Think your Hawks will make a play and have both brothers on the wings?
Not sure, wouldn't be surprised if we maybe looked at him as a rookie.
Probably a bit of a wait and see. Wonder if there might be a few clubs that have some slight interest in him given he's had a few years in the system to fill a hole on a wing on the cheap.

Do you happen to have any inside word on if any of our uncontracted players will be offered contracts? Think there's 6 on the list (Brooksby, Jiath, Jones, Koschitske, Moore and Walker). There's multiple there I would like to see given another chance.

Nah nothing at this stage, it's quite annoying actually.
Kosi I'm almost certain has a deal on the table, I'm not sure what the hold up is, maybe they are just awaiting TPP and stuff to determine how many years it is. Jones I do know has had some interest from other clubs, including GWS, I believe he was told early on in the piece he would likely be delisted and that it was going to come down to list sizes and how we went during trade period.
Moore is the one I'm really hoping gets another deal, but as yet (or last I heard) he hadn't had anything official put in front of him.

The AFL has dismissed the idea of a second trade period this year.
Given the uncertainty around list size cuts, the league had considered creating another trade window before Christmas in order to allow clubs to better adapt to the impending changes.

Speaking to The Age, AFL executive Andrew Dillon said the league, “had a serious look at it but the feedback from clubs, the AFLPA, was that it was unnecessary.”

Wasn't our best tall DEF, and we have a few, but I'm still surprised that happened.
Maybe gets back as a Rookie, or something.
Don’t think we will rookie him. We also delisted Nietshcke today but have committed to rookie him while no mention of taking O Mac as a rookie.

North Melb.

Carlton has delisted four players, with Harrison Macreadie, Callum Moore, Fraser Phillips and Cam Polson told they will not be offered new contracts for the 2021 season.

They join Hugh Goddard, Darcy Lang, Finbar O’Dwyer and Ben Silvagni out the door at Ikon Park.



The club has however committed to midfielder Matthew Kennedy, but will pick him up via the upcoming AFL Rookie Draft.

Small forward Matthew Owies will also be retained as a Category B Rookie.

A key defender, Macreadie struggled with injury and didn’t feature at AFL level in 2020, while Polson was moved into defence and managed three games late in the season.

Moore was picked up in the supplemental selection period as a depth ruckman, while Phillips was selected in the 2019 Rookie Draft.
