Interesting article on afl.com.au about players over 30 at each club.
Currently we have 6, was 7 at the start of the year (Grima)
Harvey, Petrie, Waite, Firrito, Dal santo, Wells. Journo Nick Bowen is of the opinion that all will stay on next year.
If that is the case i think we will definitely lose half of them at the end of 2016 (Petrie, Firrito, Wells). Big holes to fill
It will leave a hole, but all are playing good footy (apart from Wellsy obviously) and should remain.
We shouldn't be dumping players just because it's not sexy enough for numptys like Hutchison who bat off over "kids". They will force their way in in due course.
Some of those blokes need to be delisted...namely Daw and Harper.Still a lot of work to be done by List Management before the end of the season.
in this order
Goldstein (don't let him even think about FA)
Wright (is he seriously not contracted beyond 2015?)
Boomer
Ziebell (extension required this year)
Brown (extension required this year)
Daw
Thomas (extension required this year)
Harper
McKenzie
Petrie (done enough in the last 5 weeks, would still prefer to see him in defence)
1 year extension.didn't Jacobs get two years?

Well you can languish in underperforming teams, I prefer not to.an argument could be put forward for that, but I don't agree so my statement stands.
I'm sure it was a 1 year option that was executed by how many games he played this year.wow thought he had done enough this year for the club to show greater faith then 1 year, oh well my bad.

does that make us a feeder club like the bulldogs in the 70s and 80s, develop players, put up with all the s**t games and when he comes good trade them out for what? an early draft pick? to start the circle of madness over again?Agree with all that, except Wright. I'd shop him round if he finishes the season off well.

Sam Wright is the only defender who can both shut down an opponent and be effective by foot.Agree with all that, except Wright. I'd shop him round if he finishes the season off well.
