My post wasn't clear, sorry about that, but Kreuzer is clearly a keeper for what is left of his career. However, at this time of year, I would rather play a kid with upside rather than some list clogger who has already peaked. The mature agers have to be good enough players in their own right to deserve a game before any talk of mentoring.
Here's eight blokes brought in or retained to assist the kids but are now list clog:
Casboult. Not the future, not good enough.
Graham
Shaw
Mullet
OShea. Good NBs support.
Wright. Game has gone past him.
A. Silvagni. Permanently injured.
Lobbe. Apparently a good ruck mentor.
We need to do better, and get a lot more, from our mature bodies.
