I did this thread the last 2 years but I thought I would do it again this year
https://www.bigfooty.com/forum/thre...n-more-trouble-age-wise-2016-edition.1116717/
For the purpose of this thread I am including anyone on a teams list that is over the age of 29 right now.
So which teams do you think are in the most trouble with how many players are approaching retirement age, and for your own clubs, how good a position do you think your club is in to replace these players?
Fremantle (8)
(Sandilands, Johnson, Mundy, Griffin, Dawson, Pearce, Ballantyne, Spurr)
West Coast (7)
(Mitchell, Petrie, Priddis, Butler, Lecras, Kennedy, Hurn)
Carlton (6)
(Simpson, Armfield, Thomas, Murphy, Silvagni, Rowe)
Essendon (6)
(Kelly, Watson, Goddard, Stanton, Baguley, Hocking)
GWS (6)
(Johnson, Shaw, Mzungu, Mumford, Griffen, Deledio)
Western Bulldogs (6)
(Murphy, Boyd, Morris, Picken, Cloke, Dickson)
Hawthorn (5)
(Burgoyne, Gibson, Hodge, Roughead, Puopolo)
Sydney (5)
(McVeigh, Grundy, Franklin, Tippett, Jack)
Gold Coast (4)
(Ablett, Rischitelli, Rosa, Barlow)
North Melbourne (4)
(Waite, Gibson, Thompson, Swallow)
St Kilda (4)
(Reiwoldt, Montagna, Dempster, Gilbert)
Collingwood (3)
(Wells, Dunn, Goldsack)
Adelaide (3)
(Thompson, Betts, Douglas)
Geelong (3)
(Longergan, Mackie, Taylor)
Melbourne (3)
(Vince, Lewis, Pederson)
Port Adelaide (2)
(Westoff, Monfries)
Brisbane (1)
(Martin)
Richmond (1)
(Maric)
Also when voting don't just take into account the names, but also the ability of each team to replace those names.
I put it in the poll so everyone gets 3 choices.
