Interesting reading here over last couple of weeks. For what it's worth,Patterson must be delisted as must MacDonald, Wild, Watson, Fuller and Orchard.
Shauble is a 50/50; I'd get rid of him too.
Venables? Not much of a player but about the only mongrel we've got and apart from night clubbing in silk underwear I haven't heard of any off-field misdemeanors...have I missed something?
Willo is definitely up for Trade in my opinion; this year he may as well have sat it out. If we're going to get tough it might as well be now BUT it must only be for a top player. Willo is about the only player we have who'd be attractive to a top team as a ready made player anyway...apart from Sav.
There's another who's on slippery frooting I would have thought.
Coach? I posted here about a month back that it was a done deal and I'll stick by that;
Malthouse and Lyon was the very strong word from a good source in August; looks like Gehrig is coming too.
Colbert???? we'd be nuts not to try and get him.

i have no idea where this rubbish about delisting orchard came from. i don't know what you expect of the guy, if you watch him close what he does is get the hardball and dish it to a running player. he's not meant to take huge screamers or have brilliant disposal into the forward line. that's up to tarrant and bucks and willo and tarks. every club needs a player like orchard; north has adam simpson (most underrated player in the league), lions have simon black, carlton have ratten, west coast have braun..orchard and king are ideal in this role. orchard is also a fine tagger and has the pace to match it with any player he's watching.
