Could play him as the sub in the last home game IF you have a top 2 spot sealed.

ROK probs only has the 1 year left in him. He would need to go to a team that can push for a flag next year.
Disagree, I think he's of more value to a bottom club full of kids to share his experience and then step into a coaching role.
Melbourne the most likely destination for mine.

That guy
I think the lure of 300 games is more pressing in his mindset, plus adding value in a team first environment.
No, I don't know Ryan BUT I do know someone who does so look forward to meeting him in person in the not too distant future.
Have always admired the way he went about his training\preparation, his on field attirbutes and leadership.
All positives that make setting himself up for a shift to coaching on field and then off > than a 3rd flag IMHO
Nup.
My favourite player but he won't get picked up by any club unfortunately. No club would recruit a player that's going into 2015 aged 34, and not having played an AFL game for 10 months. Pebble's body and mind are no doubt still fresh enough to play at this level, but he doesn't have the pace for a midfield role in a free-flowing game, nor can he play as a defensive forward.
Carlton are on the fence about Judd playing on next year and he's a few years younger than ROK and still has his pace even though his body may be more worn out.

He'd provide something they lack at the Dees too. I watched the Dees/Lions and they couldn't hit a short target by foot or hand, but they really lacked someone who could give a good high no-look bomb into the forwards.
Jokes.
ROK would be great at the Dees. He'd be a good forward option that could run through the middle and give them a bit of heart. With him, Cross, Vince and Jones, they'd actually have a pretty solid, experienced core across all lines. Would help a lot. Maybe he could even get Watts to go in hard... seriously, that guy has so much talent, but just lacks a willingness to work hard and put his body on the line.

I have to say that it doesn't sit well with me how he was treated this year, but I'm sure there were conversations that were had and he has been talked through it all.
It is best for the team him not being in it though.

You've summed it up well I think, I wonder how much of our late season drop off last year was due to having to carry both ROK and Jude as both seemed to struggle by the end of the season?

We look forward to him next year. He will help our young blokes.
I can see that, follow him on twitter and hasn't said a single thing about club or team performance since was dropped.
I don't think he would accept a token game. Probably get a lap of honour at the Richmond game.
