Re: Delisting and Retirements - 2021
I liked Campbell but he was an almost player.
Would've been decent if he was a better mark, so often two grabbed it when he got his hands to it. If he had managed to fix that he would've been much more effective.
I should leave it alone but you're not right

I'd rather get Will Minson back.

I just miss Minson flailing his arms like a turtle on its back every time he ended up on top of someone.

Seems he left North after last season. He is doing some sort of management consultancy now. His LinkedIn looks like he can't decide what he wants to do.

Some people seem to rate Sweet very highly.
The point is pretty moot though - I don't think we're looking to strengthen our ruck division

Apparently Sam Power is one of them.
Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

There’s certainly been questionable list mgt decisions made over the last 3-4 years.

Campbell could almost be on another list if sainters pick him up.

He was a very good VFL ruck for us, that's not a backhanded compliment either. He had his issues at AFL level but for Footscray he was brilliant.
