3rd oldest team - have heard that quoted a few times. Not sure if it relates to age (guessing it is) or games played. We do have some older boys with low kms on the clock though.
Definitely relating to Age.
Showed a stat where we were a year older on average vs the Lions today.
Just on that, we have quite a few players who are in the team, but not really relied upon.
Played today (age) - Could take their spot (age)
Army (30) - Boekhorst (22)
White (28) - Jaksch (21)
Walker (30) - J. Silvagni (18)
Everitt (27) - C. Curnow (19)
You could replace any of them without too much drama
If we did that, we are a year younger than the lions today.
Add to that...
Jamo (30) likely to retire.
Wood (29) a rookie likely to retire
Rowe (28) is currently in top form, but is also in the process of being replaced by Plowman/Weitering combo.
We also have a few more mature rookies in
Sheehan (25)
Korcheck (24)
Galucci (22)
...who could easily be replaced by younger rookies.
Yes we are old, but our talent lies within the younger brigade.
