Even if he doesn't get off the bench very often he will be worth the wage. Anyway we have to keep him involved to take over when Callum gets his big move.

The article does not state they offered him a contract, “We have started speaking to Easty." “There is a desire to offer him something." The desire may not have come to fruition or if they did it could have been a reduction in salary or something else which was less than the contract he was on. Easty may have wanted to stay but got a better offer from Hamilton. When I stated "I would have given him another year's contract" I would have given him an acceptable one.

He had played about 1 game in 18 months, was 31, and had already been replaced. Why would you give him the multi-year deal, on the wage of a regular starter, which is presumably what Hamilton offered him? It's fine to look back in retrospect and see he's done sort of alright as a CB for a side continously in the bottom two, but it's a bit weird when we have 3 better CBs, and 2 more reliable LBs, in the squad than Easton was at that time.

Melbourne Saint Posted March 15, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2021 Easton is a battler, no doubt. We play sexy football. Not folk that kill people on the field. We are a new team, we attack, defend, CD is a chess champion. We need an CM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny B Posted March 15, 2021 Report Share Posted March 15, 2021 He has nailed his formations to the mast 3.4.2.1 and 3.4.1.2 We have 3 good centre backs. As we will continually play 3 at the back do we need better cover incase of injury Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueheaven Posted March 15, 2021 Report Share Posted March 15, 2021 Loved Easton when he was here but we've done really well in finding both Tanser and Booth as our options for left-back and Easton would never have had the legs to fit into the wing-back system we've shifted to since he left. Undoubtedly he'd have been useful back-up for our defence but part of what made Hamilton's offer preferable was probably that he'd get more opportunity to play regularly with them.
