Stand by for an outpouring of grief not seen since Lady Di fell off the twig. Personally I thought Port Melbourne would be a comfortable fit - Cuzz and Davo would be a handful both for the opposition and their coach. But I'm thinking Freo with the Whiz on the outer and their record of disasterous recruiting we might pick up one of their young skillful underperformers in a straight swap and do a Bloods revamp. But you are right - gorrrrrnI knew him as a gentle young man, I cannot say for sure the reasons for his decline
We watched him fade before our very eyes, and years before his timeComment

A lot of water has to go under the bridge yet... the Davis-haters should temper their excitement."As everyone knows our style of football is defensive and unattractive, and as such I have completely forgotten how to mark or kick over the years" - Brett Kirk

The glee that seems to be associated with this potential outcome appears rather distasteful, especially coming from some people...Captain Logic is not steering this tugboat.

Ia gree - certainly a year-by-year contract makes more sense.
But "I did wonder if there was any low filth that would take enjoyment from his misfortune"...Captain Logic is not steering this tugboat.

You are obviously referring to Davo's manager Thommo. Now there's a man who has experienced the lot. Punch ups with team mates, relocations, one man media campaigns extolling his virtues, contract terminations and dummy spits. Just the boy for the job. It was obvious during the St Kilda game Davis had no future at the club. The Geelong performance underlined it. His departure frees up much needed cash under the cap. And most importantly there is some justice. ROK can be retained on a fair remuneration. Thats fair. A bloke who gives it his all, works his backside off every match, gets a pay increase while his former fellow half forward flanker who barely raised a sweat gets shown the door. Hopefully Davo can recover his "confidence" with the Dockers or the Dees. As long as it somewhere faaaaarrrr away with another club. Win/ Win I say.Bevo bandwagon driverComment

at least we can be thankful that connolly didnt suggest that bevo get a pay rise!I used to be indecisive, but now I'm not so sure..................

If the kid is looking for a manager more than happy to be Mr 10 per cent. Seriously though the departure of Davis, Benny, Crouchy, Spider and Leo next season will improve the pay day for Bevo, Cracker and Bulldog. And good luck to them they have earnt it.Bevo bandwagon driverComment

Why not? Cutting Davis now give him a chance to get a start at a club thats looking to recruit the greatest forward since John Coleman. If Davis is half as good as you say he is he will walk into any club with a top drawer contract. If I was Thommo I would pull out some of your posts as a reference. Personally I think he will struggle to get a start at AFL level and Port Melbourne will pick him up. But I have been wrong before.Bevo bandwagon driverComment

"It is a year-by-year thing,'' Thompson said. "It was signed at the end of last year. The Swans wanted a season-by-season deal with Nick, that is their and the leadership groups's policy.''Comment
