Irrespective on how you rate individual players, why are we so amateurish when it comes to list management.
Other teams tend to do their delisting AFTER the trade period as they may get some kind of return This is particularly important when a team, let's say Fremantle, is short on draft picks and in need of points to use on NGA products (hint, hint)
Even a couple of picks in the 60s and 70s can be used to add some points to the equation but good old Freo, delist, delist, delist every year before the trade period and that makes it certain we will get no value from those players. It seems an odd way to do business
