    Too risky I'd reckon. PSD a safer bet if it comes to it. Still doubt it will.

Hopefully we're already chatting with Sam Mayes' manager.
      Have you heard Butters wants to come to the Dogs?

        What a badly managed club they've become. The AFL's new basket case.

            Rumours were of senior players being a little too "old school" in their approach to the kids, which put a number of younger guys off-side.

              I heard something similar about both players and Voss.

                What does 'old school' entail?

                  From what I can gather Voss and Brown took the hard taskmaster/disciplinarian approach that was probably successful when they won their flags together.

                      I can imagine what Robert Walls would suggest should happen to the youngsters at Brisbane for being so Gen Y.
