Signing a two-year contract at the end of 2016 having missed a total of 11 games in 11 seasons, Danyle Pearce might have expected more than the seven senior games he was given in 2017. His spot was taken by Bradley Hill, and his final two games were spent at half back for an underwhelming 14 and 16 touches. It appears as if Ross Lyon stamped Pearce's papers fairly early in the piece, as it was clear that the Dockers weren't going to gain anything for the long term by playing old blokes. He was only ever a very low end fantasy starter anyway, so coaches in draft leagues will look to his younger teammates.
Deep cut for Pearce
