News Billy Frampton signs with Collingwood

[GreyPower]

Billy Goat Frampton. Welcome my man. Maybe he will be the GOAT?








No pressure.

I'll call him Billy the Goose when he kicks his first goal from 2 metres out.

 

[shine hosking]

what ever Billy becomes at least he has skill for a big guy, how many ruckman just handball the ball off because they dont want to kick it?

 

[It Just Is]

I wonder what position the club sees Billy playing?

From his highlights he doesn't seem the most natural tap ruckman but it does look like he moves really well around the ground. Wouldn't be surprised if Ken has him shadowing Westhoff or Trengrove over the summer.

Love this pick.

 

[Garibaldi Red]

Unless we have some early picks we may have to do with Bill and Boyd.

As long as we don't end up with Bill and Ben, they would need weeding out.

 

[Powerstufff]

Now we can trade-on Ryder.

 

[Papa G]

Could still grow yet.

Looks good around the ground, quite skilled. Attitude.

Third ruck in line, maybe second.

Go Billy.

Oh Billy

More info on Billy Frampton:

After a long injury layoff to start his debut season at the club, Billy Framptons SANFL debut was worth the wait. He took 5 strong grabs and kicked 2 goals playing up forward in Round 9 to start his season with a bang. Whilst his form wavered throughout the year, Billy showed a lot of potential playing both as a key forward and in the ruck. His strong contested marking was a highlight, as was his love of the niggle. He ended the season kicking 9 goals for the year including a decent finals series as well. As the third and final ruckman in our squad for 2016, the club will be hoping illy continues to improve to become a viable AFL backup throughout the season.

Is actually pretty good in traffic.

Wonder if he has a similar story to Treadrea – originally a midfielder but grew a little too tall.

Billy's WAFL colts stats look good for a big fellow. He had 25 possession games twice this year
