Who are the fringe players playing tomorrow anyhow? Hyde, Moore and Jacko? Not many.
So far we know we have one empty spot on our list with the known retirements and talked about promotions:
Out: Gas, Hall, Knobel and Kingsley all retired.
In: King, Gus, Howat (all promoted off the rookie list).

Just noticed OER's contract list has got Moore contracted till 2008.
Going, going, gawn? ....... Harts and Krak IMO.
On the edge? ......... Paddy, Meyer, Hyde, Schulz (trade)
I still find it odd that Howat is to be promoted.
