Nah, it's definitely not just me, you only need to look to page 269 & 270 before this story broke to see that there was only 1 game this year that people cared enough about to give him props for.
Nah, if I wanted to say he's been *smile* lately, then that's what I would have said. Regardless, not being as influential is a fair call, he's definitely not playing at the high standard he's for himself in previous years & we know he can play at... But if Dimma (and everyone else) want to treat him like he's still putting out those performances every week, that definitely won't hurt the trade value.I think its more that he hasn't been as influential as he has been in prior years, doesn't mean he's only played 1 good game, but has been a bit down, but that doesn't mean he's been crap in the other 5, which is what 1 good game suggests.
Don't think it is unpopular at all, totally agreeUnpopular opinion but we have gotten the best out of him. It wouldn't be a bad thing to get bank if he did want to go.
Yze will go full rebuild if Baker, Dusty, Shai or Dan leaves.
I've given him votes in five of six games. Reckon he's comfortably top 5-6 of the B&F thus far.Nah, it's definitely not just me, you only need to look to page 269 & 270 before this story broke to see that there was only 1 game this year that people cared enough about to give him props for.
Just did a quick count in the PRE player or the year thread. Number of posters who have given Daniel a vote in each round (i.e. had him in our top 5 on the day):I've given him votes in five of six games. Reckon he's comfortably top 5-6 of the B&F thus far.
Let's see.Dan is going nowhere while Maurice Jnr is at the club
Hardwick will want Jr next too.Dan is going nowhere while Maurice Jnr is at the club
If we tell SOS that Thomson is the brother of ex CARLTON player Paddy I’m sure Steve will be sold.Hardwick will want Jr next too.
We are going to end up with a lot of high draft picks-
2 for DRioli
2 for Baker
3 for Bolton
0 for Dow
yes absolutely and we've seen the likes of North & Hawks suffer from to big a list turnover , those sorts leaving are a risk, but in Seth Campbell, Kaleb Smith , Steely Green ,Kane McAuliffe there might be future leaders (gut feel , and remember how young Trent was when he was given captaincy )It's a worry. It's one thing for ageing 300-game premiership heroes to shuffle off into the sunset, but when on-field leaders still in their 20s and who would be part of the leadership core over the next five+ years want to check out...
On paper we'd do well out of it but those 'heart and soul' players are more important than an exercise on paper, and part of something special that the club has built over the past decade.
