Still basking in the glory of this season and shouldnt be thinking of such negative things I suppose.
However, in light of the King axing, I can't help but wonder what happens if at some point Otto or Blakey suffers a long term injury.
Otto has had his fair share - and Blake is such a genetic freak you cannot help but think he's a likely candidate to go down with something.
This would force us to either bring in West, who's still a good year or 2 in the magoos away from being senior ruck material, or look at having to bring someone else (Mooney??) up the ground to change in the ruck.
We all know from seeing it before that the latter scenario badly effects our structure. Cam is much better suited as a permanent forward.
So this is why I would of liked to see King maintained on a one year deal.
