Blame dimmer for having and developing  such a poxxy list, although he not only sees it as depth but can afford crem on top too.
Nobody is cultivated to play to their natural strengths.
The moron wants 22 utility players (showing my age) running around, doing everything.

Bloke has got to an age where we wont get value for money if we trade him out now. Such a shame.

Lost count of the amount of times opposition sides just run through Edwards when coming out of our forward 50 or him & Grigg from a centre clearance....human speed humps.....

Disagree, he'll be 28 by years end.

He's got another 3-5 years in him at least. If blokes like Goddard and Dal Santo can attract interest and good picks then I think Edwards can - however I note that he's not the same calibre of player.

If we decide to trade him he will attract plenty of attention IMO. However I'd be happy to keep him myself and just play him as a small forward...

For how many years having we all been saying, just play Edwards as a small forward....many! Its not going to happen, If anything he will probably end up in the back pocket with the rest of them.

I say trade him, yes he has improved but he is not consistent enough and a club on the verge of a premiership may offer their late first round pick for him, something we should take.

On this we can agree. Massively overrated is old Unforced Edwards aka Fumbles McShank aka Miss Tackle....

Had a shocker tonight, usually has clean hands but fumbled and when he did lay it off to someone it was a hospital handball or kick resulting in a turnover. In addition his awareness of the goals is very poor, should be more dangerous around goal than he is but continually misses what a class player would nail on most occasions. Agree he should be traded and could be a valuable pick up to a top 4 team who with a bigger spread of class players around him would make him a better player. Seems to have gone backwards this season although he has alot of friends there.

Lol are you seriously comparing  or lumping Edwards in to the same class as those two.

That is a great analogy.Very apt. In some ways Edwards has an excuse as a very small bloke but Grigg what is his excuse.
I have laid off Edwards for awhile now just to avoid the inevitable slanging matches but not a lot has really changed  over the years.
