Yeh, if other players like Ross and Wallace don't eventuate then Barlow could be a later rookie option for Brisbane.I'd have him for a year tbh
Especially if Beams leaves

Werribee bound
Was just thinking the same thing. Cherry on top sort of optionEssendon would be a great fit. They need a big-bodied ball winner. 31 ain't too old. He's never relied on athleticism so don't expect any great drop off and won't need to adapt his game due to age. He's also missed so much footy (and started late) so doesn't have the mileage that a 31 y/o normally would. He won't cost much either. Low risk, high reward (potentially). Even if he gets injured (highly probable) and doesn't play a game, what would they have lost by rolling the dice?No brainer for mine

Who else was chasing him after Freo got rid of him. From memory he didn't have a lot of options.He'd be regretting his decision to go to the Gold Coast massively I'd say. How he wasn't in their 22 for most the season is beyond me though, touch and go whether another club picks him up.

He is scared of going on dodgy camps so he dodged a bullet there.Adelaide
The problem was do you play barlow at inside mid or someone like a Brodie or Ainsworth?
When?Sound logic but a few times dew picked none of them lol
Barlow would be great at the bombers for a year as parish polishes off his mid craft an Barlow would be a upgrade on Myers

Loved Barlow when he was at Freo.He finished 2nd in GC's pre-season 2km time trial whilst coming back from a broken leg FFS.

If that comment re the time trial is correct, without any slight on Barlow, that is poor fitness work by the entire squad.
Hawthorn/West Coast could give him a 1 year contractWould any club throw him a lifeline? Leading possession getter in Round 23 against the Cats midfield. 30 years old.
That more to do with the club than with Barlow. He showed in his last game how silly the selection panel wasI can't see why any club would pick him up.
To not get a game at Gold Coast is scathing.
GWS could be the right team for him ..That more to do with the club than with Barlow. He showed in his last game how silly the selection panel was
I think Michael would fit in at the bombers, lots of fast feet around him and he will in the hard ball for them.
If he was cheap and willing to move then I would offer him a lifeline. GWS has a history of valuing experienceGWS could be the right team for him ..
not slower than sellwood and many othersHe's always had excellent endurance. Genuine leg speed is what he lacked.
