are we expecting anymore delistings?

has Polak and Putt been delisted?

Jackstar said two more to go with surnames beginning with the same letter.

Nine small mids is quite a lot. You'd hope that number to be trimmed over the next year or two and replaced by talls.


what proof?

and i agree, need more talls!

I for one would still like to see Polak stay, give him the pre-season, he did show glimpses and I would like to see the club give him another shot. I mean after all they have given, Polo, Edwards, MacMahon, Patto etc... another go and they were only hit with a football. ::)

Polo, Edwards, Patto are all quite young players.

Polak is old and gets hit by trams.

25 is not young for AFL footballer when you are drafted @ 17 yoa.

Polo - 2004 draft
Edwards - 06
Pattison - 04
Polak - 01

i could think of a similar word for you with a f instead of a m  :shh

Sentiment aside, Polak was no great shakes before the tram!?
I remember listening to triple m the day of the accident and they were lamenting his ability to take a contested grab or any other contested football for that matter...
But i think one more crack in a season that has no aspirations of being great is fair.

Pretty hard to do when you have ribs cracked while filling the hole in front of Fevola early in the game.
He still filled the hole in front of Fevola with sore ribs later in the game when he went back on and managed to take 8 marks for the day in not a lot of game time.

Mmmm, not nice BE perhaps your comments may be better directed at football, I am sure your family would dislike comments like that if it had happened to you. How did Geelong win the Cup with their player group having soooooooo many old players in it?? Most were between 25-28!!

Nice comparison, 3 smalls compared to a kpp? 25 is plenty young for a tall
He was 24 when hit by the tram which is around the age that kpps generally start hitting their straps, he's missed out on some key years

Not sure how anyone could have critisised Polak's ability to take a contested mark

Agreed. No issue whatsoever if Polly is delisted.

SEN just said no official news on Richmond delistings as yet when Schwarz was asked about it.
