Wowww that's a bit of a surprise.

Fogarty yet to be reviewed. Plowman O'Brien have contracts. Setterfield about to re sign

Unless he indicated that he wasn't keen on being a full-time professional footballer, a very strange decision. At the very least, surely would have had some trade value.
Would have delisted at least 4 or 5 others before him.

That you did.

I am shocked to be sitting here. For Stocker to not even make it to the trade period. Wow!

No one will take him

Ouch it now hurts even more watching the likes of Serong and Young playing for the Dockers.

Bulldust.

Obviously there is something going on for him not even to be put up for trade.

The club surely sees what we can but they know something most of us don't.

Perhaps those trade talks have happened all year and no one was interested?

We need more athletes that can run all day but do f@#k all but get rid of natural footballers. That's been us for decades. Very, very disappointing.
No actually i'm p1$$ed......

That's the whole point.
Why would you offer contracts to Obrien and Setterfield when this bloke is everything this club needs.
He has care for his teamates
He has mongrel
He doesn't take crap
He doesn't shirk any contests
There's gotta be something more to this coz it absolutely stinks

Yes, It does stink. I had really high hopes for the kid. I don’t really get these kind of things wrong but it appears I have. Life circumstances can intervene I guess. Wouldn’t surprise me too see a club like Richmond pick him up. He is slow but they have speed in abundance.

Well, I’m surprised about Stocker. I haven’t been as big a fan as some on here but I thought he was worth another 12 months, or at least waiting until after the trade period before pulling the trigger on him.

I don't agree with the sentiment on here about the way he plays. It's due to his deficiencies that he's stuck being a smallish defender without a tank - when he should be our Tom Atkins at every stoppage. The fact that we had to throw Docherty into the middle was another nail in the Stocker coffin. He doesn't have the capacity to do it and he likely doesn't want it.

Totally staggered by stocker going.

Outrageous. Worst decision since we appointed the Madhouse.

Stocker will go on to have a great career at another club. Someone will have to take the blame.

Yep. he's unprofessional, slow and doesn't get along with any of the players.

Didn't you say the same thing when I said he wouldn't be at Carlton next year?

And yet, despite your assessment he continued to one of our best in the two’s are competed well when in the firsts - smacks of unprofessionalism and not getting on well with others
