Probably emphasises how much of a phony coach Lyon is, their window wasn't just open, it had been removed from the wall.

Fair collection of importance there though


Really? I reckon almost all of them wouldn't get a game at most other clubs.

Why is Pearce still on the list?

Would any of them get a game in any of the top 12 clubs? No, is my answer.

Mundy would.

The rest I agree wouldn't.

A couple of your better recruits need to get on the park JOM and O’Rourke


Burgoyne yes, how could i forget him, the others arent 30 yet
Poppy 29, bit part, role player anyway
Mcevoy 28
Henderson 29 questionable if hes in best 22
Birchall 29
Frawley 29
As i said i reckon we probably have the most 26-29yr olds in the comp, hard to tell just going by gut without a graph. Add Gunston, Bruest, Stratton, Rioli, Smith, Shiels, Duryea, Whitecross, Ceglar, Shoenmakers, thats 17 players in that age group, but far from finished. Luckily theyre not all best 22 players

I trhink O'Rourke is finished, only survived because there was no point drafting another kid for 2 years who is just as bad, will be delisted next year.
Omeara the key to top 4-6, if he is a bust again we dont have the midfield quality to match it with the big boys.


A lot of those blokes are close to being past it. Thought McEvoy and Poppy were way older than 28 TBH, I did that list off the top of my head TBH

Most surprising thing about it all is having a decent footy discussion with Daisy and not wanting to rip his face off ;)

Mundy probably.

Sandilands if fit, would get a game at some clubs.

The caveat being fit... which he rarely is these days.

Yeah, I suppose, a brief look and you see Sandi and Mundy being important in the guts, I didn't watch Freo too often last season to see how Johnson and Spurr are tracking nowadays, the other two are past it and unwanted anywhere else.

I'd take any of them over Thomas LOL.

They are important to the make up of Freo.

I agree, completely useless.

Do they include rookies?

I thought Geelong would have been clearly number 1 with Ablett back


Yeah it's not like we haven't lost anyone to retirement over the past few years. ;)
