Currie is about 28 and played 6-7 games. I understand the concept and value of a depth ruckman, i think we can do better than Spencer, he's a big body that provides a contest and that's about it

Value at Casey, so what ? Terlich provides value at Casey. Spencer is the luckiest player in the league to have a contract for next season.

Fine, Joe Rugolo can take Spencers spot. What would we have done without Jakes superb 39 games in 8 years, 0 this year, He is the opposite of a valuable depth player.

Better. I quickly put together an all star team of list cloggers just for you, hope i didn't miss anyone D.Nicholson, Lamb, Gillies Terlich, Gaspar, Norman Toumpas, McKenzie, Bail Maric, Dawes, Tapscott Moorcroft, Newton, Sellar Spencer, Funcke, Gysberts Meesen, Nettlebeck, L.Williams, Lamprill

You are the one making the big deal about number of games played. Playing 10 games does not exclude a player from being honored as a list clogger. Jordie McKenzie finished 3rd in the B&F one season and he was the poster boy for list cloggers, Dean Terlich would also make the AA team of list cloggers.

Dawes played 6 & Lumumba 5 games, do they qualify ? All 3 are cloggers, All Matt Jones provides is pace & turnovers, time to go.

Hope you are wrong, 29 yo list clogger who played 10 games. One of the first i would delist

Tom has not been pathetic this season, he's been nowhere near as bad as some like to make out.

I was surprised he was booted from the leadership group after being vice captain last season

Look at this crap article from Ben Gibson who also writes for the AFL website, he pretty much calls Hogan an ordinary bloke, what a pile of shyt this is Why Hogan's contract offer must be reduced http://thecrowd.foxsports.com.au/t5/Best-On-Ground/Why-Hogan-s-contract-offer-must-be-reduced/m-p/85746#M1171

Game, set, match, Wiseblood

Not sure if this has been posted, it's from a few months ago, Great interview with the big skipper

This is old news, Roosy said it in his press conferance yesterday, go to around 6:30 http://www.melbournefc.com.au/video/2016-05-11/media-conference-paul-roos

Agree with everything you said Stuie, it would be a very difficult position to be in. It's a shame the players didn't man up and tell the truth as i don't think they ever intended to cheat. I was alot more sympathetic to the players before their lies were revealed, it's a shame they took that path.

The value of the trade does not bother me Stuie, it has nothing to do with why i'm angry. I would feel the same if we got him for nothing, I have no time for liars and cheats.

Harsh but true Bizkit, What the players did to cover it up was disgraceful

He conspired with the other players to hide and lie about what they did, no excuse in my book mate. He's lucky he didn't get longer, i have zero respect for Melksham or any of the other lying players after reading the finding

No fan of Jake, up to his neck in the cover up, we don't need people like that at the club, i wish we never recruited him.

I thought the same when i watched it

Definitely, Dawes & Pederson will be gone at the end of the year, we need another quality tall forward.

Timothy Broomhead

I like the straight swap CB, i would be delighted if the Dons accepted Dawes for Melksham, would do that deal in a heartbeat

Read this type of thing every year, you are kidding yourself if you think it's a hasty decision. Fitz is not steak knives, he has zero value trade wise.

If they didnt want to keep him they wouldn't offer him a contract, they would just trade him.

Is he quick SPR ?
