Every year less and less delisted players are getting a second crack at senior football, its quite sad really. Some players that missed out today include Troy Makepeace, Harry Miller, Troy Schwarze, Jason Cloke... just to name a few. Is this mainly because the national draft was so good that clubs went for youth or is this trend going to continue for the next few years?
Very happy to get Mal Michael though, much needed help for Fletch!!![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif)

As clubs get more serious about their list management, they become less interested in other clubs rejects and prefer to go with youth unless there is someone of real quality available or a player that meets a specific need.
I think this trend will continue indefinitely unless there comes a time when list sizes actually are allowed to grow.
