Ben Hughes

[goodie]

Delisted by The Kangaroos, could he be a prospect for us to possibly rookie list this year??

if not we'll have him back home to nilma darnum


Height:192cm
Weight:93kg
Recruited From:Gippsland U18
Birth Day:30 August 1988

Hughes is a tall key-position player that played at both ends of the ground for Gippsland in the 2006 TAC Cup. He played 20 games last season and kicked 32 goals, while his 41 contested marks ranked sixth in the competition. At 192 cm and 93kg, Hughes already has the size to be an AFL player.

ok, has the size but there must be a reason he got the a$se as North!!! Do you know what that was? Soft? No heart?

no idea.........
dean laidleys a ******** maybe?

Have seen ben play many times.....moves well to the ball and reads the play without any problems.

Big body and great height, but does get lost abit if the team is losing.

IMO he would be a great Rookie or late pick in the ND.

Gippy boys rate him highly and im not sure why the Roos delisted him but he could become a quality AFL player in the right side. Tiges are a young list with nothing to lose so he could fit in well with us.

 

[davey_23]

Would be worth a spot on the rookie list imo

 

[Ah Cheung]

Where was he taken in the draft? Or was he a rookie with the roos as well?

 

[Richo Man]

He was rookie listed. Id look at him. Just curious to know why kangas let go of him so quickly.

 

[RichosGuns]

I honestly don't think the Kangaroos are that much of a better side then us, that they just rather played well beyond themselves this year. At 192cm, I think he is a bit too small. Other then Richo we have no KPP player at either end taller then 195cm.

I think we need to draft at least 1 KPP player (prefable foward who may be able to go back ie Pavlich, McGuane) who is 195cm+. Simply because we have Thursty, McGuane, Schultz, Riewoldt, Hughes, etc. who are all 191-193cm. These are tall guys but I think we just need to draught a monster (195-198), even if he is a bit light on and takes 3 years to develop.

Your youngsters are pathetic. Don't even try to even compare them to ours. Just watching the VFL grandfinal showed us you have nothing.


Back on the topic, would be a handy pickup for you guys. Even though i'm disgusted in the way the club delisted him, none of us north fans have no clue why he was delisted. He showed good signs too and i thought he would have been elevated hours before he was delisted. Could be very handy.

But yet your youngsters who by your own admission are much better couldn't get ther VFL affilate into the grand final.

Your AFL Club are pathetic. Don't even try to even compare them to ours. Just watching the AFL Finals showed us you have nothing. lol

haha spot on.

they got spanked twice in the finals which is pretty poor for a team that finished top 4.

they had a better year then us and although the geelong loss was embarassing.

what is more embarassing is getting belted by over 80 points in 2 of 3 finals games.

Your Kidding Piss off idiot you got Thrashed through the finals and you still havent signed your coach you have a cheek to have a go at our young guys.

Your team was belted by 15 goals twice during the finals that speaks for itself. A good team does not get belted like that twice in one finals series.

Actually champ any team can make finals, good ones don't get belted when twice when they are in them.

anyteam besides richmond,

 

[goodie]

worst troll of the year. your trying to give us crap for not being very good..... don't think thats happened to us this year champ? did you come up with the idea to come in here and do that or was the kanga's yearly budget of about 100k pumped fully into this operation..

you're a tool.

Appart from the insult (and why wouldn't you toss one in whilst on an opposition team's board?), interesting information. Thanks giantroo

 

[diligaf]

anyteam besides richmond,

Remember this quote f**kwit, "2008 Sliders of the Year will be the Roos!" On the positive side, you will obtain hight draft picks desperately required to boost your lack of "game breakers". You were certainly an embarrasment to Victoria and the '07 Finals Series!
