Time is up for some players

[Maggot 1977 263]

wish they would start releasing the delisted names.

Will be shocked if Tapscott is redrafted as a rookie . IMO the benefit of a mature rookie is that he is fit and playing consistent football in the 2nds just waiting for a long term injury. Tappy is always injured or coming back from an injury and I would be shocked if he has ever strung 8 - 10 weeks in a row of training and playing.

I know Sam Blease was told when he came back into the side a few weeks ago that it was his last chance and he needs to show something, I can only assume he will be delisted or traded because of his inability to lock down a spot in the leagues weakest side.

Bleases mentality isn't too different to a track sprinter.
He has no idea how to play as a team and he has a big ego.

The problem with Sam's ego, is that he isn't as quick as he thinks he is.

Because of this, alot of his attempts at scoring and involvement in play result in him trying to be a one man team.

Too often he tries to burn off his opponent, and either gets run down or allows the opponent to effect his disposal to the extent that it becomes a turn over or a missed shot on goal.

Too often sam ignores open option and takes the kick himself from 50, where he had pass options at 20 and 30 meters out.

I could see that he once had potential, but its too late.

Plus, kent has all of sams skills minus a tad bit of sams pace, but kent has the team factor.

Nicholson and clisby told their services no longer needed.

I don't see Watts as an effective full forward in this team. He is not a contested marking beast and our disposal upfield is not good enough to utilise his talents.

I see Watts as a Jack Gunston type of player who will be a great converter when he can find space in the forward line and guys up the ground can actually hit him with a pass. Hogan and Watts could be a dangerous combination but our midfield will need to improve to allow this.

I'm not sure how Roos sees Watts but I suspect his trajectory would be similar to Gunston's in a decent side. He only needs a couple of shots at goal a week to be really dangerous. But putting him deep forward would be no value to either him or the side right now.

Or perhaps Radar Detector is actually THE G Lyon?

Seems an age ago this thread - but we discuss it every year.

Hopefully, Watts settles it positively in 2015.

Well he's off to the best possible start!
