Barker would be good as a 2nd string rider. Lets not forget he is more than capable of getting a 6.5 average and he would start at around 4.8. We could get close to the limit with this side,
Doyle
Barker
Larsen
Garrity
Harris
Sarjeant
Bates
I think that team looks ok, I know people dont like Barker (I'm not a fan of him as a person) but he can stick 1.5 on his average. Plus we get 3 heatleaders.
Cant see us signing Barker unless we sign Doyle or someone a 9pt average as we'd be quite below the limit.
