That means (according to the members of NBB)

Ben Johnson
Shaw
Iles
Egan
Toovey
Rusling
are all trade bait.

Any others on the list?

And could it be true that these guys would all be offered up?
Again, if we are to be big players in this year's draft, players of this calibre would need to be looked at.
Cook and Bryan are not up to senior football either :roll:

I feel for BJ I hope he is still with us next year, has played some great footy for us. It would be hard for him missing a final. Good Luck for 2009 Benny. This bloke is Magpie through and through.

I am focused. I'm really happy that our development year, with kids barely out of nappies, has won us a final and gained us precious experience.
Anything after last week's massive performance can only be a bonus.
So naturally I'm thinking about the draft; I'm looking to next year.

The fact that MM has chosen the kids over BJ at the business end of the season makes you feel his time is up. Don't think he has even been named as an emergency over the last 4-6weeks?

Always been a bit of a Benno fan, he never stops trying. Sad to see players who've given so much langishing in the reserves but unfortunately, I think his days are numbered

Lovely supporters, you all are. I'm sure Ben would appreciate hearing that everyone wants a new player to hate.

Its not everyone mate just a section of people who have nothing better to do than to turn their back on a player.

Even if Ben played only part of the season HE too is one of the reasons we are playing this week, every win counts

Side by Side we stick together are the words I PROUDLY sing and without a guilty conscience.. dont know about everyone else.

He will be back next year it's called depth. Every now and then we regard it as important.
