Maggot 1977

Strauss is GONE - time to forget about him. I think Grimes would add a bit and would prefer him on HBF rather than M. Jones.

Just wanted to know if the Demon Army was intending to meet up somewhere before the game against West Coast.

Grimes as a Co - Captain will come straight back in if fit to play so there will be one change at least.

Where the emergencies held back ?

2015 Clark - Retired. McKenzie - should look at trade or keep on next year as surplus - should not be picked IMO until he can demonstrate a vast improvement in disposal. IMO a DUD Evans - delist and pay out - IMO never going to take the club forward in any shape or form Fitzpatrick - offer him on the trade table , but may be offer depth up Forward / ruck 2014 Frawley - Gone , Tapscott - Delist, Blease - Delist, Strauss - Delist, Bail - offer 1 year deal Byrnes - retired. Terlich - offer 1 year deal Clisby- - Delist. Riley - like the looks of him - 2 year deal Nicholson - Delist Harmes - Keep on Rookie list King - Keep on Rookie list Georgiou - don't know what to make of him ? Jetta - upgrade 2 year deal.

Agree - If they did play I think the white flags are flying. Seems if they did play they responded poorly to being dropped or might have realised that there AFL is over.

Did Blease & McKenzie not play?

Outs: Bail & Jones In: Grimes & Salem

These2 blokes should play every game from here on - experience is everytrhing

Barry Gawn Spencer Bail M. Jones Terlich Fitzpatrick Riley - will be shocked if any of these wont be on our list next year

Even A half in the Casey League is surely a building block

Saty, I presume you believe Hogan is ready for a run at the Scorps ?

touché

More maligned than Cale Morton ??? I would have Watts over Morton all day every day !!!

Geeze I hope Hogan plays for Casey this week - Will be all over the papers tomorrow if he is named.

Blease, Tappy - well that could be there last AFL games ever - McKenzie is in some real trouble due to his inept disposal. I think he will be kept on the list as back up for Cross next year and then its curtains for him IMO.

Im hoping that Roos and the match committee make a statement this week about the "standards required" to play AFL Out: Bleaase, McKenzie & Tapscott In: Cross, Mitchie & Jones. Barry is my pick out of the box to get a game.

Agree on Bail - he has undoubtedly improved and is the least of our problems.

Keep: Hogan, N.Jones, Salem, Watts , Toumpas ,Dawes ,Viney ,Trengove, Tyson , Dunn ,Cross , Garland , Peterson , Mitchie , Vince , JKH, T.Mac , Riley , Barry , Jetta , Jamar , Howe Gawm , Spencer , Bail , King Retired: Clark , Bynes , Delist: McKenzie , Strauss , Nicholson ,Tapscott Unsure: Clisby, Hunt , Evans , Gorgiou , Harmes , Jones , Terlich , Fitz

sorry about the double up

I'd even think of playing Fitzy in the last couple of games and dangle him around as trade bait ? Freo gambled on Gumbleton ?

1-4 weeks so another we are not committing to anything - just happy to dangle it out there.

Geeze by the looks of things we are placing a lot of hope on both Trengove and Toumpas turning things around in a big way. I believe they are both tradeable back to there home state.

My list of clean out your lockers / don't care if your contracted or not: Blease, Tapscott, Clisby , Strauss , Nicholson , Mckenzie , Evans To go along with the retirements of Byrnes - Retired & Clark Retired Tradeable: Watts Toumpas Trengove Fitzpatrick
