Wouldn’t say I had an issue his entire career, just when he showed he wasn’t an AFL standard footballer and we kept him in the list.
Well the football department had reasons for giving him that extra year after he'd already been delisted but regardless of that, it's just not the case that we were building a list around him at any point. And with that last year, as far as the football department believed, it was more the case that the list we were building, with so many young players, was better served with him training alongside them and enforcing his dedication to training and preparation. You can say what you like about Kayne Turner's lack of talent or skill or elite quality any one area, but I don't think you could dispute that he eked the very most of his career that he was capable of. I'm not so sure that many others have done the same recently.
