Why is this guy still on the list

Will never make it List clogger El supremo.

[Chook 15,013]

Should probably get out before his brain melts. He has some good qualities, but he's not good enough to make the potential risk to his health worth the trouble. If I were him, this would be my last year in the game.

[beelzebub 23,376]

Came onto the scene in a 'fresh' way. Had good feet, poise and an appetite but it really hasnt amounted to . Can only see cameo performances in 14 before being let go. Shame...has a bit of flair.

Not everyone makes it,

Rohan Bail is a decent young man.

If I was his GP I'd tell him to quit now.

Another blow to the head and we have the Danial Bell problem all over again.

[Bingo 305]

I like him as a player...good endurance, puts his body on the line etc.

If he'd had more continuity of games I think he'd show what talent he has.

Although as others have said, would another head injury worth it?

[Deeoldfart 8,033]

Rohan works hard to get the ball then promptly butchers it far too often. I really like his courage, pace and work-rate, but his is iffy disposal, lack of composure and questionable decision making indicate to me that he will be spending a lot of time at Casey in 2014. Like quite a few others on our list, the step between VFL and AFL is a step too far for him.

[beelzebub 23,376]

has a year to run . I think theyll just leave it there.

[Young Dee 1,303]

I rate him higher than Nicho but if he has another concussion he is done. There are more important things than football (I think?).

[Undeeterred 3,124]

I'd be saving up as much of this year's pay as I could if I was Bail, because he won't be back in 2015.

A real shame, because he was shaping up to be really handy before the concussions. Life is too short to wreck your brain.

[At Least I Saw a Flag 5,246]

Not much of a player but probably a good bloke. Thanks for everything Rohan. Don't slam the door on the way out.

That's not much of a recommendation.

[Watts going on 14]

Expect Roos to make a judgement call over 2014.

Provides a few positional options.

[Biffen 12,943]

Had a good year under Bailey once.

Roos might be able to turn some of underachievers into players.

[monoccular 17,429]

He definitely should retire while he is still capable of making such a rational decision.

It could have been nice to see what a cerebrally intact Bail could achieve under Roos, but it is not to be, surely.

[Forest Demon 4,681]

I know we like to talk about things we have no idea about here on Demonland, but I think Rohan Bail's state of health takes the cake. Just let the club and Rohan sort this one out.

What is the real significance of player review,Austin Wonda.... was reviewed despite getting the chop. I suppose some of us are bored XXXXX due to no footy.

[old dee 23,791]

As a pick 64 he has probably done better than most 64's

Seems a nice guy from a very good family.

However I see little future in him.

He knows how to get the ball but he is a terrible kick.

Not good enough at AFL level.

IMO only a minor miracle will see him on the list for 2015

For one thing, it helps people get the players' names right--which is something you're having a bit of trouble with from the looks of it.
