Surprised Norf didnt look to move these guys on and get some picks for them.

Very interesting move, thought they were building to something but with 8 cut its like they are re-building

Think they may have tried with Anthony...but really, delisting these blokes gives North 3 spots remaining on the senior list, where they intend to use picks 16, 25 and 36.

So I believe if they got a pick later than 36 for Anthony it wouldn't have been used anyway.

Can't tell if you're being serious or sarcastic with the last comment anyway so I'm just going to leave it alone.  :P

I want Cam to join Luke at the Saints!

pretty sure you guys are gonna rookie list him via the RD. think I read that somewhere

Yes with Waite, Higgins, Turner and Tippett, they had to delist 6 from the senior list.  Any less than 6 and they would have had to pass on pick 36, which would be un-heard of.

Saw this comment on Reddit about Nahas...

"a handy player. but personally, he's no great loss since Demetriou doesn't read out the brownlow votes anymore."

Haha, I saw that too.

Gil's speed-reading could stuff it up nicely.

Other than Waite ..all the other big forwards having issues? Interesting lead up to the pre season cup.

Brad Scott hopes supporters can "SEE" the succession plan for Drew Petrie. WHAT???? :o replace  the old man Petrie with the old man Jarred Waite and keep the kids outta the senior team, so they eventually crack the showers and request a trade to another club to get greater opportuinities. Yep I can see that, brilliant!!

NORTH Melbourne defender Aaron Mullett is likely to be sidelined until mid-May after having surgery to repair a torn labrum in his left shoulder.

On Tuesday, North said the 22-year-old was expected to be sidelined until round seven after going under the knife on Monday.

The Roos play Essendon on Friday, May 15 in round seven.

Mullett had a few shoulder issues at the end of last year but the Roos were hopeful he would get through 2015 unscathed.

But North’s director of sports science and training services Steve Saunders said Mullett had suffered further damage over past two months.

"The consensus was that Aaron would be fine to get through another season and we'd review him again at the end of the year," Saunders told the club’s website.

"New symptoms developed, we've reinvestigated these and found new pathology in his shoulder joint."

More to come

Reports coming out that Leigh Adams has hurt his knee. Mark Stevens saying he hyper-extended it but club will know more in the next 24hours, not ruling out ACL damage.

What is everyones thoughts on MacMillan is he worth a look in for supercoach is he best 21 and also what role will he play?

roo boys!

Good player but hard to know what impact Higgins coming into the side will have and whether MacMillan will be sent to a more defensive role. Probably about a 70 average from him, I didn't have him in my preseason best 21 but in hindsight I reckon he could quite comfortably slot into the back 6 and hold his spot

Bit of a waste in defensive role as he is so elite by foot?

The club is tweeting that Nathan Grima will miss 12-14 weeks with a back injury and will have surgery tomorrow

Should just retire. Enough is enough.
