I don't share your view on the veterans at all, and especially with your selections of where they would fit.Didak could play for the Western Bulldogs in that team badly lacking guys who can use it by foot.
Krakouer could play for West Coast with that team needing a crumber to play alongside their key forwards.
And Jolly would be the no.1 ruckman for Sydney now with Mumford gone.
You just notice so often clubs failing to recognise opportunities to take veterans who can help make them better in the immediate.
Just as I'd say Collingwood missed the opportunity with Chapman/Podsiadly/J.Hunt all available and perfect fits for our list.
Jolly, if Collingwood preferred to play Grundy in a final....why would Sydney prefer Jolly to Pyke??
Didak, the dogs would convince Gia to go rd again if they wanted a skilled senior bloke up forward he did just win their goal kicking....let younger guys like Stringer, Tutt, Dickson or older guys like Cooney or Higgins play instead.
Krak, WCE don't need another slow player.
And that is before you take ino account salary, would any of those guys be prepared to play for minimum payments??
Dids in particular hopefully just hangs em up, nothing to gain by going around for 1 year with another club.
