Don't you get the feeling he'd get dropped for Damien Martyn though?
I really hope White get's half as many chances as North has to be fair to the guy.

I personally get the feeling there's a fair bit of insecurity among the leadrship group about White. Not so much in the Test scene, but certainly in the Twenty/20 and ODI arenas.
Edit- We're getting away from the theme of the thread, but I doubt Rocco will mind the additional post count!

more than a few Ekers...

After Richmond announced their delistings today, a future Eker Hall-of-Famer has escaped the chop once again -- Jake King, take a bow. Has a less talented player played as many roles as Jake the Rake has? His capacity for reinventing himself constantly despite having little to no variety in his skillset is practically Madonna-esque.. how many ways can you do/say the same thing and call it something different? Madonna has been doing it for 4 decades, so Jake has a bit of catching up to do, but becoming a 'defensive forward' as his latest chameleon trick is as good a place to start as any.
We must now say goodbye to another Eker.
Leigh Harding, who made Rocco's original Eker list, has announced his retirement.
89 Games and 123 Goals in a career spanning 10 years.
A Carlton eker retired aswell but his name escapes me.....Hadley?
Cracking good nomination. Jake King has probably extracted the longest AFL career in inverse proportion to his actual talent since Andy Goodwin was running around as one of the pioneers of the Eker movement.
He even got a jumper upgrade from 46 to 28 for his troubles. Long may he continue to physically and verbally torment Didak and still eventually get torched in the other direction.
