    And you don't say where they have gone. Sam Butler is a player who has tempted me in SC on many occasions. At his peak he can belt out 100+ scores. Sadly he is rarely at his peak anymore and I would not have been surprised had he retired. Interesting that you think he has a season of some value ahead of him, given the almost total restructuring that is bound to occur at Wet Toast. If Kerr would only retire, I might be tempted to take a punt on Rosa.

    Those plains be the Powlett Plains :)
    I have been frustrated with Butler for 2 years, he is a gun, but like many of mine have been is very injury prone. When healthy he provides very good scores, at 27 he should have plenty of life left in him yet, and if an 80 pt Fwd is worth pick 3 I am sure as hell hanging onto my 80 point back :p

    <p style='font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; line-height: 18px;]Revised Listing... Misfits legitimately up for grabs and approx cost.

    Brad Sewell - R2 pick Jarrad Waite - R2 pick
    [span style='text-decoration: line-through;]Matt Rosa - R2/3 pick or Gone[span style='text-decoration: line-through;]
    Sean Dempster - R3 pick
    Michael Firrito - Whatever I can get
    [span style='text-decoration: line-through;]Rhys Stanley -Gone
    Aaron Cornelius - Packet of smarties


    These guys are also up for grabs, but at an appropriate, variable and occasionally exorbitant, asking price.

    Corey Enright <div>(One of the below 3 only)
    Thomas Nicholls - Has a higher value than Bellchambers
    Patrick Ryder - Has a higher value than Bellchambers or Nicholls
    <p style='font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; line-height: 18px;]Tom Bellchambers - Traded out Greene to get him, improve that or don't worry about it :) <div style='font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; line-height: 18px;]David Myers
    Tom Young
    Nathan Bock
    [span style='text-decoration: line-through;]Toby Greene- Gone


    If they are not listed, they are not tradeable.

    We are seeking mids under 25 or 2014 PSD picks in the first 4 rounds.

    Not even remotely interested in trading out my low picks, but happy to have yours. <div>

    Marble Bar welcomes Tayte Pears to the squad whilst farewelling Matt Rosa.
    Matt's departure is regrettable, but required as we continue a youth focus across the paddock, and Tayte is a promising young defender we hope will serve for many years

    Our squad has rapidly turned away from being one of the oldest and now has an average age of 23.3 with a median of 23, it is likely this will drop after delistings. We currently have 26 players, there is a trade period yet to happen before compulsory delisting but Aaron Cornelius and Micheal Firitto are currently washing my car with a single bristle toothbrush each...
    Our Preseason draft picks are now2, 20, 36, 49, 74, 92 meaning that all picks requiring to be exercised are in the first three rounds.
    Focus has been on obtaining strength in KP areas, this has in fact been a little too successful, as it stands we have 12 players who can play Def, 9 who can play Fwd, 3 who can play ruck, but only 6 mids. We anticipate holding a strong hand at the preseason draft table and will be targeting at least one quality mid under 25, the focus of our draft analysis will be in the same area. The future is looking quite rosy out Marble Bar way.

    Recent underpinning has not escaped our attention.

    Underpinning can be painful, unless you use disposable nappies. Unpinning is straight up sexy.

    In the upcoming trade period Marble Bar is seeking to trade into a top 15 draft pick. Give the value of Garlett at pick 3 we are, in comparison, prepared to pay well over.

    Marble Bar management wish to announce they have resolved a potential board spill. Following a review of the last two years it became clear that 1/2 the management team was simply not carrying it's weight. Accordingly, h191 has been sacked.

    Thanks for the update Len - fyi,h191 has made contact seeking to sell your draft secrets in return for a long term deal that made Buddy's look attractive. Eventually he spilled all for a glass of wine and a silverside sandwich.

Eventually he spilled all for a glass of wine and a silverside sandwich. I'm sad to say chels, this was not unexpected, he was in charge of recruitment at the first draft, unfortunately, he was also in charge of the bar, nuff said about that combo.. During subsequent drafts he served in an advisory role, fortunately though when tasked with researching next years PSD crop, he was accidentally given a pdf entitled 'Playboy' instead of 'Playbook', he has either been too stupid or too busy in the time between then and the conclusion of this review to let us know..
    Unless you are targeting bunnies, you possibly overpaid with the wine :)

    relax len, we did not waste good local wine on him - just a cheap SA import. The silverside was past its use by date and the bread quite stale, yet he seemed grateful.
    His advice was not much chop either - he reckoned Dan H and a sweetener would possibly secure Rhys Stanley - we told him 'he was dreaming'. There was no chance if us securing such an obviously one sided deal.
