giving nothing so far-

NAB - he made up his own mind
Pickers talked to him on the phone last night and told hom it would be front page news, he couldnt belive it.
Leadership group talked with him
Moons texted bomber about NAB and really wants him there
what happens if he comes back - Bomber has no idea.

Bomber seemed to not give a ****, it was like yeh well if he plays he plays hes an amazine talent and so on, IMO bomber knows theres other players there to fill the gap.

I don't blame him for being cool about it. The last thing to do is go making a big deal about it publicly because that would send the wrong message to Nathan. Give him some space to work it out. If he doesn't want to play then while I am sure Bomber would be disappointed all he can do is move on to Tommahawk.

I think he was only just aware of it, like everybody else. I don't think he wanted to talk about it, what can he say anyway. Interesting the stuff about Hawkins - was in a shocking state when he started last year, fitness improved throughout the year. In a much better state now.

can you give more details about what he said about tommy?
They were asking if he will be in better shape this year given that last year had a bit out of shape when he arrived. Bomber said he was in shocking state when he arrived last year bit improved a lot during the year. He was in better shape now than last year.

you just have to watch the VFL GF again to see the difference. Hawkins at the start of 2007 looked at least 10kg overweight.....Hawkins in the VFL GF looked buff for want of a better word. I suspect we will see a much fitter Hawkins in the preseason games.

You're right. That's what Bomber was saying about him improving fitness wise. Good news if he is much fitter.

Completely agree. There's also Davenport and some of those new tall recruits.

He is tanked. Looks really fit and raring to go. He was the first one i noticed when i saw training. Has really toned up.
