I think Hardwick was fairly straight up that Towner has confidence issues and needs to work on them. I’m glad he’s still on the list.

Don't forget what number he is.

Couple of fairly evil lads in that handful of players. Couldn't go past Mopsy n Balmey as the best two by a long way.

I do agree he is quite limited and is probably non requisite now with Tommys arrival but im haoppy for him to provide some physical presence in the VFL for the kids we take in Novemnber
At this point he doesnt have any suitors so I'm sure that he would be very happy to stay on our list. I agree that he is value for our VFL team and if he gets a call up for a few strategic games and delivers like he did last year then he can be a very useful weapon.
 
Looks like he's signed on for another year:

Good stuff. Let's hope we can use him for more than just depth next season.
 
we're gonna have to find a new spot for him as there will be no place on the forward line for him. unless he will specifically be used as Caddy's backup?

I heard he got a 9 year 9 million deal.
 
Heard on Triple M news this morning that Towna has been told to keep looking around

R u serious? I've seen bigger crowds at my sons under 8 games then Norths home games.

Does that mean your young bloke automatically get to PRE under father-son?

It's on the AFL site - essentially we'll keep him as last resort, probably on the rookie list. He's been advised that if he can find something better, he should take it.
