Toughest year for delisting in over a Decade?

[ericpascoe]

People. Shouldn't be so surprised about Levi. The coaches (plural) critique of him is basically; can mark; not a great kick; pretty hopeless once the ball hits the deck

I.e. Not enough weapons to succeed on an AFL list

sounds reasonable ep

Not surprised that Levi got the boot. Feel sorry for the kid but ultimately comes across as Cameron Cloke with a poor kick. Can pinch hit in the ruck but too little effect and his marking doesn't make up for the other deficiencies in his game.

Got to love Cachia for his endeavour but doesn't have the smarts or size to make up for his lack of athleticism.

Joe Dare is the harsh one for mine. Doesn't have many (any?) stand out attributes but seems a solid all round player without any glaring weaknesses and a genuine footballer, ala Laidler. One that I thought would be worth persisting with for another season.

it's as simple as that not enough strings in his bow the way people talk about him on this board you'd think he was the next big thing. lets be real the amount of big blokes that make it to the afl with there main attribute going hand in hand with there height and then failing to break into the system. in the end it is business and what needs to be done is done

No surprise at all.

Any other delisting news?

Nothing official on the club site. Mind you, they still have Greg Bentley listed.

Keep up the good work harks, you're running a tight ship

 

[Blue and Silver]

Given we have Luke Mitchell, who can mark, can kick (field kicking meh, goal kicking works from what I've seen) and will persist when the ball hits the deck (pretty good tackle), Levi becomes a little less valuable unfortunately.

Reasonable explanation. Suprised about Cachia though given our dearth of inside mids...

I won't be surprised if the rumours re: Levi are on the money.

He has come a long way but huge question marks remain.

I personally never thought he'd make it. Great hands but kicking is ordinary and once the ball hits the deck he's pretty much a liability - and that can't happen in this day and age.

Wouldn't be against us re-drafting him as a rookie but I certainly won't lose any sleep if he's delisted and nothing more.

That little blonde rag-doll at Richmond copped Cachia's best work.

What was the hold up, Z?

What was the hold up, Z?

Had to clean himself and his monitor after viewing it a couple of times.

.......................or was that just me?

 

[BlueGibbs2011]

What happened to Sin City on this board? Was he delisted as well?

Did he delegate his posting responsibility to Harks? I'm starting to think it was an under the table Malthouse/Buckley deal? Or is this our own version of the Veale deal.

Anyway, hang in there Harks, as the holder of chief poster, your role is to hold TheGeneral at bay post-wise. It just wouldn't do to have TheGeneral aka Chiang Kai Shek gain forum ascendancy.

Was so much easier on my old 16inch CRT monitor

Sin now resides on the main board.

Does that mean he was promoted?

And Twitter

Means he's disgruntled

Get him back here. I've met him, he's a cool dude - a Tassie cool dude. Not always mutually exclusive I've discovered. Someone needs to run down his main street at night screaming "Sin, Sin!" Might get a response.

 

[thylacine60]

Can't do it much longer and the more you post, the more shit you talk or at the very least, repeat yourself.
As with downloading, the more you use the more you feel obligated to give back.

All yours BG2011

I'm sorry, Harks, but if you read the Charter you'll find it's not that simple. You are currently the man - live the dream.

Oh, God. Theroux did a program on that hate freakshow. He had to do another one like he couldn't really believe they were fair dinkum the first time. Gotta love free speech, Zedster.
