Sad reality. Great kid, great enthusiasm, quick... but when you're this small/slight you've gotta have some tricks. Few months to find a trick or two.

I think we wont be parting ways with Dylan just yet.
He didnt earn a rising star nomination for nothing and has only clocked up 31 AFL games.
Can kick a goal and has elite pace. Might be struggling for form or fitness, but I think there are a few that should be shed before we even look at Buckley.

Buckley's problems are between his ears and that's something that's almost impossible to fix.

What hope does Casboult have then?

Casboult has one really good trick that is saving his career, what is Buckley's?

*meep meep*

It's a fair question, why avoid answering it?
Casboult's career is saved by his contested marking, take that away and he probably even falls in behind Jaksch and Gorringe.
For Buckley, other than being "The Son of a Gun", what is his "trick"?
What earns him a spot on an AFL match day in either the pocket or a flank ahead of Sumner, Lamb, Byrne, Tuohy, Armfield, etc., etc.? They are the players he is competing with, we can assume he is well behind players like Simpson, Murphy, E.Curnow and Docherty in pecking order, so no point listing them, so he competes for a 2nd or 3rd tier spot at the moment.

I think the "meep meep" is the answer - getaway speed.

re: Buckley...popular player within the group and a father/son.....reckon one out of Boekhorst, Tutt and Buckley will be retained and my money would be on the father/son pick getting a reprieve...

Pace and pressure. Run and carry
