[Northernsoul74]

Yeah nah.

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

Maybe GC but I don’t see any clubs wanting him

All best Zaka on a great career

 

[TylerDurden]

GC I reckon.

 

[Sunny_]

Why GC? Broken down mids that are 30+ aren't what GC needs IMO.

 

[catman2006]

Even the Cats dont want him despite being in the right age bracket.

 

[Billys Back]

I must admit, in his prime he won me a few $$ betting on him to kick the first goal in a quarter against the Pies.
Other than that, didn't realise he was still playing AFL.

Wonder if he managed to get vaccinated....

 

[Pusswah]

How's his body going given he only got 9 games this year?
Interesting player.

Interesting player.

Played every game last year until he hurt his quad and missed the rest of the season (probably more games than weeks due to condensed fixturing).

This year he had a PCL injury to start the year, fought his way back into the side then had a 2 week hamstring and a one week wrist issue. Never refound his form given VFL was cancelled around then, and competition for spots amped up a bit with McGrath, Shiel and Caldwell returning from injury.

Probably didn’t help him that Perkins, Cox and Durham took some of those spots around wing/HFF where he usually plays either. Part of the plan for this year was to blood the kids (7 debutants), so someone had to make way.

 

[Orange Agent]

Worth a punt if he just wants to play for minimum chips.

 

[The 747]

I think he is done, good career.

 

[kreglze]

GC I reckon.

Yeah, no thanks.

 

[Stevi_Tigers]

Would be a good get for Geelong

 

[16bit]

Definitely be some VFL clubs interested.

Doesn’t seem like your usual GWS cheap role player given you guys seem to grab more limited but hard at it types like Reid, Lloyd, DeBoer ect

Career over/

 

[Ambrosia]

Would be a great replacement for David Mackay

[faible]

Has been a reliable player for Essendon, but don't see any club rushing to grab him.

 

[westking]

He is no Mundy but maybe Fremantle as depth?

 

[Chalky White]

Deer Park

 

[essendon]

Geelong surely, or is he too young for the Cats...

 

[Shack18]

Terrible player, can’t believe he has lasted on an AFL list for this long

 

[Chalky White]

Geelong surely, or is he too young for the Cats...

Far too young

 

[Donakebab]

Deer Park

Nah, Marcellin Old Collegians.

 

[Vindicater]

Maybe Shuey convinces the Eagles to give him a lifeline.

Cant see anyone else being interested.
