An injured star isn't a true clogger (dud) though IMO. Alastair Lynch was "injured" for 5 years on Brisbane's list. They were glad in the long run they stuck with him but that was only because he had a 10-year contract lol.

I can think of a few others in the clogging category. Fringe players who have been on our list for 8 years it's time to go. 
well name them MT. put up those names ur referring to.
I did. Who was drafted 8 years ago (2000) and are still bouncing b/w AFL and VFL - Hyde and Petts.


Bowden. Howatt is of the same age group.

Tuck, McMahon, King and co. have not been playing VFL but have been pretty average at times.
Bowden is getting on and slowing down. Yep time is nearly up but I wouldn't call him a clogger. A true clogger never gets past being a fringe player. Cam is a rookie list clogger  :-\.

IMO it's pretty easy to work out.

Players who are oldest and still not cutting the mustard should go. Youngest players with the abilty to one day (hopfully) be better than the current mid-aged players, to stay for at least another season.

Really, we must look at where we are as a football club. Sposed to b 3.5 years into the rebuild with new coach and yet still getting flogged by 80 points with Pettifer, Hyde, Bowden in the side and Tiv as emg. We need another year of decent at least two kids and a final cull.

26+
Tivendale, Pettifer, Hyde
Bowden and Johnsons postion va injury/form are questionable.

I don't have a problem with Bents suggestion. We're talking about small to mid-size players so you know what they're going to produce by the time they are in their mid 20s. Joel no longer has the pace he use to so his defensive pressure has dropped away. He'll probably survive another year ahead of the others Bents has mentioned in his 26+ bracket but father time is ticking.
