Ta ta McG, if HOF hadn't done his knee he would have been delisted a month ago ... Still think he's surplus to requirements and any contract should be minimum chips after his last one.  Lots of promises, delivered very little.
DrE is no more... you ok with that harmonica man?

Yep, as I said previously I'd take Ryan Burton as a DFA and say bye to McGovern.

I saw somewhere that we are definitely looking at that as an option.

Not sure we can afford to cut loose Gov for the same reasons we 'must' keep Young......we have SFA as backup!

Boak will tell us whether Burton is a yes or a no.
2021-Pi$$ or get off the pot
2022- Real Deal or more of the same? 0.6%
2023- "Raise the Standard" - M. Voss Another year wasted Bar Set
2024-Back to the drawing boardNo excuses, its time
2025-Carlton can win the 2025 AFL Premiership

Why on earth would you jettison a seasoned if somewhat flakey but versatile player for a mediocre DFA who couldn’t get a game for Port Adelaide.

By all means move Gov on if there’s a better option but Ryan Burton?  Give me a break!

Ethan Phillips would be a much better pick up than Burton.

Philips is a KP player who cant kick with one AFL game and Burton is a running half back with 162 games and can kick the ball well....two different players...con on Burton has been his injuries so he would need a careful medical check. I watched Philips get intimidated and well beaten by some no name VFL journeyman from Frankston so no thanks.
As I have said previously I would prefer Jacob Blight ex Richmond as a backup KP defender over Philips.
Burton is comparable to McGovern in size and the latter has been a over paid disappointment for years now and thats why he hasnt been offered a contract and the powers at be denied him a trigger game for a new deal, not really a vote of confidence and id expect him to join Burton as a DFA and maybe the likes of West Coast can give him a home.

I’m glad you don’t have any influence over our list management decision making EB.
