Yeah back out there.Is Butch ok?
White is a strange one, his stats have always been garbage but he is also clearly best 18. Obviously something funny is going on for him to be out of the side at the moment, but hopefully its just us "resting" him while giving younger players a go...?
I'm sure if we don't want him he would be tradeable regardless.
Well he's a HBF. His competition are integral players in Broadbent and Pittard who wont and shouldnt be dropped. Then DBJ and Krak take the other 2 small defender spots. O'Shea is playing as the utility that can play tall and small as per Stewart, Bonner cant play tall yet. That position is less important in terms of tall given that Lobbe releases Trengove to go back, however it will still be required at times.Why would it be dbj , who has cemented himself or krak?
Oshea would be the obvious out for bonner but could as easily put broadbent out as I fully expect bonner to make broadbents spot his, but doubt the coaches have them balls yet.

Bonner deserves to play AFL footy but unfortunately hes a victim of our 'interesting' drafting to pick a player in an area we are well stocked. I think the club must invest in Bonner as a wingman and mid in the preseason this year.
There have been a lot of baffling list management decisions recently... Lobbe, Stewart, Colquhoun, Butcher, Westhoff, Neade, O'Shea, even White and Toumpas are players whose contract status either doesn't match their output, or how they are treated by the coaching staff.Yeah, our record with him in the team is very good and his speed is obviously an asset.
I'm just miffed that we've handed him another year by default, when all evidence (age, injury, form) points to his halcyon days of 2014 being long gone.
Which as it turns out, is kind of a theme.
Oh one more player is Nathan Krakouer who we seem to consider best 18, but still * him over by keeping him on the rookie list?Yeah, our record with him in the team is very good and his speed is obviously an asset.

yesIs it too little too late though?
I remember seeing a video package in 2014 when we were 10-1 and "top of the world" was playing while White kicked a goal vs Geelong.Whitey is forever injured. Only memory I have of him is the goal in the first showdown at AO where he kicked one on the run and tapped his Guernsey. Great memory but not much since!
So Matt White injured. We are playing one down then.
