Factor in we have Cerra, Walsh, JSOS, Doc, Pitto and Saad who have in the last couple missed a fair chunk of games with their various issues and then Martin, Cunners, Marchbank, S.Durdin, McGov who just keep on missing with random mixed things. Top that off that Weiters has also suffered some soft tissue injuries the last 2 years as well and we have Cripps, Kennedy and Hewett who all take significant bashings and have some issues as well but play through mostly, we just can't afford to retain risk the perennially injured anymore (and players such as Akuei and Mirkov that won't make the senior grade).
Martin is kinda worth the risk for an extension as he'll have immediate impact on the handful he plays, but Cunners, Marchbank, Durdin, Akuei and Mirkov all need to be let loose. Unless Cunners and Marchbank happy to extend for a year on minimum wage and go year by year from then on then perhaps consider it.
Can easily see 6-8 changes on our list heading into 25.
