Yeah saw that.
Some said he retired prematurely.

[chook23]

no thanks

[shanegrambeau]

I always worried about Nathan Brown retiring, knowing about Carlisle and baby....

Alas, the club did not listen. And none of you lot seemed to think of it much...just saying , farewell, club servant etc.

Had he been up and firing, he may have helped us, maybe, potentially in that last final.

[SinCitySainter]

I can't see the point in that.
If we are really stuck for a KPD send Battle down there or Oscar if he is fit or Wilkie/Roberton can play tall.

no thanks

Id rather Nathan Brown come back...

We missed Carlisle badly and we didn’t have any replacement.

Why not? He is good insurance in case Carlisle gets injured. He won't cost a draft pick (free), and he will be on a minimum wage obviously. It's a good move I reckon. Also gives another year for Clavarino to develop in the EAFL and prove he is AFL standard.

[Wayne42]

Sam Durdin, who was delisted by North, might be a better bet than fried Chips.

[bakes]

I like it boys, I like it a lot.

This list is gaining a lot of depth. Almost batting up to the 40th player on our list now.

Space on the list is golden at the moment.

Clubs are ditching aging fringe players.

[Goose is king]

So do we have absolutely no faith in Clav?

I read somewhere that he doesn't have a contract passed next season. So that would suggest it's touch and go for him. Although I'm not exactly an expert when it comes to contracts and such.

[SAINT-LEE]

Purely for the mentoring value he would offer....he is supposedly a genuine mentor who can teach others. If its true maybe worth it?

[Goose is king]

Wasn’t Logan Austin serviceable?

[vacuous space]

I read somewhere that [Clavarino] doesn't have a contract passed next season.

Clav's out of contract now. He'll be doing well to be on a list at all next year after zero games in three years, especially with list reductions coming.

Ah, there you go. Cheers for clarifying.

[realdeal]

How crazy is it that we think list reductions are coming yet no one knows how much by so all the clubs have to start guessing whilst also making trades/delistings.. amateur stuff by the AFL.

[Impatient Sainter]

What are we going to do at the end of next year? I thought Clavarino might have been one key defender we could develop ourselves? Are we going to trade in every player we ever need - surely not.

I'm torn between Kevin Rudd and Malcolm Turnbull. SaintPelican66 is one of them but I just can't work out which miserable old ghost it is. If you say you are going, please get on the bus!

Now, to the topic. No, sorry James. I admired your decision to retire on 239 AFL games which left your late uncle on 240. Just leave it at that.

[CQ SAINT]

I'm keen on hearing from those that were opposed to the idea of Ryder coming on board. Chips was very good player and has had a career 1000's would envy. It may also facilitate a trade of some costly dead weight and will definitely provide KPD mentoring for what is a very young backline. Hopefully Clav is safe.

I have just under 24 hours left Trev before I head back to BigFooty. So please be nice. I am just a bit mystified as to the whereabouts of saynta. He is one of the reasons I am leaving this place. Only joking, he's ok.

The only issue I have with BigFooty is do I go back as NeXus Nick, CityWest, Joffaboy, NeXus Helen or Bunk_Moreland?

Saynta is still on a bender celebrating your immenent departure. Hoping the bus is running on time.

What about Roberton? He should have been considered.
