Gilbert is signed until end of 2012. McEvoy signed a new contract last year.... We only made 1 big announcement last year, so nothing to be worried about...

[ando051]

No concern at all. We will sort all that out at the end of the year.

[defacto]

i thought that the players out of contract at the end of this year are:
- dawson
- kozi
- clarke
- mcqualter
- ray
- steven
- armitage
- gilbert
- baker
- blake
- polo

This is the list i have been able to find via different articles, press releases. Damian Barratt a while ago on TFS confirmed 7 of the blokes out of contract this year.

Zac was offered new contract earlier in year but nothing has ever come out about whether or not he signed it. Numerous articles have mentioned, and his manager has mentioned Gilbert is signed til next year.

2013
Nick Riewoldt
Nick Dal Santo
Nicholas Winmar

2012
Brendon Goddard
Lenny Hayes
Kosi
Adam Schneider
Jason Gram
Leigh Montagna
Sam Fisher
Stephen Milne
James Gwilt
Ben McEvoy
Alistar Smith
Sam Gilbert
Rhys Stanley

2011
Steven Baker - not being offered new contract
Jason Blake
David Armitage - rumours say he only signed a 1 year deal last year.
Jack Steven
Raphael Clarke
Farren Ray
Dean Polo
Andrew McQualter
Robert Eddy
Zac Dawson
Clint Jones
Michael Gardiner - retiring at seasons end

[bobmurray]

if Ross wants to cut deep then some have to be out of contract and then survive the review and then maybe trade week.....

I have difficulty with this part of your post....
considering atleast one or two names he stated had already signed in the mid 2010 list...

Damien Barret Suggested may be a more appropriate word

given he is one of several journos who ' suspect, and state " rather than check - ala rumours thurs and friday.. that proved to be innuendo and supposition.

Yea i know couple people signed but it was never stated anywhere for how long. Unless ive missed a article or press release but ive done a pretty good search.... Who are these 2 that you say are signed until next year and where is the link to how long??

[saintbrat]

without going back and checking the video I'm pretty sure he mentioend Ben and Kosi

and as you've shown above both signed till end of next year

[stkildathunda]

The 7 he mentioned were these guys, i made note of it on TS at the time... Who were all on my list as ending this year...

David Armitage
Jack Steven
Farren Ray
Dean Polo
Andrew McQualter
Zac Dawson
Brett Peake

[saintbrat]

ok
I thought he mentioned kosi.

[ThePunter]

Buried in the H-S yesterday was the fact that Bakes will not be offered another contract.

[saintsRrising]

Michael Gardiner - retiring at seasons end

Has there actually been a quote on this anywhere, or is it just a common assumption?

Ross said after game last night that its highly unlikely he will go on...

[saintbrat]

personally I'm happy for them to concentrate on the next few weeks
and given we are at TPP capacity I'm guessing the Player and AFL arrangements and discussions will be slowing things down

when speaking to a few players a while ago I suggested it would be a bit like a game of dominos- you work on th front end and see what falls into place further down.
