read somewhere we have to make like 4 delistings

imo Spike and Hille very likely to retire

Slattery and others Delisted

Monfries probably gone

Fletcher i think he was going to play next year but hinjury late in season is having me second guessing it and he had few injuries/niggles all year so i'm not real confident he will play next year but hope so

even if some of the above happens will free up some cash on top of what we had spare already i think we can afford both and i don't think Moloney will be asking for that much
Luckily they're all on the vet list so don't have to worry. :)

Does anybody know if the vet salaries contributes to the 92.5%? I wouldn't think so but not entirely sure.

Fletch74

I would think not as well, but I thought there was a limit to how many veterans you could have - 2?

Spike has already gone...

Hille will either go or retire, and Fletch will stay on ;)

Hille would retire before he left I think. He's been offered a 1 year deal IIRC, can take it and go around again or retire.

Goddard confirmed to have played a round of golf with Bomber Thompson, obviously doesn't mean he's coming to us but it does mean he's considering us.

On top of that, apparently Milne (off air) said he thought God would be leaving St Kilda on the footy show last night.
