Maybe, but who cares?
He's a 10 year key defender who we can build our defence around, why distract him by playing him out of position when we'll finish bottom three anyway?

Do we NEED him in defence?

Marchbank (20)
Plowman (22)
Jones (26)
Rowe (29)
Silvagni (29)

Yes we do, I think Jones(Assuming this current form isn't an aberration) and Weitering are the KPD pair we should build around for the next major tilt at finals, they could be around for another 6 to 8 years as a stable duo! I like the idea of Marchbank, Plowman, Docherty, Macreadie and Williamson working around them at ground level or pushing forward as I think they are more creative.

Rowe and Silvagni won't be around for a Premiership tilt, Macredie might not make the grade.
Weitering is the pick of them, why ruin what could be a top class defensive unit?

AFL advises Dale Thomas has withdrawn from Carlton side v WBull today.
Liam Sumner into 22 from emergencies.
Billie Smedts now extra emerg.

I suppose I'll still watch to see what Casey can do first game back, but I'm not confident now!

Likewise, too many VFL players in the team.
Re: Rd 17: pre Game Prognostications: Carlton vs Western Bulldogs - Baggers - 07-16-2017
Sumner replacing Daisy... yep, shows how decimated we are by injury. I would have thought Smedts to be a better proposition... c'est la vie.

Lets say we only get 2 more years out of each.
Lets look at what we had on our list (from the above list) 2 years ago.
Macreadie (19)
Marchbank (20)
Plowman (22)
Jones (26)
Rowe (29)
Silvagni (29)
We only had Jones and Rowe on our list 2 years ago.
So 2 years from now, who knows who else we'll have on our list so that we no longer require Weitering there.
Point is, for the next 2 years at least, we have an abundance of talent there without Weitering.
