If anything, Ruscoe should have been selected ahead of Ryan last night. |
I think it was Ryan's extra pace which got him selected ahead of Ruscoe. That said, I would definitely pick him this week to replace Murphy. |

Looks like the first of the delistings occurred today if Trey's insta account is accurate. _________________ I love the Pies, hate Carlscum |

Sad, but not unexpected. Always liked Trey even when he had his critics.
Hope he gets another chance and excels elsewhere. _________________ | 1902 | 1903 | 1910 | 1917 | 1919 | 1927 | 1928 | 1929 | 1930 | 1935 | 1936 | 1953 | 1958 | 1990 | 2010 | 2023 | |

A shame to hear. It was strange how he played so well in his one match this season and never got another chance – it always seemed that it was only due to the strength of our defence, and that he would be a necessary depth player going forward. Hope he gets another chance elsewhere.
Here's the post, by the way: https://www.instagram.com/p/Cx-Muz6Pvzr/

Plenty of comments from other players under the post (like, literally every player on the list; seems they're all on Instagram nowadays!). _________________ All watched over by machines of loving grace |

Speaking of Collingwood players on Instagram, I just saw this post from Charlie Dean's account – seems like all or most of the list who didn't get a premiership medallion doing a group shot on the podium after the game: https://www.instagram.com/p/Cx9ugfFRucp/ _________________ All watched over by machines of loving grace |

Surely Trey is a trade back to West Coast. Was too good for the VFL and stuck in a strong defensive queue. Can’t fathom him being delisted otherwise _________________ Premiership Pies made it legendary in 2023, don’t let them forget it. #Go PIES 2024…. |

Its a shame, but I think young Kelly might join him, has not really worked out has it. Does not always work out being sons of former players, like it has so well for trhe Moores and Daiscoses, look at both the Brown boys. ? _________________ Poverty exists not because we cannot feed the poor, but because we cannot satisfy the rich.

A really good player who could get a regular game on another list, so you can't begrudge him the opportunity.
It's pretty normal to have some turnover on the edge of the list, while you never know when you might get another Checkers, Coxy, Noble, Ginni out of nowhere, so it's probably a good thing. _________________ In the end the rain comes down, washes clean the streets of a blue sky town.

You have to have 3 spots every year which makes it hard. I would imagine Kelly and Bianco would be the others
Tom Wilson probably wont be offered another contract (He has been a rookie for more than 3 years now) and I imagine Cooper Murley will also go (another rookie spot).
Arlo Draper is probably borderline - potentially could be rookied. Id love to see Bianco hang around but I dont think it will happen
Its always tough this time of year but the difference is we have a premiership cup to ease the pain _________________ Painful frustrating disappointing exhilarating and unbelievably awesome. - That's a Collingwood life through and through |

I think the knock on Trey is that he sometimes misses easy targets even when under minimum pressure. Saw him do this in one VFL game, when in a stop play situation (mark or free kick) he missed a team mate less than 30 metres away, kicked the ball right over his head straight to an opponent and it resulted in an opposition goal. A real face palm moment.
He certainly has a lot of good features and I think he can make it at AFL level, especially if he can clean up this element of his game.
I hope he gets another opportunity. _________________ Side by side. |

I could be wrong, but the timing of the announcement suggests he’s being delisted rather than traded, right? That is, if he were on the trade table, we wouldn’t be making any final decisions about his spot on the list until after the trade period (even if he and the club both know his contract won’t be renewed)?
It probably doesn’t matter as he’ll hopefully be picked up in the draft anyway. But it sounds like he’s been told definitively rather than informed that he’s being shopped around. _________________ All watched over by machines of loving grace |

^That would be a tragedy; he's miles too good to not get a spot on a list. Hopefully, being next in line in the premier team in the comp bodes well for him. _________________ In the end the rain comes down, washes clean the streets of a blue sky town.
