Serious question, would he get a game at any other club?

Look, I think he would, as a small defender. He's not a midfielder and his disposal & decision making are a bit questionable at times, but he always gives effort.

Just think we had a great opportunity to be brave with the decision and appoint someone like Durham or Caldwell. I personally would have loved to have seen Durham get the gig.

Has it got anything to do with Welsh over ruling the football department on the Merret trade? I cant imagine that would of been a popular decision with such an experienced operator.

I don’t think so. He has been stepping back gradually and the club knew it was coming and it was a very amicable parting.
Seems he genuinely wants/needs to get back to Adelaide for family reasons
