Curnow has to go too. He's a plodder with not much upside and exposed on his weaknesses.

Kreuzer you keep. No point trading him off.

Depends what you can get. I'd have them all on the table at the moment

I honestly don't think the Curnow's and even Cachia's are going to be part of our next premiership team.
Why hasn't Laidler and Duigan been used more? We saw how those two players were very good 2 seasons ago, Mick hasn't really even given them a go...
Armfield, Betts, Simpson have been extremely disappointing this year.

We'll have to win 6 of our last 8 games to make the 8 this year ... not going to happen

Laidler has been average at best in the seconds, Duigan has been better but obviously not in the future plans


Yeah but they are playing Laidler forward and experimenting with him, he is a backman. Malthouse hasn't given Laidler a good go at all and with his height could play on a tall forward (B. Reid) and allow Hendo to go forward more bcoz Waite can never stay on the park

no matter what game plan he had this team is not a top 8 side it was 2-3 yrs ago but not know. Roos said it pre game Carltons window has closed due to very poor recruiting


Yes, missed Talia when we should've got him then overreacted with taking all talls the next year, none of which have worked our bar McInnes. The only key position pick that has any chance of working out is Casboult and we got him way down in deep in the rookie list.

Kreuzer has value. Trade him.

Not much else does so we have a huge dilemma.

Id trade Kreuzer for Hudson. One of the recruiting errors in my opinion

Hendo may have to stand up and go forward now.

Have bailed out and am on the platform at Richmond. Very very disappointing effort by a number of players. Will say more later

Give Mitchell an opportunity. See if he has what it takes at Senior level.

We MUST trade Kreuzer now while he has SOME value rather than wait 2 or 3 years and we give him away, a la Jordan Russell

Pagan-like.

Kick and hope a la 2006.

2nd tier is a premiership contender's 4th tier.

Gibbs IS on the ground. I just saw him in the background.

Excuse my indulgence with this revisionist rant but 2 years ago I said that Cotchin and Martin were ahead of Murphy and Gibbs. As usual, the so called experts on this site shot me down.

Cotchin + Martin >>>>>>>>>>>>> Murphy + Gibbs
