I googled him he reportedly was delisted November 2022 if that’s correct

A good question. I completely forgot about him so I looked it up. Looks like he was running around in some regional Victorian country league this season

Thanks 30yo.

I noticed James Tsitas named as a sub today against the Crows. I wish him the best but sad. It may lead to an extension on his contract.

My daughters at the crows game in their cheer squad Tsitas was doing goal kicking practice and practicing celebrating kicking a goal lol

Sounds like North are going bigtime for Tsitas

He hasn't even been delisted!

We are talking about North Adelaide and not North Melbourne I assume?

If Tsitas is delisted, the greatest challenge would be getting him to SA I suggest. I'd like to think he'd still look favourably at the Eagles even without Sheedy as his coach.
I also see Tsitas as a great coach down the track.
I can also see Sheeds coaching again in the SANFL. Perhaps when his kids are older and his business under control again. Probably back at Strut.

I wonder what Tsitas’ wife would say to a possible move to SA?

Probably "why?"

His AFL career would be done and dusted with no chance of getting re-drafted at his age. He's achieved all he can in Adelaide (Premierships, Magarey). He isn't from Adelaide and nor is she. She likely doesn't know anyone in Adelaide. His job (if he is still in the PT game) is not enhanced by moving to Adelaide given he was running it online. And it's a pain in the butt to pack up everything and move unless for a very good reason.

Basically it would be simply for love of playing local footy. And he could probably do that in any State.

Ouch ! The life of a professional footballer

A bit off topic, but Knights injury hasnt been reported in any of the injury updates recently. Anyone have any news ? Or has he left the club too?

He has been on the list every week. Also hasn't he a job as an assistant coaching at the AC women's team.

Named in the GC side again as a sub. I suspect he will remain on the GC rookie list next year.

See also that Cooper Sharman is listed on the interchange bench for St Kilda.

Poulter playing for the Bulldogs today.

Sharmo has played 14 games this year averaging about a goal a game. He's played 29 in 2 1/2 seasons.

One of the Saints best players of recent. Mark of the year nominee and all that. He would have smashed the SANFL. Our recruiters have a good eye for talent.

I see Tsitas dropped back to the VFL last week and he had a heap of touches. His Wife is preggers so the chances of him coming back to SA if he is de-listed just dropped dramatically.

Happy that no Eagle boys have been invited to AFL trial lists

Makes a change - we are likely to be hit hard in 2024 though

Very true The Barton we’d lose Welsh I think then

I think may 2 or 3 more. Kade Herbert probably 1. Borlase another.

Is Tom Jonas worth pursuing. Ex Port/Norwood player retiring.

Not bad by me straight off the top of my head didn’t think of other players

I reckon Troy Menzel might be looking to go back to Centrals, but will have to pass a strict medical assessment. If he goes back, brother Dan might also end up there.

You could be right wimpy

And Jack H finally gets another game for the Saints. And Mitch H gets onto the emergency list for Geelong. Maybe both are going to be retained.

Any delistings from Port or Adelaide we could bring to oval ave
