Xavie Ellis lost defender status after only playing 3 games in the AFL, but he did also play VFL games, which does impact what position they get.

Any chance of ZOB saving my *rse this week?

[Ringo]

Sorry Big Mac can not see it. Robbo has the nod imo before him.

[strikes91]

he did get 42 touches and a goal in the reserves though apparently but even then I can't see him coming in. If Merrett was to be out I expect McGrath to play his last Gabba match

[Ringo]

Fair call Strikes - Gardiner in some doubt as well. See Hanley is looking forward to tangling with Crowley again as well.

Leppitsch raine-d on his parade?

no, just no.

[Ringo]

Not to be unexpected although I thought he would have been at least offered a reduced contract given his form in the NEAFL.

Will be interesting if picked up by another club and he resumes his tagging roles.

Can you take Mcguan with you Raines? Lol

[kilbluff1985]

so after he has played a few games

Crisp a good chance for M/F status?

[nrich102]

Would be crazy if he didn't. Wouldn't be surprised if he didn't play many games though  :-X

[Ringo]

He could be a DPP but I would not be holding breath waiting for games given the payers to return from injury. He would be behind Rocky, Redden, Hanley, Rich, Aish, Mayes, Lester in mids and Taylor, Bewick and Staker for H/F,
