Kikau makes more sense. Where does Burton fit it?

He doesn't. Unless one of our halves go. There will be plenty of rival teams offering him half money. Perth for one.Why come here for less and play out of position?

Kikau I read wanted to remain at the Dogs.

Cross Luai, Api and Crichton out. Turuva seems happy.

Spencer makes more sense. He doesnt fit in there. Highly probable Henry, Sorro and Garner depart. Giving us an opportunity to recruit an experienced forward. To help the young kids coming through.

I think 10 is too many but with the game now and HIAs I can see up to 8.
The one thing I believe is most important is not have specific head injury subs, that gives teams a place to cheat the system.
Sorry, I disagree in this instance. Why would you ever want to replace a starter with a reserve. Don't forget for HIA players, that HIA player can't come back onto the field. If the reserve was that good, they start.

I am quite happy to have as many reserves as they want. Makes me sick when teams have 2 or even 3 HIA's and have one guy sitting on the bench. That team has zero chance of competing. Quite happy to increase to 6 but certainly could live with 8-10 (but that would seem unrealistic).

Cheats like Craig Bellamy will always find a way to abuse a system.
