The Kennedy trade delivered a flag against his old club
Not taking anything away from Hickey his been sensational though.

Will Hickey have to be strapped up every pre-game to minimise rotation?
I cringed when Tom first did follow up at centre bounce bending low to handball the ball out.

Big week for Tom next week against the best ruckman in the competition. Don't expect him to beat Gawn but it is great going into the game thinking there is a good chance we won't be smashed in the ruck and that Gawn will need to be held somewhat accountable.
I love Sinclair, and he did a really good job for us for years but we didn't draft him as a ruckman and it wasn't really a position he was suited for.

It's a mixed bag. You can get a good starting ruck from another club. The star ruckman still seem to be drafted and developed.
Starting rucks
Drafted: Gawn (34), Naitanui (2), Grundy (18), O'Brien (RD), Goldstein (37), Darcy (38), Marshall (RD), English (19), McInerney (RD), Draper (RD)
Acquired: Hickey (TRD), Martin (TRD), Pittonet (TRD), Stanley (TRD), Witts (TRD), McEvoy (TRD), Lycett (FA), Nankervis (TRD), Mumford (TRD)

Hickey is giving us what the best modern ruckmen provide and that's an extra midfielder. The most clearances last night with 10.
He's great in the tap but he follows up his own ruck work or is able to take it straight out of the ruck. He's having an incredible season for us.

No tricks.
Just miraculous healing powers.
The plan is to poach them from the eagles. Working ok so far.

Seems like he was a great guy with every club. Appears to have settled in here really well. There are a few players at a similar life stage and the youngsters seem to really look up to him. I'm guessing of course but I reckon family life is going well too. Sydney fans love his energy and quirkiness. We've always fancied ourselves as a club that can resurrect careers.
In any case, he is most likely leading our B&F, is definitely our AFLCA votes leader and seems to be having the fun of Cork.

You would make a good WA scout.
