What hanging offense?
It was a list of pros vs cons between the 2. Very similar players in a lot of ways. The one con that Brock had that Ellard didn't was his mouth. When you have to cut one, you go through the list of pros vs cons. What happened happened. Its a numbers game.
Laidler, Robinson, Garlett, Waite....even Betts and Fev are all examples of players who were let go by the club despite having some ability. All had more ability than Brock. The club set in place a direction that has pushed us to where we are today.
