      No to Watson. I'm still getting over tye offloading Robbert Klomp on us back in thr '80s. I'm wary of any cast off Carlton plyers.
      They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

        I think we've corrected this and paid them back with interest by giving them Jones and Tutt with Athorn included as an initial downpayment.

        At least they gave us Maylin.

            I liked Hogg and was not happy when he left.

            The other one was Collins who was up him self.

                Agree with this. Matty Hogg's family are Dogs fans and Hogg was a good clubman who went on to a terrific career at Carlton. Parkin loves him. He was a loss.

                A better 90s trade by us to Carlton was Jimmy Plunkett.

                  Now that might change if we were to land someone like the former cat Mitch Brown but there is a fair chance we won't land any experienced KP player in the National draft.
                  I thought we all conferred that Roughead would not survive being number 1 Ruck.

                    The club seems to be saying he will train this year as a ruckman. My preference is that he stays as a key defender who does some work in the ruck but if he is being moved we don't have a lot of depth there

                      I think it was out of Hogg or Maloney who left, both back pocket players. We kept Maloney.

                        My preference also. You have to be a certain breed to be a ruckman. In other words, a masochistic freak with ability to have your body put through a meat grinder.

                            Goes to ground too often as well and while he kicks the ball well long on the left there's not many more that miss targets 20-30 metres away.

                            I've met him a couple of times he's such a nice unassuming guy but I don't want him playing football with us.
                            But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.
