"It's up to the rest of the players in the room to make a new batch of premiership players next year," Adam Goodes, triple Bob Skilton Medallist, October 7, 2011.
We won't know until the deadline to nominate up to 2 veterans has passed.
And if we know whether Playfair is surviving or retiring. And if Kennelly is returning or staying put. And which, if any, of the rookies have been retained or promoted. Presumably they are all staying put in some shape of form, other than the Irsh duo, or we'd have heard some more goodbyes by now.
Interesting that the club has not offically delisted Kyle Coney despite notifying the AFL that Brendan Murphy has finished.
The club must thinks he could still be a chance to return.

But he wasn't even here for the entire season so maybe they are assuming that the AFL knows he is gone.

You don't assume, you have to offically notify the AFL of de-listments etc in order to cancel contracts and the AFL to sign off final payments, AFLPA retirement fund etc etc etc.
If he has not been delisted as yet the club must still think he is an outside chance to return and are giving it till the last momment.
If they are not going to use all the rookie spots they may even leave him on for the final year (sans payment of course).

*** Nathan 'Nipper' Gordon has been elevated from scholarship to Rookie List. Also word is Ryan Bottin-Noonan (scholarship) has not been given an extension or a rookie spot. Hopefully he still gets a chance to prove himself via toppies list.
