A quote from Chris Scott today was a bit insightful. If a guy who's 20 can do close to the same job as a guy who's 30 , the guy who's 20 will get the game. How old will Ablett be in 2016? He would have to be like his old man to be playing premium football at 30+ for us to think a young Thurlow or Smedts or who ever it is wouldn't be better value.
I also wonder how draining it must be on his body to be almost carrying a side like GC. The Ablett that we have all seen may be done by 2016 , and if he is why would we replace a kid with him. Unless he has a bail out stipulation in his contract , he will just have to suffer in well paid pain , rest those weary bones in the bed he has made for himself. Perhaps lay back put those aching feet up sip a Banana Daiquiri or two while watching the Cats play as a team to position themselves for another Flag shot.
