Ryan Houlihan made it clear in the interview on carltonfc.com.au that he has to perform as a defender before he can graduate as a midfielder under Pagan. He is learning this role now, and after a few years is solid if not very good. I get the impression that Pagan wants defensive midfielders in there, just like Port and Brissy have done so successfully over the past few years.

I think Sporn is in the same boat. His long striding and great disposal beg for a role on the wing, but he is thrown back as part of his learning.

Pagan is developing Sporn and Houlihan as well rounded midfielders for the future. Both are still very young and are exceptional kicks.

Playing defence is part of the learning process for Sporn, and he is doing well, no doubt about it. Caracella had a few kicks in the last but who didn't, given the midfield stopped running.

In my mind, Sporn and Houla will be retained as they are playing team roles and developing for the future. There is no doubt to me that Pagan sees them as key players.

Pagan was asked about Houla's role this year on Fox Footy's season preview show and he said he would be playing him more in the midfield or wing this year. May have had to adjust this due to injuries to himself and also to our other defenders.

I've given this some thought, and here's a list of who I reckon should go:

Bannister - Unable to run the mile as fast as his English namesake. Must go.

Bentick - The 'Bent' part of his name alludes to a recreational drug problem. Get rid of him before he causes a stir.

Betts - Ok, he's kicked a couple of goals in his first few games, but he's as useless as tits on a bull in a ruck contest. Seeya Eddie.

Blackwell - Has done bugger all in the three months since his arrival. Obviously a passenger.

Bowyer - Once again, his English namesake had an on-field punch-up with a teammate. We can't risk that happening here. Out the door.

Bryan - Wears number 27, Darren Hulme's number. Hulme couldn't kick, we can't risk this again.

Camporeale - It's not the discipline, or the downhill skiing, it's the facial hair. Either grow a beard or piss off. I'm guessing the answer will be the latter.

Carrazzo - Doesn't sit the ball on a pin head from sixty metres the twenty odd times per game he gets hold of it.

Chambers - Came from West Coast and isn't as good as Judd. We don't need players that aren't as good as Judd.

Clarke - His legs look funny.

Davies - Hasn't kicked eight in a game like every other forward pocket in the league does week in, week out.

De Luca - Too old, and his neck is way too long for its own good.

Fevola - His agent might have the audacity to ask for a salary matching one of the top ten forwards in the league. Also, his attitude is not the best - we should trade him for someone with a better attitude - Richo or Tarrant perhaps?

Fisher - Is clearly faking a knee injury. If he doesn't get himself right for next week, then out he goes too.

French - Two words: BIG EARS. Out.

Adam Hartlett - To qoute Janet Jackson: What has he done for us lately?

Houlihan - From a distance he looks like a girl.

Johnson: Try him at CHB this week against Tredrea. If Tredrea gets a sniff of the ball, then it's time for the chop.

Kouta: I don't like the way he stretches during the warm up. Makes me feel socially uncomfortable.

Lappin: Wears those silly light blue boots. Time for the royal order.

Livo - I don't like people with double initials (ie LL). Tell your story walking.

Longmuir - Not as good as his brother.

McGrath - Not as good a opening bowler as his namesake Glenn.

Morrell - Has a porn star name, thus more social discomfort.

Norman - The soul patch went out with Miami Vice. Don't let the door knock you on the arse on the way out.

Prenda - No-one likes a man with a flat top.

Raso - Looks like a bird. G-O-N-E.

Russell - Probably a better journo than Dwayne. Should give that a run.

Scotland - Repeated (ie one) disciplinary issues.

Simpson - Refuses to get possessions from the pine. Unacceptable.

Sporn - Not as good as his cousin Kieran, who run amock from a wing for the dons once. During training. On his own before anyone else got there. Maybe.

Stevens - Looks too much like a game show host. Should change his name to Guy Smiley and move into tv.

Teague - When commentators say 'looks for Teague' it sounds like 'looks fatigued'. An obvious indicator into some fitness issues.

Thornton - Never trust anyone called Bret that spells it with one 'T'. Has also done stuff-all since third quarter of Wiz cup final.

Waite - Hasn't become the best CHF since Royce Hart yet, even though it might not be his best possie. Obviously doesn't want it enough.

Walker - The name is the issue here - Walker! Shouldn't he be running? LAZY BASTARD!

Whitnall - Doesn't take mark of the year nominations every week.Should be taking marks while surrounded by 13 opposition players, all armed with various kung-fu weaponry.

Wiggins - He can stay.

So there we have it. Take these blokes out of the equation and we might just have a team worthy of our interest.

Thank the lord! I thought you'd lost it for a second. Remember we'll still have our Rookie list as well.

Its all so clear now, thanks Deano. While we're at it, can we ditch that Denis guy - after all, he's a pagan and doesn't believe in God. We must be god-fearing around here.

Also, that President guy - piss him off. Question over his health.

Great post Deano, hopefully the intended targets of your "irony" will get the message.

I'm with you, support the boys in blue through thick and thin.

And in that spirit, the Gnome will now resume the erect position.

That gnome needs a name... I suggest 'Stretch'

Which players do you think will be cut at end of the year
