      Thanks. Makes sense why we offered 4 then. Good to see he chose to stay with us as well. With rumours of Naughton and Marra signing extensions soon it doesn't seem like there is unrest amongst the players.

          Dogs utility Taylor Duryea should get another deal but the Dogs still have to make decisions on Hayden Crozier, Buku Khamis, Roarke Smith and Toby McLean.

          McLean has real talent and is an unrestricted free agent, while Tim O’Brien will likely get another one-year deal.

            The two-year deal for Sweet has been in front of him for some time.

            But not only is Tim English in career-best form, there is a chance Sam Darcy will eventually turn into a ruckman, who can play at either end.

            West Coast is one of the clubs interested in Sweet but consider the turbulence in the ruck market.

              All those players should be moved on imo.

              McLean happy to keep as insurance on a cheap deal. O'Brien should not be getting another deal.

                Tim is a bust I am afraid. His injuries never helped him.

                  TOB another year? Insanity.

                  Duryea is done despite being a good player in the past.

                    Sammy Power has flagged that there won't be a lot of changes to the list given we are only looking to draft in 2 to 4 players and I assume add 2 more via trades.

                    If that holds true then there will be a few 1 year deals offered to the players coming out of contract.

                      Hard to understand our refusal to turn the list over.

                      Do we really think the answer to our problems is to chuck more senior support around Bevo? It's worrying.

                          How many do you want turned over and where do the picks come from? Last year was 8 and the year before 6.

                            I certainly believe that a better performance in the overall coaching and game day effort would have us improve significantly.

                            Changing the playing personnel won't help if we continue to defend poorly and bomb forward.

                              I think it’s a bit of everything. So we now see what we do with the player aspect.

                                Couldn't agree more.
                                O'Brien was a very ordinary pick up.

                                Doc has been good for us, but we have to look at other options now. Hopefully JJ can stay healthy next year, and I think we have to give Cleary a decent run at it and work out if he is a player. I think Cleary might be ok.
