Well, another season draws to an agonising, heartbreaking end.

Not much to do other than reflect briefly before turning our thoughts quickly to 2011.

Just perusing the list we have at the moment, which is going to change obviously, this is what I've come up with:

FB: Armfield Jamison Bower

HB: Russell White Scotland

C: Simpson Judd Lucas

HF: Yarran Waite Walker

FF: Garlett Henderson Betts

Foll: Kruezer Murphy Gibbs

I/C from: Warnock, Austin, Davies, Joseph, Carrazzo, Grigg, Ellard, Hampson, Mclean, Robinson, Jacobs

EMG: O'Keeffe, Kerr

Hopefully wildcards for us could be Austin (if he holds his place), O'Keeffe (see Austin) and Kerr, as well as whoever we pick in the draft.

granted i havent watched all of the bullants games this year, but Thouy (i think that is how its spelt) looks a likely type to work with and might get abit of a run in the big time next year.

The following players should be traded or retired.

Chris Johnson - What a waste!
Houlihan - bodering on being a list clogger now. Not in our premiership build up.
Chief - List Clogger @ best
Thornton - Passport stamped middle of the year.
Mclean - No more hacks from melbourne thanks! Persist with Haddley
Bower - Un-co! gets beaten 1 on 1 more often than not.


Target these Players
Drummond
Pavlich
and anyone else willing to put their head over the ball and block for Judd.

agree with CJ, Chief and Thornton
Houlihan kept for depth but I agree will struggle to be in best 22 for long
McLean disappointing this year but would not be giving up on him yet - I think people are a bit impatient sometimes - some players have crap years and this was one for Brock deserves a second chance
Bower - was a fan last year but his last 2 months are as bad as I have seen him. Not sure whether the quad injury meant he lost power in the legs but he was consistently over powered by his opponents. He must improve next year or we will go backward

things will depend on the interchange rule

if its heavily capped Brock might be a valuable player again

Chief is gone
I think perhaps Fisher too
And T-Bird it seems

Excluding trades, will there be many more than the required 3?
