I think Morro gets a lot of injuries because he gets a hell of a lot of ball and doesn't go missing in defence. Only issue I have with him is he passes when he shouldn't and doesn't when he should.

:/

Paul Cooke- Get playing with the team or shut
Kyle Bibb- had his chance and missed it
Paul King- Keep
Tevita Leo Latu? - He can add something when we look flat/
better if the team knows what he's doing
Glenn Morrision missing his effort
Paul Johnson- Depends if there is anyone younger available
Danny Kirmond (Loan finishes)- Decent player
Jason Demetriou Had a good innings

May not be the player he was but he bleeds red white and blue! Add him to the Johnny Thompson camp

I know JK has to look at this isue now, but ATEOTD it depends who comes in as to who goes, along with the form of the younger players who are currently on the fringes, Trout, etc. I think the Quota also reduces again next season so a lot of thought needs to be given to the matter. That said, I`d still be delighted to see the back of Cooke & Bibb asap!

Paul Cooke - don't let the door slam on your way out please
Kyle Bibb - b'bye
Paul King - 1 more year
Tevita Leo Latu - keep
Glenn Morrision - 1 more year
Paul Johnson - release
Danny Kirmond (Loan finishes) - try to keep
Jason Demetriou - remain at the club in a non-playing role (coaching, community, ambassador etc)

Peolpe keep stating we need to keep JD in some capacity and that's all very well, but any role we 'create' is going to cost. Are we a) able to afford this and b) will people be happy with us spending some of our limited resources in this manner?

Don't disagree with the idea in principle but it's not as easy as it may sound imo

True you can't just invent a job, if theres a current postion open then i'm all for it.

You can; it's the money to pay the wages you can't invent!

I'm sure though that between now and the off season, something could be worked out using natural wastage and maybe some grant funding, to get JD into schools and other community settings, promoting the club, the game and all round great-blokeness, which he has in spades.

If we offered Jd a role with the coaching staff as a specialist skills coach for 15-20k he could then take a part time contract to make up some more money if he needed it. win win for both parties and i'm certain he work wonders with the likes of gleeson, george trout morton blanch, and other young players. fat is john and beans have been out of game a long time and he may bring some fresh ideas. worth a thought i would think.

Yes you are correct.

IMO if he wants some sort of "role" and we can find a way to do that then its no more than he deserves.
