It's not just about how many, it's how you use them too. I don't think the alternatives are actually worse, I mean at least they can kick 40m so they already have that over Gaff.

That segment with JK is the worst thing on Duffs show, I bloody love JK but if he’s always gonna back his mates and give the listeners nothing he may as well be dropped from the show, Duff asks him some tough questions, but he always just plays them with straight bat like he’s still in club land.
A mitigating factor for Xavier is that he's been playing either as a forward or in a lockdown tagging role.
No, I don't think he'd be doing any better than Gaff in his role either, but worth mentioning.
I'd back an underdone Cole to do a better job on the wing than Gaff has been. Whilst his fitness will clearly nowhere near peak, we know Cole has a decent tank compared to the other Gaff alternatives, and we've seen him do okay when running up and down the ground in the past.

XON is mainly playing in the dreaded half forward position where careers go to die. His career was already on life support.

He doesn’t move like it though.
Don’t wanna know about your sex life mate
They are possibly hiding players like Gaff (cooked) and XON (just bad) by putting them in spots where they will be away from the play.
I actually thought that Gaff was ok vs St Kilda, but there were massive problems whenever he was lined up on players like Brad Hill on the wing, he can't keep up.

Gave very veiled responses but judging by Rob Wiley’s interview with Mark Duffield this morning I think there are going to be a few disappointed punters on here that expect Gaff to be lining up for the Beagles this weekend.
Sounds like the club are “backing in their man” to overcome a form slump that has now extended for 17 rounds by continuing to play him at AFL level.

More like 17 months.
People forget how bad cole is.
Disappointed but not at all suprised. Haven't for one second thought they'd actually drop him
Still time to be suprised.....
Yet he had more touches in 19% TOG than Gaff did in a full game

Counterpoint: people forget how good Cole was playing before he missed the entire 2022 season.
Hes a good lockdown defender, but like duggan his disposal is a toss of the coin.
Miguel Sanchez

Nope. He’s actually a very reliable kick. He’s regularly got one of the highest disposal efficiencies on the team.
Disagree. Bad decision maker
