    Not surprising, and I think definitely the right calls.

    Good luck to all of them with what they do next.

    Is Suckers too old for a look at punting in the US?

    That's a real shame for the boys. Trengove wasn't given a chance.

    But at least now we can probably assume that at least two of Cavarra, Hayes and Khamis have survived

    Khamis is a rookie. Uncontracted are Cavarra, Hayes and Duryea.

    Trengove had plenty of opportunities. 16 games in each of 2018 & 2019. I think he was under-utilised definitely but obviously wasn’t in the coach’s plans. Disappointing we couldn’t get the best out of him when he switched as he was a decent footballer in his prime.

    Good luck to all

    I just go back to 2019 and we struggled in the first 5 games of the season and the two clear changes we made were bringing JT into the back line and moving Dunkley back into the middle and they were two of (probably a few) reasons that helped kick started our season.

    This year we dropped JT from the leadership group and he played just once and even when Dunks returned from injury he wasn't really in our preferred midfielders.

    I hope JT finds his way into some coaching or development work at a club

    The right decision for us.

    Suckers was an underrated contributor for us. Played some very good games and his gut running a highlight that often went unnoticed at Etihad.

    EW will be devastated.

    I enjoyed watching Suckers and his kicking - when on - was a treat to watch.

    It's true, I really rated Trengove.

    So nearly won three premierships in a row, with two clubs, if not for that pesky Achilles. 18 touches, 4 marks, 5 inside 50's against his old team in the semi final.

    I like Jackson Trengove too. Feel he should have got a few more games to support Tim. All the best to all 3 players.
