I know...we're only just over a 1/3 of the way through the season and we're 4 and 4. Poised to go who knows where. Since Roos and his team of merry men have arrived the list has been turned over in a wholesale fashion. Come seasons end the Circus comes to town. There's the main attraction in the big Draft tent and theres the thrill of the spill and lure of the prize in SideShow -trade Alley and who knows what one may find in the Rookie Showbags. Be a fan fan of the carnival or not, the show WILL go on and we will be there. Like may an event there's an entry fee and to this one its space'. No not the last frontier but available spots on the clubs playing list. There has to be some. The local Sheriff insists you play at least to the minimal extent. Over the last few seasons our appetite for change has been big but just like someone who's sat down to a hearty meal the impetus to continue feasting may have abated but none the less whether its that one more little mint or an Aperitif something must be ordered. What are we going to peruse on the menu and who's departure will be required to make a little room. Some consensus among D-Landers goes to the following. It may or may not be actually what the FD think we need, it's just what we do. My interpretation is that we are short a tall forward.Someone to slot in with Hogan ( bless his little heart after he signs ) and Watts. Some suggestions are that this style of player is already on our list just needs a bit more developing. Do we rest on laurels ? Our once 'raved about' defense" has now been shown to be wanting if the Diamond is to sparkle and shine. My thinking is we need a ready to go Full Back to release T Mac to less arduous responsibilities. Another key back to add depth and insurance would be a smart move for mine. Some on our list dont quite seem to be there ( if ever ) Our ruck stocks could be badly exposed if that 'I" word surfaces....so shhhhh !! Some observers would suggest we have some projects already on board. Which ever way you come to this some places have to be opened up. Some hard calls ( and some not ) will need to be made. So Roll up , Roll up and play the game. You sir....what will it be ? Madam, what's you flavour of choice ?? How many ....and who is most likely to get that tap on the shoulder ?
