Is Longer really that much of an upgrade on Hickey in the ruck? Like not around the ground but in the ruck itself.

It seems to be like because he's more muscly, and maybe a centimeter taller, the assumption is that he's a better or more physical ruckman.

I'm not having a go at anyone but I'm wondering where the notion that Billy is more physical comes from?
We could trade Hickey to the Hawks in exchange for ...... oh wait .

Let's just stop and dream for a second


Imagine an off season that sees us land fyfe and jelly. I'm not sure if we can even afford them both.... but imagine those 2 in the midfield...


Yep. I need a moment
Yep, that's my question. It's probably been discussed before, but i cant be arsed searching pages of Kelly Fyfe references:

Could we afford both an unbeatable offer to Kelly and a godfather offer to Fyfe? It may be that we already have a gentleman's agreement with Fyfe and are therefore not in a position to make Kelly an offer, which may be why we haven't.

Anyone know what our possibilities are for salary? (not trade power, which obviously won't be a problem)

I reckon it would take 2m easily

1.2m for fyfe
800k for jelly

Even then I'm probably short.

But allowing for the fact that we know we have over a mill spare, surely with some offloading of players etc we could make it happen? Surely? Right?????


Don't you ******s DARE shatter my dream!

really? hahaha any good posts?

i think it confirms that the trade was a good one for us
McEvoy is dominating. I hope he's signed to a long term deal.
Sorry, I have a mate in the cheer squad last name McEvoy. Call him "Little Boy." His task was to chug everytime Witts won a hit out. He's shit faced. Cheer Squad need him long term though.

Try 2.5. Lets get one star before we worry about 2.

Rumour getting around jaeger has a knee problem and won't play this weekend. Sucks for him but kudos Rors
Not answering for Rors but I was a little surprised people were jumping on him after O'Meara had a good debut. From memory, Rors always talked about the fact that his durability/dealing with week in/week out trauma to his knee was going to be his big problem. So in other words, yes he might have good moments but he won't be able to keep it up.

If Jaeger is out, Rors seems pretty spot on so far.
