    Would we be interested in Robert Shirly?

    Anyone with thoughts here? He has been just delisted from Crows as being Surplus to their list (!!!). Rated by Judd as a key tagger....

      He turns 30 in June next year, and I think he would be a list clogger, preventing the likes of Hannebery, Meredith, Smith and O'Dwyer time in the midfield.

      If we are looking for a midfielder with some AFL experience, going for someone younger like Shane Valenti, 23 in January, would be more likely.

          I hope not. Good stopper but at his age and where our list is currently at, surely we wouldn't consider him.

                  we are considering him, and dont call him Shirly!

                      The guys a great stopper and I wouldn't discount him for next season if that frees up Jack (and MGlynn) to play an attacking role.

                          No thanks

                          Handy player but we should not be considering him.

                          I doubt he'll get a gig next year with the current youth obsession in the AFL

                                  A thought best suited to an alternate universe, where he might actually offer something of value.

                                                  No way Jose - too old

                                                  We have Jack and McGlynn who can do tagging jobs ( Bevan as well)

                                                  Valenti and Tennance are better options
