You know what he offers us. 100% effort and pace.
He was elevated to a leader this season and we don't play him.
I reckon he'd offer more than Sumner/Lamb/Buckley/Palmer/Smedts/Boekhorst but he's wasting away in the 2's.
Hasnt touched the footy in the NB's....done and dusted as a player, might get the farewell game...

Fair point...some players dont bother getting up for 2's footy and maybe if he was in the seniors he might go harder and better.
I like Denis but he hasnt justified a recall based on form...Dylan Buckley is probably next in the que and with his career on the line he probably deserves a couple of games to
show what he has got...

oh sure, it should be (largely) merit based, maybe a send off game?

Denis should be tearing it up in the VFL but he's barely having an impact. I reckon that's not down to lack of effort, the game has passed him by ... and that happens to most great servants of the club. It may be a little harsh but, with hindsight, giving Denis another year was perhaps not the best list management decision. It seems that the club is interested in his coaching potential but that shouldn't mean allowing him to take up a spot on the list that could have gone to someone with potential to crack the AFL side.
Like most supporters, I'd love to see Dylan emulate his old man but I don't think it's going to happen. He is a great kick but simply doesn't get enough of the ball. I can't see how he could possibly get a game ahead of blokes who have been playing better footy.

Re: Dennis
His playing career may well be nearing an end. There's no doubt he's given his best and won many admirers.
I remember this time last year when Dennis cut loose v Crows. He kicked 4 goals in the first half. The crowd was chanting "give it to Dennis". Memorable. We lost by 10 goals but Dennis put on a clinic. Check the highlights reel if you want to see Dennis at his best....
