Could we manage without Gilbert?

I think he was one of our best in EACH of the GFs - very foolish to even consider getting rid of him.

I can't believe the question is even being debated. the guy is what? 23 yrs old? Been close to AA for the past 2 years. He is strong in the air, is quick and is courageous. He also has fantastic evasive skills. His kicking is sus, but for mine that's about it.

Would we miss him? Bloody oath we would. You let blokes like that walk out your door, you want some serious compensation in return I reckon.

I love Riewoldt, and I fail to believe that he wants him gone. Roo wants a flag as much as anyone, probably more. Only a fool would push him out of the club. I don't believe that Roo is a fool.

No doubt Gilbo is important when he is on song, but his disposal by foot is not great, and he would need to improve on both sides of his body if he was playing as a forward.

He's only 25.

He should improve.

He is definately a required player.

If the club thought otherwise he'd already be gone.

Sure he's for sale - we'll take next years pick 1, 10 & 23. Should coverit.

Done and dusted.

By mutual agreement.

Forget about the "We're all professionals" talk by Roo.

Roo wants him gone and he will be.

Big call but you may be right
