Heard from a reliable source.

He's unhappy at Melbourne playing a decoy role for Hogan and Melbourne are said to be unhappy with his output thus far. As Brisbane badly need a forward they have decided to take a punt on him.. will be one of the first deals done.

If we got him cheap he'd slot in where we were playing McGuane to give our young forwards a chance to develop. Is he carrying an injury, would he pass a medical?

Is , lack of ability, classified as an injury?
If so Dawes is severely injured!

Hahaha....he's in a rut, no doubt about it, if poor form is the only reason, then he's in one deeper than I would have thought.

Still wouldn't mind knowing where CDs at. We'd do well to get an older tall just too take a bit of pressure off some of our up and comers.

Off topic but is that The Miz from WWE in your avatar?

Yeah, sure is, good spot!

Well, that the problem right there. He is doing an excellent role as a decoy.

Has anyone told him that's it's OK to take a mark and kick a goal or two?

Brisbane have a number of key forwards. Freeman, McStay, Close, Paine and will most likely add Schache and Hipwood, making six. They will be keen to get games into them over the next season.

Yeah I have. Close was the preferred key forward at the start of the season before his season ending injury. He's played 15 games so far.

Paine is a back up forward. Unlikely to be used, apart from depth.
