Maynard, Scharenberg, Williams, Sinclair, Langdon & Tooves would all be in front of him for game time.

Just doesn't fit a need in my opinion.

Yep, this. Don't think he's as good as a couple of our emerging kids so why bother.

i think he'd be good for the development of some of our young guys. it allows us a bit more flexibility in managing the fitness backline during the season.

I think he'd be excellent for the development of our young guys. Our running small/mid defenders are Williams, Langdon, Scharenberg and Maynard and whilst they all look exciting propositions for the future, an experienced head like Adcock who's been in that role for the better part of a decade could be fantastic for them; especially barking instructions on match day. The losses of Maxwell, Shaw and Lumumba in previous years has been covered up talent wise, but I think we're definitely lacking a bit of leadership/teaching in this area.

For a delisted FA, I say get Jed.

Turns 30 in a few days, so for me it's a no.

Won't argue too much if we pick him up, can seriously play, unlike just about every other DFA that is out there.

What's an X Factor? A show made about Cyril, by Bruce?

Could we play him for a couple of years as small forward until someone else is drafted in?

Good logic you blokes. Let's get him.
He's no plodder either, has a match-hardened body, and a decade of pre-season campaigns in the gearbox. And he'll be affordable too...

Dyso

I am happy to get Adcock if we get him, I think the development factor is a massive plus. He's got the experience we need, he has leadership experience we can very much use. If we get 3 seasons out of him and have him teaching the players in a development role as well then it's a great setup to have.

So we could leave a Fasolo, Elliott, Blair, Varcoe or Broomhead out of the side to give him game time... me thinks not.
