A couple of references in media that Rowe and Lamb have got another contract - I hope both are playing regularly for NB in 2019 - Lamb was ok in 2018 and did some good work late in backline when defence decimated -Rowe in my view had his worse season in about 4 and is very lucky to be offered another contract


Surely there are better key defenders than Rowe in the WAFL or SANFL that we could use for depth ??

In the Hun it reports they are in limbo as no contract offered as yet. It will depend on trades. The same with Nick G.

I see a potential role for Lamb as a BP to annoy the shit out of crumbing forwards that always kill us, and I unfortunately see Rowe as our only KPD capable of playing on the "Gorillas" at this stage.

But I agree, if both play most/all of the season in the VFL that will be a plus.

Delist Rowe and Lamb, draft in some depth players from WAFL/SANFL, then endure a year of "X is terrible, why delist Lamb and Rowe then get these guys who are worse?" if they end up playing a lot of seniors.

I'd say that is the case. If we get the appropriate trades, they'll be farewelled.

Maybe we should trade our mid-first round PP from next year for him then?

I saw that in the HUN. I was surprised too, especially Rowe.
We currently only have 2 senior spots available so someone has to go, Graham likely.
We may go in with one less rookie and an extra senior player 40/4, but it will be interesting to see who gets moved on.

Rowe was always going to struggle this year coming back from a knee reconstruction, it didn’t help having to play in a backline that was pounded all year given he was marginal at AFL to begin with.

He is a good back up KPD because he knows our system unlike any other player brand new to the club. We’ve all seen what happens when you flood the list with new players, no matter how good they night be.

He can add stability to the NB’s and mentor new/younger players into the club. Happy to give him one year.

If he’s constantly playing seniors next year then the club is up s**t creek regardless of what other marginal player we might have replaced him with.

It would be a shame to leave Rowe on 99 games.

Rowe and Lamb are not up to it, end of story. Could easily say the same about 8 others, if we aren't going to replace them with better players what are we even doing?
Just f###ing bend over and get used to the reaming, excuses after excuses that's what this club now is.

If he was at a real football club he wouldn't have got to 49 games.

I hope we sign him up for one year and then he plays all season for the NB’s except for a late season call up to replace someone injured for his 100th.

Rowe has been a great servant, but I think he only made it to 99 due to injuries to others.

It’s not even trade week and I’m already sick of hearing “Hawthorn are the frontrunners”

If we pay anything more than pick 60 for Fasolo we need to just fold, DFA written all over him, they wanted to get rid of him last year. Can't imagine why we are even interested!!
But then again this is a club that wanted Smedts O'Shea Kerridge etc etc on it's list smfh.
