A lot can change between now and mid-December, but following the reports of those who are out of contract and might put themselves into the PSD, I make out:

Luke Ball
Jesse Smith
Joel MacDonald
Mark Nicoski
Richard Hadley (I take it he's OOC)
Shane Tuck (still contracted but may negotiate a settlement to be released)
Sam Power
Daniel Harris
David Wojcinski
Matt Maguire
Matthew Spangher

Maybe one or two others may be squeezed out of Brisbane, Geelong, St Kilda or W.Bulldogs depending on salary cap issues.

Given we've got pick 5 I'm not sure there is going to be a lot to get excited about. We seem to have had a passing interest in Nicoski. You'd have to assume Ball would be taken, even nominating a large salary, prior to pick 5.

[Donners]

Melbourne's salary cap room means that we are unlikely to get the best available. At least we will have some spare cash to re-sign players.

[ugg]

Brisbane will have to delist a few given how many they've brought in. I'm not sure whether we are interested in their scraps.

[LRTs LoveChild]

If it was 2 years ago, you'd take Matt Maguire in a heartbeat. But since his injury, like Nathan Brown, he'll never be back to his best.

[caj23]

Luke Ball yes please but will re-sign or be snapped up before us
Jesse Smith yes subject to medical
Joel MacDonald yes, although if past PSDs are anything to go by he'll probably be the no1 pick
Mark Nicoski meh maybe ??
Richard Hadley (I take it he's OOC) Still contracted
Shane Tuck (still contracted but may negotiate a settlement to be released) I'd say tiges will keep him unless they are certain he will find another home
Sam Power No thanks
Daniel Harris no thanks
David Wojcinski yes, although will probably be pick 2!!
Matt Maguire Yep subject to medical
Matthew Spangher reckon he will either sign with WCE or be enticed by Dees/Tiges

.

a couple of potentials there although the injury clouds are a negative. I suspect that us, the Dees and Tiges will all be getting into uncontracted players ears so there may be something for us to play with

There's rumours Bradshaw may nominate if he & Brisbane can't come to terms.

Daniel Harris - No
David Wojcinski - No
Matt Maguire - Yes
Matthew Spangher - No
Daniel Bradshaw - He can be added to the list as he says he might retire and come into the Pre-Season draft

Thats mine

There were rumours he'd retired as well.

[Go Swannies]

It'd be fun to have him play on the Doggies new CHF though - especially in a PF.

[ugg]

There's rumours Bradshaw may nominate if he & Brisbane can't come to terms.

He signed a contract extension earlier this year, so the only way he's going into the PSD is he Brisbane sack and pay him out.

How is the order of the PSD list arranged and by whom? How are the picks allocated? It sounds like this structure prevents us picking early?

Picks are allocated in the same manner as the national draft, but with no priority picks. Ergo we have pick 5.

I'd love to have Wojcinkski at Sydney- a very underated player when playing well imo.

[sidswan]

Woj for me too

[robamiee]

i think you will find a few other names on there like Mark Coughlan ( i think it is Mark from the tigers)
if he is avail subject to a medical i would atke him in a heartbeat..
very talented player
