Can we put Chris Newman on the LTI list?

That calf strain looked easily like a 15 week possibly 19 week injury incase we make finals .

With him and King on the list we should pull the trigger on Miles and Banfield straight away.
Thanks Doctor Nick.

On a positive note though, extra time off will allow for some cracking "Hello Newman" lol's on the RFC website....
 
Love the respect you show to the players that have stuck with us forever.

In all honesty , out of respect for Chris last year I would of tapped him on the shoulder and given him Andrew Macqualters job.

Then I would of quietly explained to him that if we are being honest and he deserves honesty , we have just free'd up enough money to land Nick Dalsanto .

That's how I would of treated a legend like Chris . But I'll make this clear I've always respected Chris Newman the person but I've never ever thought his football abilities where more than an honest toiler and great team man.

So because you would have given him a 'nice' exit last year, you think we should give him a nasty one this year to make up for not doing so.

I think he'll be ok . He hasn't done much this year which was always going to be the case. Lucky he was playing for the Australian Cricket Team.

Some blokes play one season too many . He isn't the first and he won't be the last. He'll be a huge success in retirement.

Yes. Chris was just a good ordinary footballer and only survived bc of our poor teams but now that we've started to build a good young list his time has well gone by
I'm always reminded of Richie Vandenburg every time I see Chris but I don't really know why
Maybe bc when Richie left The hawks won two flags
Could history repeat for us?

i'd rather upgrade Darrou than Banfield

I would to but with Rance got he's not needed now . We need to find out whether or not Banfield is a one or two year option. If they put Maric on the LTI at the start of the season Darrou should of been first bloke promoted. They can give him a run after round 11 though.

Banfield can play , let's see if he has improved after a ore season with the same awesome development team that has turned Shaun Hampson into a complete footballers.

He could always become Jimmy Giggle off ABC2 for Kids stunt man if the club doesn't let him become caretaker of the museum

What's happening Rusty? I used to enjoy your posts. Now you are just constantly potting the club, our coach and a lot of our players. It's gotten old really quick. You're starting to come across as a troll.

FFS you've got a numpty like Tiger Imposter liking every one of your posts. That should tell you something.

Get yourself back on track mate. This board needs your humour.
 
Thread is irrelevant anyway

Injury has to be 8+ to go on the LTIL

His injury has been assessed as 4-6 by real doctors, 15-19 by an unqualified person on the Internet who has never met the patient, let alone seen the injury or any scans related to it

I don't think the afl will let us over rule the docs assessment for capt anonymous

Noone outside the club knows how Andrew McQualter is going, nor if Chris wants to coach.
You've been bagging our recycled players (Hampson mainly) and we're not close to a flag, but you wanted us to get an inconsistent 30 year old outside mid...?
An "honest toiler and great team man" is often enough (refer Nick Maxwell and his Premiership cup)...
I think Chris Newman deserves more than, "right he's gone finally, who can come in..."
