Should be a few one would think ... Bell to quit, Carr to move on, others like Johnson, Soloman, Bradley, Headland could be gone, Melbourne apparently chasing Warnock hard, yep could be a different looking outfit next year.

I don't think he has been and I don't think he will either. I'd suggest that Harvey will let him go around for a 'redemption' year next season. You can't throw the baby out with the bathwater. Got to have at least a few experienced heads about the place, even if there's nothing in them ha ha.
regards,

One of the most overrated players ever. Had one good season at Melbourne but aside from that he hasn't done much. Should have got the arse from Freo 2 or 3 seasons ago.

I think if you've played nearly 250 AFL matches and kicked over 400 goals you've got claims to being a very good footballer!
