Prediction: we drop Gaff to the WAFL. Kelly gets hit with an illness and Gaff is a late in.

There are other options apart from Dewar and Baker lmao.
Luke Edwards is available.
Trew will be back after his concussion.
Would much prefer Edwards but some have been advocating for Trew to be given more of an opportunity.
Cole (today's sub) and Foley are defenders of course, but they are also yet to come into the side.

Let's be realistic here... in 9 games this season, Luke Edwards has averaged a blistering 10 disposals a game... albeit, one of those games he was the sub, and another one he was subbed out. Gaff needs time in the WAFL, but Zane Trew or Luke Edwards are hardly banging down the door.

Edwards isnt worth persevering woth IMO. Another b grade plodder
 
He's 19......

195cm

May is 193
Taylor is 196

Do you think players have the same frame at 25 as they did at 19?

MFC list May's height as 193cm and his current playing weight as 101kg.

WCE list Bazzo's height as 195cm and his weight as 86kg.

Took me a bit of time to dig it up, but according to the Sun's website back in 2011, May (19yo at the time) was listed as 190cm and 93kg.

So it's fair to say he's got some growth in him... but I don't think he'll ever be quite the beast that May is.

EDIT: No judgement here, just some information.

I have May #1 defender in the AFL over the last few seasons. I'm not saying bazzo will match him but people are saying he doesn't have the frame to be KPD so we should draft a KPD, and also that he will only be 3rd D50 tall. He'll have the size to be KPD not problem. If he doesn't make it, It won't be his size.

70% of any team will be B-graders.

He's also been playing half-forward most of the time, for some bizarre reason.

His best game against Richmond, a couple of years ago, came when he actually played mid.
 
I agreenot every player can be A grade. But how long has edwards been on the list 3 years? And hasnt even cemented a spot.

May be worth delisting and Putting on the rookie list at best.
Was out for the season last year, so only his 2nd full season.
I'd keep him for another year. Can't cut everyone this year.
I'd delist XON completely this year tho.

Gaff is no better and he certainly isn’t going to get better with the experience. Makes more sense to give the games to the younger ones so you can assess if they are AFL quality or not. Having said that I think Gaff competed better this last couple of weeks than he has for a long while. He just isn’t effective or productive

Not so much Gaff alone but (this is only a highly speculative thought) could it be that he/some know they are being moved on an their motivation is only now at 95% ??

If gaff gets dropped.
 
Never really Edwards that highly tbh. He has the smarts but doesn’t have the pace of skills to be of use outside and inside he isn’t really contested ball winning type. Unluckily for him he was drafted a decade too late
