Its going to be really interesting if Nick Austin enters this years Draft with 1st round draft pick in hand, and Camporeale twins are taken with our 2nd and 4th rounders.
That's 3 spots that need to be vacated to get them in, then there's 2 more delistings/ demotions to be made for last year rookies Cottrell and Owies.
Not sure how that 3 year contract to Cottrell works. Has he already been promoted to main list in the past? If so, I missed it.
Crusader would know.
Yeah, Cottrell was moved to the main list in the preseason. Owies the year before.
To the best of my knowledge, the rookie list is:
Mirkov (Cat A, MSD) - Final year
Boyd (Cat A, MSD) - Final year
S.Durdin (Cat A, MSD) - Final year
Cincotta (Cat A, SSP) - 2nd year
O’Keeffe (Cat A, SSP) - 2nd year
M.Carroll (Cat A, RD) - 1st year
Akuei (Cat B, NGA) - Final year
Monahan (Cat B, Int.) - 1st year
We’ve got a commitment to add Duffy for 2025, which would likely see Akuei off.
Unlikely that Boyd survives a full ND to be re-rookied as Cottrell was, so we would need to elevate him at the end of the season.
Mirkov can go back to teaching, knowing that he gave it a good shot.
Durdin, just my humble, has options. If he can hold together, there’s a spot for him. Otherwise, he’s got his CFMEU card.
All in all, I have 2025 as:
Cat A1. Cincotta - 3rd & final year before elevation or re-draft
2. O’Keeffe - 3rd & final year
3. M.Carroll - 2nd year
4. Vacant
5. Vacant
6. Vacant
Cat B1. Monahan - 2nd year
2. Duffy - 1st year
