Cull time

Post: # 619220Post derby Street »

Well who are they ? - lets face it even some of our young players look dead set average - at the very best they will be ordinary. Time to cull and keep turn over until we find some GOOD players.
A wsated trip to see that first quarter dished up.

Maguire, Baker wont retire.
Matty Gardiner might.

king only has a year left in him.
as does baker,maxxie,gardy perhaps.( got a feeling they may delist him at seasons end.)


they wont trade R clarke or xavier for that matter

chivers should be kept on the list, he will be a good player its his first year on the rookie list. ffs we need forward options, as well so keep charlie he can kick and he is young. what if players like roo Kosi get injured

keep howard on the list.

Trade.
Leigh Fisher,Fiora,Rix.(rix is a good player melbourne trade or something)

elavate. chivers,miles,attard. ( if fit van reenan) god knows we need a good young ruckman)

delist.
fergo,allen,

would also Look at baker if he isnt fit then he should retire,
goose wont retire, he is still only 24 i think, if he does his foot/leg again then we should trade him or let him go.

DRAFT ALEX SILVAGNI!!!!!!!!
AND KYLE MATHEWS!!!!

why did we delist wall in the first place he may have been a alright player,


sack our forward coach and get one that can actually coach , not some washed up mate of lyon.

Firstly Goose and Bakes will not retire and R Clarke, Fizz, Fisher and Rix are not tradable.

Miles cannot be put up. It would prove our list management is a debarcle. Chivers and VR are gone. Not sure on Attard but must be in trouble.

Delistings could include Ferg, Rix, Fisher, Both Gardiners depending on contracts, Fizz and maybe Howard.

2 players to be promoted and a max of 5 picks so we need to lose up to seven players.

Neither of them can get fit and the game has passed them both. No point in clinging on to useless players because of form 4 years ago.

They'll try

Chivers can't get a game for Casey and has shown absolutely nothing all year. C Gardiner is just a poor player.
Trade.
Leigh Fisher,Fiora,Rix.
And which clubs will trade anything for Fiora or Rix? Fiora is in his late 20's and hasn't put two good games together all year. Rix is the worst ruckman the game has seen for some time.
elavate. chivers,miles,attard. ( if fit van reenan) god knows we need a good young ruckman)
Just because they play in a position we're weak in it doesn't mean they are any good. Chivers has done nothing, Dempster is our replacement and upgrade on Attard and van Rheenen is still yet to be named in the best at any level of football while on our list.
delist.
fergo,allen
You whinge about delisting Chivers because we need forwards and then say we should delist Allen...you never cease to amaze ralphy.

chivers isnt a forward.
he is a midfielder......

and he has been named in the casey reserves best twice already.
he is also in the seniors today.
allen doesnt have what it takes.
the 3 games he was in this year he didnt kick a goal all he is ,is a reserves player

ull find fiora will go to a melbourne based club. e.g melbourne, etc.
raph clarke will stay a saint next year, he actually has some talent

so does charlie G

Allen not good enough?

Gee, that's a really big early call on a guy who's played 3 games. I can recall people on this forum expecting Barry Brooks to kick on after five years in the system!!!

Allen will stay on the list, and will be a better and more important player than McQualter, Gwilt, Eddy, and Jones, and Dempster, who are all regulars at the moment.

Why would Browny want to play with a group of mental marshmellows?

After years of getting hit lace out by Voss, Lappin, Aker then Black & Power I'm sure he'd be looking forward to the disgraceful delivery that Roo & Kosi get week in week out.

Why?

Yeah exactly, you always have such strong opinons, but you rarely ever back your opinion up with any form of argument.

I can see them leaving the club along with a few others because the aim of the game is to win premierships and at the moemnt the cold hard truth is that we don't look upto it.

There is talk of Kerr being available for trade and I wondered who I'd be willing to trade for him. After last nights performance I am sorry to say but I would trade Dal for Kerr.

I get the impression that Dal plays for Dal and not for the club.

The goal he kicked last night was sensational, the problem is that for a player of his talent, those goals and efforts are starting to become far and few between.

He is going to have to show a bit more passion and comitment over the next 3 weeks to show to me that he is an integral part of this team.

I can't either :shock: :?

He seems to be one of those players who plays a few good games that happen to be televised and sucks alot of people into thinking he is better than he really is, kind of like Peter Everitt really and that is the truth.
