Wanganeen unlikely early based on this.

Yeah he'll definitely be put on the inactive list in the hope he either changes his mind at the end of the season or mandates get dropped at some stage. The bigger decision on terminating his contract and de-registering him will take place after the season.
Would imagine we will also bring 700-800k of next years salary forward (maybe TK & Gov?) to give us a war chest to go after a big fish if we do terminate Darling.
Might even be able so sign a 4th player by moving Sheed to the inactive list with him being out over half the season.

There was another tweet related to this that I saw saying Strnadica was injured as well.
Wanganeen has bust written all over it to me as a pick. Kicked a couple of nice goals after coming on entirely fresh against exhausted players. If he plays it's going to be a really bad role. Walla is one of the best small forwards in the comp and he's been a mid 60s guy in the exact role, Wanganeen isn't matching that.
Personally still be surprised if he plays, Martin looked a long way ahead of him if they're playing those guys but I don't really see the opening for either.
B - Redman Stewart Kelly
HF - Ridley Laverde Hind
C - Heppell Parish Cox
HF - Snelling Francis Caldwell
F - Wright Jones Smith
R - Draper Merrett Stringer
Int - McGrath Langford Shiel Perkins
Then you've got Cutler, Hobbs, Guelfi, Ham, Waterman and Durham who I'd think are at least on a level playing field for a spot with the last couple of guys picked.
It's actually an impressively deep side right now. You could argue a Francis type goes out for one more small but realistically I think even Caldwell is going to have to maintain his spot in the side.

Hugh Dixon signed at the Eagles. Now let's hope that one game he played in 2019 doesn't inflate his price.
