Apparently there are six

Who are they?

Initially I thought ...

Murphy
Gibbs
Kreuzer
Henderson
Judd
Simpson

But then I thought having old timers in the list didn't make a lot of sense

So now I think

Murphy
Gibbs
Kreuzer - who frankly I don't think should be untouchable
Henderson
Walker
Menzel

(maybe Jamison in for Walker?)

It's a moot conversation I suppose and just because the club says there's six untouchables doesn't necessarily mean there's six untouchables but irrespective of that it's at least interesting to think which players personally one thinks ought to be untouchable

If we're looking at this from a Hindu perspective, there's probably about 16 Untouchables at the club.

Otherwise, I reckon everyone is tradable if the offer is right. Kennedy would have been off limits until Judd was dangled in front of our noses.

Mine is:

Henderson
Gibbs
Murphy
Walker
Menzel

Actually, I'd part with any if the deal was right, but those are the five I wouldn't be shopping around.

No player is untouchable if the trade improves the list for a premiership

The President Board CEO and Recruiters that got us in this mess are completely expendable

Totally agree about Mr Kreuzer

We love our own however I've always been of the opinion that Kreuzer isn't an A Grade ruckman.

Always looking at his opponent at the centre bounce and runs under the ball. Always looks bad to me.

Having said that though he does have some redeeming skills. For mine has only shown his full potential in one game a few years ago against the Swans. A knee reco doesn't help though in his defence.

Weigh it all up and I say definitely tradable!

unfortunately his trade value is peaking now and we won't even entertain it

it will be too late in 2-3 years when his value diminishes

oh well, hope he proves me wrong
