Following our exes...................

Re: Following our ex's...................

Tutt played today, and we got a vast array of panic, fumbles, but missing his annual kick on the full.

No, there was an out on the full. Pretty much on his own, chasing a loose ball towards the boundary, ball shoots off his shin over the line.

Re: Following our ex's...................

Is it possible Jones and Tutt might get paid out for next year?
Bolton has had a look at both now and putting them on the trade table would be an insult to other clubs intelligence.
All they are doing is clogging up the list when the Blues are in need of players on the up.

They'd have to. They're regressing in output, clogging their list and in Jones' case stopping other kids like Foster getting games up forward which is his best position.

Has Foster done anything at all?

I would think he is probably in their delist queue also.

No, he's done bugger all. They recruited him as the top goal scorer in the TAC and because of Jaksch & Jones clogging the VFL forwardline they turned him into a defender, which isn't working for him. I think they will delist him unless they play him forward when Silvagni gets promoted and he shows something as a forward. I'd like to see what he could do as a forward. I'd even entertain offering him to train in the off season as a tall forward to see if he's worth a rookie spot.

I think we chose not to recruit him because he wasn't good enough. This has been proven this year where he has not shown anything in the VFL.

Re: Following our ex's...................

Surely Carlton have already made the offer to both? I'd say no in their position anyway. Being an AFL footballer full time is pretty sweet and is far better than sitting on the couch watching TV all day-I'd be sticking to it like shit sticks to a blanket if I was Tutt or Jones.

BMac mentioned to me he was a rookie list candidate, but Carlton took him in the ND. He's shown very little playing a role he's never played before. I watched him a couple of times in 2014 with Calder and I think he's a natural forward with a few tricks and NB are playing him back presumably because Carlton want to see Jones & Jaksch in the forward line even if theyre doing nothing. It's a shame for him as his career is probably gone, but I've a lingering question about what he could do as a forward, with continuity and confidence and also as he matures into his big frame (a little like his dad).

Might be just teaching him the defence side of things and then he goes back to a forward

With the talls of Jones, Jaksch & Silvagni up front there's not really room up forward for him. I'd guess his papers are stamped at this stage.

I would say jones are stamped before Foster .
Jones has had plenty of chances, Foster is still young and hasn't reached his potential.
Jaksch has had a few too, not sure he would be safe.
Out of the three you would keep Foster, because of age.

Re: Following our ex's...................

Looks like Griff has gone down with a hamstring injury.

How irresponsible of an AFL club to give up a number one pick KPF for a large contract with a player prone to multiple injuries coming from a serious back injury they didn't test properly. Wait for Barrett to get stuck into them.

I'm doing a junior footy thing with Sam Phillipou on Sunday. There's one for the history buffs
