Great to see Westy stay. Will be a genuine gun. Would be rubbing his hand together now with king possibly going. Senior football for sure next year!

Good news, to me he looks like a young Cox..

With King on the way out he will get a handful of games next year which will do him good. Also getting rid of King helps promote Grima! :thumbsu:

He will definately get a run next year and deserves to as well.

Hopefully big Brad can stay injury free again this year but if he does need a couple of weeks off then it's good to know we still have some cover other then Blakey.

Anyone think you could potentially play Ottens, Blake and West all in the same side with West functioning as a KPP/ruck?

Yes i think this may happen in 2 to 3 years but not straight away due to the fact that West would not warrant a KP nor would Blake. With our spine very stable the way it is and Hawkins likely to be injected into the forwardline i doubt Blake and West will play in the same side next year (unless otto goes down)

Agreed, If we are going to use one as a KPP, we may as well play tommahawk who is much much better.

Can anyone confirm what is going on with King ?? Is he in or out ?? I'd suspect that he should be able to be considered a veteran, shouldn't he ??

Why would he want to move on to a dud club for cash, when he may play another GF??

King is not eligible till 2009 as are Harley and Scarlett.
