    yeah - no official announcement but the afl website has him cut from the list, strange that it wasn't announced along with the others

    i'm not suprised if he has been cut, nor would i be if it's just another stuff up on afl.com.au

      I heard all rookies except Nick Potter were cut from the list. Unlucky for Luke, apparently he showed some form and promise in the magoos.

        Im not overly worried about them cutting rookie listed players - I have never heard of any decent player who has been cut from a rookie list and then played well with anohter club.

          Agree it's rare but not unheard of.

          Nathan Lovett-Murray was on the Pies rookie list a year or two back and showed some signs this year for Essendon.

          Others may be able to provide other examples.

            Milne the ****er was on, Essendon's rookie list at one stage.

            One of Carrazzo and Bentick was on a rookie list at one stage, there definitly promising.

              Too many delistings we will end up in debt.
              Vicky Pollard: Oh my god I so can't believe you just said that this is like the time I threw Anita's nokia in the canal as a joke and she's like you have well got to buy me another one and I'm like get over it and then Paul came over who's adopted anyway and started saying that I fancy Mark Bennett but oh my god just because I have sex with someone doesn't mean I fancy them.

                  Yep - Carazzo was on Geelong's list, and has just been promoted to Carlton's senior list.

                    Great player, went all right for the school team. Unlucky at Geelong, played some very good football for their VFL team, but was never promoted, so left for Carlton's rookie list and got a few games this year. The kid has some fair talent.
                    Once was, now elsewhere

                        Yes mixed with home sickness from memory - but Geelong had one of the great midfields going around at that time, so no great surprise.

                          There is a rule that rookies must be either promoted or delisted after a specified number of years. This is to give them a chance to get drafted by another club who might give them more opportunity.

                          This is why you often see rookies delisted then picked up again.

                          I don't remember how long the period is - 2 years I think - or whether there are exceptions (imports like Tadhg might have different rules?)

                            yeah, the fruitcake is right. If we keep cutting players that arent being played and are costing us $$ then we will end up in debt....good form.
                            - Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in a world they've been given, than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact, it's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration, it's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing!

                              Rookie lists weren't in existence back then - not sure whether he was on their senior list or maybe even u/19s
