Well firstly I'd obviously trade a few, but it was more a demonstration -in response to a question from BT about a joke by Chucky- of how many duds & expendable players we still have on our list IMO, than a realistic scenario -  for a start, half the players I axed are still contracted for next year at least ...hell, two of them just signed extensions in the last fortnight..hence why I added the "contracts notwithstanding" asterisk...

Let's get a whole lot of players who can't get a game at the club they are currently playing for. It hasn't worked ever before but what does history prove.

Wouldn't go as far as Chucky....I'd only pee off 24 players* and keep the following:

Cotchin, Deledio, Martin, Riewoldt, Rance
Vlastuin, C.Ellis, Menadue, Lennon, McIntosh
Rioli, Chol, C.Moore, Short, Markov
Miles, Grimes, Lloyd, Yarran, Castagna

EDIT: Maybe keep Lambert for depth and give Elton one more year to prove himself.....
I'd agree with all that and there's only one other player I'd give a life line to and thats Drummond, purely because he is a quick type who
probably needs another preseason to get over that knee injury before making a final decision on.
With Prestia and hopefully Yarran playing next year Hardwick has absolutely no reason to play his crap SLOW football game plan.

Not sold on Drummond......forgot Butler - would definitely keep him...also forgot McBean....still rate him and think he deserves at least another dozen or so games to show his wares, which still only gives him about an eighth of the amount of chances Vickery's been afforded and a quarter of Griffiths' opportunities....

I guess we needed to keep a couple of talls. That is the worst hole in a very leaky boat called the RFC.... :banghead

If he stays injury free (yes I know most think he cant) he could just prove he is worth the contract. My opinion is well known in the Griff thread.  Oh btw you should probably merge this mods  :)

Not bad when "TheGirlGriff" takes a speccy and hurt his pinky toenail on the way down then 10 weeks on the sidelines with a sore pinky toenail and cleared for another crack in the second half of the season when mummy says it's ok. :rollin
