Going down the ‘but we had this player’ path again.
Happens every year after our first few losses.
Yawn.

Even though he’s broken, I think Hampson is still on Rickmond’s list

Hampson, Buckley...

How many of them get a grand final game in 3 years time?

And with their 0 games this year, aren’t they making us pay!

Sure, but what about the rest? Anyway ....

Gibbs we got good value for, Bell has been poor at Brisbane, Henderson loss hasn’t hurt us, Tuohy has been great at Geelong, Gowers and Holman yet to prove themselves. The others are from another regime and don’t impact on my perception of the current coach or list manager.

Henderson’s loss hasn’t hurt us .... fmd - la la land....
Next you’ll tell me we don’t miss Gibbs or couldn’t do with either Tuohy, Waite, Betts, Garlett, Grigg.....

Spin away - obvously makes you feel better!

Bell is playing NEAFL

Any chance of us getting Sloane IF he comes home??
If so, what is the price we would need to pay??
He is a FA but may cost us $800k??
Would love a Sloane type in the middle.
Just a thought.

Grigg was a shit truck at Carlton and would’ve been delisted seasons ago had he stayed.

Nah. Classic example of pulling the trigger too soon and he left out of frustration.
We don't want to keep anybody on the list who doesn't win a Brownlow in their first two seasons or less.

There’s 2 players stuffing up our team balance as we go forward.

Liam Jones and Levi Casboult.

Move them on at the end of the year and free up Weitering Marchbank Macreadie Silvagni McKay Charlie Kerr and DeKoning to develop in their roles.

He retired in the finals last year

Didn’t you read his post? He said we’re unbalanced, as soon as we rebalance we’ll be able to move in the natural direction...

I agree with the Liam Jones part because I think by next year we will have enough game and age experience in defence but I'm not sure about Casboult leaving. I'm far from his biggest fan but the forward would be worse without him as an option at times at the moment. Saying that I would like him slowly phased out of the team and gone by the end of 2019.

if we can provide pressure up the field this might help jones and if we can deliver the ball probably to casbolt (great mark) this will help both players unfortunately our mids are to slow , so eveyone suffers.
