From zmans:

"I think there would be a cloud over Dawes playing with us next year....he would be worth 12 points...?"

Z, I think you will find that Dawes was signed for two years and I for one would keep him at least another year! I think he was a victim of the selection process. Others in the same situation IMO were Ben Stratton (after injury), Daniel Jones (before injury) and Jake Lalich! image

One Eastern Stater that may be a worry though (but I hope not), is Nick Kane! He may want to go to Adelaide where his brother played for Glenelg! We tried to sign Ben, but the money took him to SA! Gee, wouldn't it be nice if he was to come over here to join Nick? image
