I hate goons. I think staged fights are an embarrassment to the game. I don't like diluting talent with players that fight better than they play. I don't think they enforce the game in a meaningful way. When they try it usually leads to suspension and unnecessary injury. If you insist on them don't waste assets on them.
That said, when you are filling the team with kids it does make them feel protected. McGrattan is great in the locker room. So keeping a couple of these guys around isn't the end of the world.
