Why bother delisting then?

I could be completely wrong, but i see it as us intending on using 4 picks in the draft, or 3 & a free agent signing, and will re-sign Collins to the rookie list after that. The reason we would have chosen Collins over a player like Joseph or Davies is that he may be more likely to get picked up as a free agent himself, which would create the list space and relieve cap space.. Could have it totally wrong tho..

Its good to have options up our sleeve. If someone superior doesnt eventuate, Collins may get another opportunity.

Thank goodness we have given ourselves an option for someone superior (if they are there)...I'm not a big Collins fan...just can't see where he fits in TBH. Too light, with some tricks, OK engine, but a bit slow for mine.

Get the best available.

We still cant use pick 71, as technically now we have 4 spots left, and if we use 3 in the ND and 1 in the preseason draft to get Collins, then back to square one. Please explain ?
Used to officially up grade a rookie. Has to be offically done with a draft pick, any old draft pick after the 3 ND picks.

Upgrade will happen with our fifth pick. We still have 4 spots to fill.

On the basis Blue Vain is right I agree this flexibility is good strange that we have to wait until the trade period and FA to do it
Surely we would be looking at Toy

Eric Pascoe just posted that its highly unlikely that Collins will be picked up due to MM not rating him at all.

Yep, we can pass at pick 71 and then upgrade rookies with the next picks.

So Collins gets the chop ahead of AJ, Davies, White, Curnow etc?

I must be missing something. I thought i had half an idea about footy. I obviously don't.

Don't feel bad, not many here do.

Someone just mentioned Malthouse doesn't rate him.

Does Collins have a contract for next season?
