For some reason I keep calling him Wheelie Bin.
As in Ashley Giles.
Fletcher is better than Gwilt and plays the same role. Gwilt is depth.Gwilt and now Giles and Cooney saying that Hird is a part of the reason they're coming. I'm guessing that Hird thinks we're a shot at contending next year.
I also suggest that Giles does fit in the side with Bellchambers .... providing Bellchambers stops modelling his forward movement on the statue of liberty.
I think that we also got caught out for size in the backline against North so Carlisle + Hooker can take any height and Gwilt can take the 3rd tall or a Black/Gunston/Darling type.
Hird to be stubborn and send Hurley forward. The biggest deficiency in our side last year was the forward line and a hardworking half forward of football ability is what is lacking. Hurley will play high half forward, resting ruck deep and Daniher in between them. I could handle:
HF: Cooney Daniher Hurley
FF: Chapman Giles Winderlich
and
FB: Gwilt Hooker Baguely
HB: Dempsey Carlisle Hiberd
It means Ambrose and Fletch are our depth for next year.
Fletcher is better than Gwilt and plays the same role. Gwilt is depth.

I very much doubt thatNot next year he wont be. Fletch won't play more than 10 games.
You make a ******* solid case...Gwilt and now Giles and Cooney saying that Hird is a part of the reason they're coming. I'm guessing that Hird thinks we're a shot at contending next year.

He may not play more than 10 games but that'll be because he's injured, not because Gwilt is ahead of him in the pecking order.Not next year he wont be. Fletch won't play more than 10 games.

I hadn't really considered the possibility that Hird might **** with Hurley's position again, but it certainly is possible and has a logic to it.
I really hope you are wrong because i don't think Hurley knows how to protect himself as a footballer. As a defender you are not physically exposed like a forward is and i think that is what has delivered the absence of injuries for him this year. I don't mind him swinging forward for a quarter or so, because he runs on adrenaline for a while and seems to hold it together. As soon as he starts to flag, he just throws his body in like a kamikaze.
He also has arthritis in his wrists and shouldn't be attempting to mark out in front of his body on the lead. It would be tragic to watch him go down again
He may not play more than 10 games but that'll be because he's injured, not because Gwilt is ahead of him in the pecking order.
Can we get Hird to have a chat with Pendlebury, Fyfe and Cameron next off-season?

So what?I was born in the same year as him ... trust me.
I bumped into Giles at my local shops about an hour ago. He's a huge unit, that's for sure. He was in shorts and a tank top and wasn't afraid to show off the guns. He looked in great shape considering that this time of the year players have a lot of social activities they have to catch up on. He's probably keeping fit chasing animals at his folks' property like any good country boy should. Hopefully he works out for you guys, I was really hoping that my club drafted him.
No. He's from SA, where I'm from. Barossa Valley (his junior club was Kapunda) which is an hour out of Adelaide. He was recruited from Central District in the SANFL.He a geelong boy?
If you want to be specific, no. Kapunda is in the Light Regional Council which borders the Barossa, but to simplify it for non-SA people, I just said Barossa. It was actually the shops in Nuriootpa where I saw him...He's from my neck of the woods, though, I wouldn't associate Kapunda with the Barossa Valley
