Did anyone else wander down to Minotaur bookshop once a week to collect these?

Hi all, while procrastinating, I thought to chuck up a squad (with starting 23) that I've rated on my personal confidence for consistent AFL-standard. Also thrown into the secret herbs and spices is a players experience at the high level and therefore my confidence in decision making in high pressure situations.

Green = inexperienced without consistency
Yellow = showing consistent AFL-standard without experience (or vice versa)
Blue = solid, consistent performers with experience

The reason I've done this is I wanted to take a look at our current squad now we've let go of Ross and Membrey and what our list profile actually looks like. This is obviously completely subjective and I definitely have made some puzzling calls to the outside observer. Here's a few explained:

King (Green): King is obviously AFL standard but his consistency and my trust levels in him have taken a hit over the past two seasons. Big game moments, I don't know how he'd fair currently, but I recognise he's probably dealing with perfectionism and will build mental resilience around this

Stocker (Green): Didn't know where to put him. He is a very decent player and fits in well as a defensive mid and lockdown defender. But his games can fluctuate and never sure if he will be in the team.

Howard (Blue): I can hear people going off on this one but it is my opinion he is a very decent full back and we would ultimately be buggered without him. He makes poor attacking decisions at times but his actual work as a full-back is great, and a 200cm player that has the speed he does is very handy.

Henry (Yellow): Just snuck into a the middle class due to his performances in his final season at Freo and his impact when he was on the park for us this year.

Keen to hear what people think if you've made it this far in the post!

Hey guys. Wondering if Ollie has been signed to a new contract? I saw the game he played where he kicked 5 in the VFL, I think he can play. And apparently he has a brother about to go top 10 in the draft. Would love to see the Cats grab both, not sure of Ollie’s contract status however. Thank you.

With us not trading for Soldo and delisting Tom Campbell, who is back up ruck if Marshal is injured? Jack Hayes seems to be injured a lot himself so I’m not sure if we can rely on him. Do we have anyone playing in the twos who can step up next year if we need them?
