Weeds role is simple: get exposure, learn and get better at the top level. His leash seems pretty long.

He isn't best 22, but Pedo's card is marked so they need to figure out if Weeds can cut it as the ruck forward guy heading into next season. If not we draft or trade for a player who can fill that need.

If we keep winning, he will keep playing.

 

Pedo isn't marked yet for 2018.

 

I think we need him in 2019, as insurance against injuries, or loss of form, or other ?

Not sure how it works but I would like to see Pedersen rookied in 2019... ie he is there to be activated in the case of long term injuries.

If Weid fails at AFL level this season it will be a small such as Bugg or Kennedy who takes his place I think not Pedersen. If team balance allows I wouldn't mind using him as a work horse in the Darwin game simply to avoid draining the likes of Gawn or Hogan.

[DV8 2,271]

Also IF Gawn goes down next year,  as we hopefully prepare for finals, we need a hardened body for ruck duties.

Pedo deserves another year, because of his leave it all on the field attitude, which he's developed with us.

I think Lew and Vince will be at the end.

 

I think all these players are on the shortlist. >

Bernie Vince

Jordan Lewis

Lewis is contracted for 2019

No person in their right mind is going to forego a year’s pay

Pedo's marked if he couldn't get a game after kicking 5 goals he will never get a game.

T.Smith could possibly be kept on the list for the purpose you mentioned.

Weid's role is key forward and second ruck, pretty simple really.

I think he'll play it at Casey, as a playing assistant coach.

[Diamond_Jim 12,597]

Lewis will play until someone permanently forces him out of the team.

No one at VFL level is near that point at present. Maybe by year's end we might be having the debate (hopefully) but not now.

In 2019 he will hopefully be available as great depth because that will mean that someone has taken the spot.

Pedo won't be first ruck. Weid will be first ruck if Gawn goes down.

rubbish. he kicked them against a crappy vfl team. he is admired internally and should an injury occur to one of our tall forwards, he'll be next in line. reliable.

rubbish he kicked them against a good VFL team in Richmond a team we lost against. Should an injury occur you watch I bet you T.Smith will be in front of him.

REALIABLE? Another rubbish statement if he was reliable he would still be in the team. He isn't so that would make him unreliable. He is finished at the end of the year no doubt about it. He won't play another game this year.

AVB will be gone also.

Weid’s roll is a sausage.

He did it last year in the VFL with four goals in the first quarter against Box Hill on the way to six for the game after he was double and triple teamed. Ground conditions at Casey are not as good as they are in the AFL and I have no doubt that the Weid will have a break out goal kicking day some day soon.

Honestly I do think it has been marked. We hasn't been too bad at Casey and could have played ahead of weed based on his Casey performances. Given this isn't the case I think the club has decided he won't be around next season.

Lets see, in the 2nd half of the season...If Pedo gets his go.

 

Last year Goody played the kids early part of the season,,,,,,,,,, before settling into more senior players.
