I'm not so sure about that, especially if Elliott is fit next year. I don't see where Blair fits in aside from as a depth option, and I think the club is of the same view given their 1 year extrnsion offer to him.
I haven't seen where Blair fits since 2010.


But the club match committee has a hard on for him, top 25% paid players and 1 of 1st picked in Buckley era, I mean seriously.

Pendles>Jones, Treloar >Lewis, Adams>Viney, Sidebottom>Vince, Crisp>Brayshaw, De Goey>Petracca, Wills>Oliver.

Not sure what the fuss is about at Melbourne....
So we were tanking when they pulled our pants down twice this year?

Yep, but suddenly Gubby has arrived, deep list cuts are made, guys like Brown and Blair are offered less than they expected (which caused Brown to walk, but I'm assuming Blair had no suitors.)

And I have a feeling Gubby might end up being on the match selection committee too given he's head of the footy dept. I reckon selection might be a little less frustrating for fans next year.

Can't ignore age and say Sidebottom = Vince when Sidebottom is 25 and Vince is 31, then argue Brayshaw = Crisp because he is younger. Statistically De Goey is superior to Petrecca
On output throughout 2017 Sideass and Vince are/will be equally quality players.

Brayshaw starting to enter his prime should see a lift in numbers to our "run with player".

Anyone using stats to mount a case that Degoey is a better player or prospect then Petracca has obviously not watched the 2 of them play and only reads the stat columns at the end of the game.

This is the whole argument re Degoey.

One side is saying statistically he is having a great year for a 2nd year mid playing HFF and will become a star (others not so sure on star but a good player none the less).

The other side (who can see he will become a good bulldozing type mid) have questions on his ability to become a truly damaging game winner worthy of a top5 selection (which petracca has already shown he is able to do coming off a serious knee reco).

Imo Petra and Goo are poles apart in talent.

4 years??!? That seems awfully excessive...
Actually the more I think on it, the more I'm skeptical.

ASADA already investigated and handed this back to the AFL with no case to answer for at their level. There's been no tribunal to hear Gubby's or the players cases.

I reckon your guy is having a lend BEEG.

Guess we will find out, Ban would be huge if that's the case.

Is there any other teams?
So Brown left because he was feeling like he needed a New Challange and Fan of Richardson
Maybe. He may have also taken one for the Brown clan (if Mitch ends up with us). We couldn't have played both he and Mitch so he takes up an offer on slightly better money which paves the way for Mitch to take his spot at Collingwood (who his wife now plays Netball for).

Maybe Also wasn't Nathan a Carlton Fan before the Draft and Mitch was the Pies Fan?

Would not surprise me one bit if they went down harder on Gubby and Lambert, made up the excuse for Whitfield that he is young and these people should be guiding him in the right direction.

Typical AFL bullshit.

And of course Mitch couldn't just go to St Kilda...outstanding logic.
