As Big Dub and others have said.. that Turner was in right up to the Bond incident (we lost ROWE, but gained a ROWER..has someone already done that?).. and that Turner was still training with us… maybe the club has a cunning Plan B around Turner and LTI.Unfortunately we have seen the last of Turner .....he was the short-term Crouch replacement ......now not required, and with Hugh Bond being a younger & similar player
Pity, as Turner deserved an opportunity ....and Crouch didn't
He won’t go near us againAs Big Dub and others have said.. that Turner was in right up to the Bond incident (we lost ROWE, but gained a ROWER..has someone already done that?).. and that Turner was still training with us… maybe the club has a cunning Plan B around Turner and LTI.
And a top 4 side gave it to him.And there you have it.
No, we’ve told him noAs Big Dub and others have said.. that Turner was in right up to the Bond incident (we lost ROWE, but gained a ROWER..has someone already done that?).. and that Turner was still training with us… maybe the club has a cunning Plan B around Turner and LTI.
I think that's why he's a bit upset.No, we’ve told him no
Fair enough, I’ll have another coffee and wake up to myself.No, we’ve told him no
Carmichael was the pick of the bunch. I still think we did it to weaken Glenelg.And a top 4 side gave it to him.
But it isn’t a question of Charmichael wanted 18 so that justifies giving Turner 6 months, there were more than 2 players available
Nah, we wouldn’t do that, if we did they should all be sacked.Carmichael was the pick of the bunch. I still think we did it to weaken Glenelg.
Murray and Strachan sign new deals
I'd say we will sign the following during the season:Updated list below. I imagine Butts is the one we would be working on and obviously Doedee. McAdam will get an extension It's just going to come down to hiw many years we are prepared to give him.
Outside that the others are just about all wait and see or already gone. It's a long list.

Crouch & Hately would require minor miracles to happen, if they are to be on our list in 2024. That somewhat reduces the competition Taylor is facing.Taylor a possibility also.
Laird, Keays, Sloane, Berry, Soligo, Schoenberg are all ahead of him. Crouch and Hately too most likely.
Agree. Hately would have to pull a rabbit from somewhere to remain on our list post 2023.Crouch & Hately would require minor miracles to happen, if they are to be on our list in 2024. That somewhat reduces the competition Taylor is facing.
I'd think Hately's position will come down to how well he goes in 2023 and how well Taylor, Nankervis and Cook come on and to a lesser degree Dowling and Bond.Agree. Hately would have to pull a rabbit from somewhere to remain on our list post 2023.
The difference is that Cook's contract doesn't expire in 2023. Hately's does.I'd think Hately's position will come down to how well he goes in 2023 and how well Taylor, Nankervis and Cook come on and to a lesser degree Dowling and Bond.
All's not lost just yet but pretty obviously he will need to lift quite a bit to be certain of another contract with us.
I'm expecting Schoenberg to lift this year but Cook's 2022 season was a real worry for me, at certain times he just didn't look switched on and looked to be playing timid to my eye
Where did I even intimate that Cook's contract was up, my comment was re his totally underwhelming 2022 season and him needing a genuine lift in performance.The difference is that Cook's contract doesn't expire in 2023. Hately's does.
Might be able to switch him on, but "timid" is a real worry. Despite the obvious potential "timid" is a deal breaker for me.Cook's 2022 season was a real worry for me, at certain times he just didn't look switched on and looked to be playing timid to my eye
The context was the odds of Hately being on our team list in 2024.Where did I even intimate that Cook's contract was up, my comment was re his totally underwhelming 2022 season and him needing a genuine lift in performance.
For mine Cook was the biggest disappointment of the 2022 season. It was like there might be something going on away from football so underwhelming his whole approach was.Might be able to switch him on, but "timid" is a real worry. Despite the obvious potential "timid" is a deal breaker for me.
