Delisted #46: Mitchell Hibberd - Not offered a contract for 2021

[srobbo]

Really interested to see where he’s at fitness wise & whether he’s in the frame for selection in a fortnight.

Looks like a solid unit from the training gallery photos

Clearance beast at VFL level at least.

Could he debut round 2? Smith can play more of a forward 50 role and he could go head to head with Kennedy.

If they rate him as more than depth, this is the perfect match up.

Oh, snap! Just responded with this to your Begley post.

Reckon he just got the break his career needed.

Pun intended.

Bring him in, pay the fine.

Wont be this week, but with Hepp out he is a chance to come in at some point

Dude, no. Just no.

love me some gallows humour

He has to come in surely. Otherwise why have him on the list?

 

[quotemokc]

Is he closer to selection than Clarke?

Will struggle to play a game in 2020 and could very well be cut from the list.

Heppell's out for 8 weeks. Hibberd will play at some point.

This would be a big mistake. Has the potential to be fill a need in our team so I'd be very disappointed if he wasn't at least given a run.

Interesting. Is he that far off the pace.at training or have you heard something else? Hard to imagine we'd bring him in, have Heppell out and he doesn't get a block of games.

Where is that coming from?
Did you see a lot of him at vfl level?

It's an informed opinion - Injured in the pre-season, no VFL to show his attributes, little mention from the track watchers - Then you combine this with the likely cut to list sizes which makes it tough.

it is an opinion but it is hardly informed. It could be very close to the mark but no one know how this season pans out let alone what they will or will not do with list sizes. As far as little mention from the track watchers. Maybe they do not know who he is and secondly the track watches are currently watching from the footpath on Melrose drive. Personally I have heard he has been going along okay.

 

[TheGrizz]

If we lose McGrath and Zerrett are out he must be every chance of a game...

 

[eth-dog]

Please play him so our midfield has at least a little bit of size.

Surely they give him a go soon. Would love to see this on ball line up later this year.

very likely that's our best midfield.
Bit worrying it involves a discard from North & a zero gamer (nothing against the players - wtf is up with our depth!)
