  • Another resigning I am happy to hear about
  • DG, waaay past it, must be a contract for being a good bloke, Brad gives a few of those out, especially to ageing players.

    • Thought he did a decent job for us this year? Will be a fair way down the pecking order and shouldn't play many more than 6-8 games for us. I guess we have to keep such players if we aren't actively signing new players, otherwise we'd just be crippling our depth for no reason. 

    • Decent back up player
    • Yep decent backup. With the squad going to 30 players, he's the sort of guy I imagine would be in that extra 5.
    • Yes, desperate when we have to pick him in FG.

  • Makes sense
  • Not sure if I agree with Gower's re-signing, with all these re-signings I can't see were there is room for new players, you would think with Ray Stone, Jack Morris and possibly M. Niukore added to the squad and the signings of Robinson and Evans that our squad of 30 is just about full.

    I will be surprised if Fritchard is offered another contract or R. O'Brien for that matter.
    • I hope we dont resign Roy O Brien he not even good enough for wenty i think
    • 100% agree man, I would of much rather seen these 3 young blokes get a go

"Pezet and Papa play 2 different styles. Pezet is basically there as a second organising half to take some of the load off Moses. He's far and away a better kicker, organiser and defender. I love Joash but he's not a first string half right now."
