Silvagni's delisting brings the number of 'Outs' on our list to 9 Seniors (Pav, De Boer, Mzungu, Barlow, Grey, Silvagni, Hannath, C Pearce, Mayne) and 4 Rookies (Morabito, Smith, DeLuca, Hurley). Total 13.
'Ins' so far: 4 senior list players (McCarthy, B Hill, Kersten,Hamling). Net loss 9
FFC has indicated intention to take Grey, DeLuca as rookies. Net loss 7.
With picks 7, 35, 40, 71, 79, 97 and an indication that four or five will be drafted, plus 1 more rookie, it still leaves at least one place for the Pre-Season draft to establish total squad of 45 players (40 seniors + 5 rookies).
Taking five in the draft means we'll take pick 79 — is such a player likely to be as much value as keeping either Barlow or Silvagni on the list?
Have we ever seen such a large turnover anywhere in the club's history?
