You can add a defender or 2 as well. Cole, Nelson, Rotham and Witherden. I would expect one or 2 of those to play WAFL. If mot this week, definitely nthe following week.
All three of Cole, Nelson, and Rotham have played every game this year, they were always getting a week off. Now next week might be a different story.
 
Eh, football is not the be-all and end-all of some people's lives. Guy decided he didn't want to play in a semi-professional league when there was no real carrot at the end of it and moved on to play more casually and pursue other things, who cares.
The big thing about our wafl club us it doesnt have the rampant under the table offerings that the other wafl clubs use.

i was good friends with a former dockers dad who after delisting went to play for xxxxxx - a flat tray truck came round - took his flash but runndown car to the garage - got it tarted up and ready for rego, all new tyres etc - a good 5k worth of work for nix.

that wasnt the only under the table blandishment.
 


Bailey is def a future with potential. However, please stop saying he has passed Vardy. That is not true. Talk to me when he clunks a grab in a GF and converts when the game is in the balance and we are desperate for a goal. Perhaps it is premature to say he has passed Vardy and also premature to call him a waste of talent as he is def on the way up and deserving of a spot in AFL. Vardy is not a dud. for the last time.

My great grandfather was an elite poker player in 1902.

What relevance has this with Vardy?

Dunno, but what has Vardy done since a lifetime ago in 2018?

You're aware this was almost 3 years ago right?
 
Even if it was neck and neck or Vardy had a slight advantage, you’d err on the side of getting games into the youngster wouldn’t you?
I am a fan of Bailey but to suggest he is a waste of talent or to suggest he has passed Vardy are both incorrect statements leaning towards hyperbole. To me at this stage big moments in need of a second ruck I will still go with Vardy.
 
Both have played 5 games this year. I'm not saying that stats tell the whole story, but when Williams leads in almost every single stat it's hard to make an argument for Vardy.

I never said Williams is not a talent but to suggest he has passed Vardy is an over-exaggeration and if we are in a finals game pressure cooker I would still pick Vardy. even based on above stats, I would look at DE, Hitouts, one percenters and turn overs as a win for vardy versus contested position, effective disposal and contested marks and clangers for Bailey. They both bring something different. Good problems to have but to suggest Vardy cant add to the side is a little unfair.

Have you seen Vardy try and move in the last couple of years? He's cooked.
 
Im not hancock but it looks like he’s indicating that Williams has surpassed Vardy in the pecking order for selection. It’s like saying guys like Xon and LEdwards have surpassed Hutchings.
