With the lack of depth and with Chaz getting hurt he would've been pigeonholed on the OL, remember CTT didn't bring in a OL for the '08 Class, only 3 of the '07 Class qualified, Fairley would've been #4. So yeah, by lack of depth, I can say that Fairley would've been stuck. Boom goes the dynamite.
Whatever you say is gross speculation. You have no idea whatsoever what would actually have transpired. You can make up scenarios and devise possibilities until the cows come home but since it didn't happen you don't KNOW shit.
In case you didn't notice, the starting OL this season all came to AU before Fairley. You don't know who might have been recruited in 2009.
It's all supposition. And it means nothing.
For the record? Boom goes the dynamite is one of the stupidest things you say. Typically you call boom when the best you have is a fizzle.
