So according to you blokes we should delist Bail, Jones, McKenzie, Tapscott and Evans this year, and use picks 53, 80, 97 and PSD2.
And then tell me what we do next year? Cross retires perhaps? Then what??
Show me where I said delist.

Quite ironic coming from a guy who the only thing you can come up for these guys is "but they work hard".
I simply noted that they won't play much in 2015 because of what we've brought in, they'll spend the year at Casey unless we get seriously crippled.
This all started because I said that proven guys will start ahead of the younger more talented ones
Both of us are making assumptions , I'm assuming that Roos will want to take a settled line up into the start of the season
Others are assuming the young blokes will step up and become better more rounder players thus leaving us no use for the battlers
Either way we need something else to discuss
Not sure if mentioned yet, but the AFL article about 2/3 of the Trio so mentioned Harmes getting a one year extension on his Rookie list contract.
Fair enough.
I do agree with Nick and think they're still ahead of Salem, JKH and Toumpas - but fingers crossed that will change over the course of the year.
I saw The Tea Party in concert the other day. They've still got it!!
Must have got lost amongst the "is Bail a spud" existential crisis.Go back a page
I think that's the point. If Bail, M Jones, Terlich, McKenzie, etc are still getting regular games ahead of Salem, Toumpas, JKH, etc by the end of next year it either means:
[/SIZE]
- We had injury issues;
- Bail, M Jones, Terlich, McKenzie miraculously broke through the ceiling that they appear to have hit;
- Salem, JKH and Toumpas have failed to develop as we had hoped. We all stand around yanking at our collars and muttering "Oh God, it's happening again...".
I may have had a little crush on Sarah McLeod back in the day....
Maybe; has pace and can snag a couple of goals so could make an okay HFF type of player. Would need a strong team around him to make space though and be able to carry a player who struggles to get more than 12-15 touches a game. To me he's a Gary Rohan clone; both have pace, both get goals, both are very dangerous attacking players, but both are defensively limited, run themselves into trouble often and are prone to woeful decision making and neither is a big ball winner. A team which has a strong group of contested/inside players might take a punt on him, but I wouldn't be surprised to see him not be picked up.Do you guys think Blease will get picked up?
Wasn't he fairly promising when he got an AFL game

Sydney have started playing Rohan at the defensive end of the ground. Perhaps to improve his accountability, but they've also loved his (dare I say it) Lumumba-like 80m plus plays.Maybe; has pace and can snag a couple of goals so could make an okay HFF type of player.

Blease to Geelong
Rhys Stanley and now Blease? If true, odds on Chris Johnson being first coach out the door must be shortening by the minute.
He'd have to get a coaching gig first.Blease to Geelong
