Rumour Brad Dick

Wizard · Nov 11, 2011

COLLINGWOOD'S Brad Dick is likely to join Fremantle as a rookie, with the former Magpies forward meeting Ross Lyon and Dockers officials as soon as this morning.

I can deal with that, would be a very handy inclusion for a rookie list spot.
Kid can seriously play if he gets fit, easily best 22 at the Pies if his body had held up.

Edit:
Looks like Lyon has agreed to get Dawson now. The terms for joining Freo in 2012 is he wanted to play with Dick.

Alfonz · Nov 11, 2011

I thought he was on the verge of retirement forced by injury?

Would be an excellent addition if somehow he could get fit.

Jezzitizle · Nov 11, 2011

Would be stoked if we got him, hopefully his body gets more hardy as he matures.

mr.11 · Nov 11, 2011

Isn't he coming back from doing his ACL???

freodog · Nov 11, 2011

If we get both Dawson and Dick, will there be a photo on the back page of the paper with Dawson holding a condom packet next to Dick? - courtesy of the st kilda school girl of course.

freodog · Nov 11, 2011

Seriously though if he can get his body right he can play. Just so skinny

Purpellian Anchor · Nov 11, 2011

yes i guess he would be and i hope the best for Brad but two acls and two knee recons? he would have to be vulnerable i suspect to handle the physical workload and pressure on the body in afl.....but miracles do happen

Sounds a bit like our own Timmy Ruffles.

Better the devil you know....

There have been a lot of players who have had two recosand gone on to have great careers, McManus, Schwartz, I'm sure lenny Hayes will be a star next year, this is the reason why I think we should have given Tim another go and why I'm stoked we are recruiting dick, brad is an excitement machine when fit, and a perfect replacement for balla if he goes in the midfield, very happy

I wouldn't say thats a lot.

On Dick, he has such potential to be a brilliant crumbing forward if he can get his body right and that is a big if. I wouldn't be against the Eagles getting him if Freo decide not to go down that path.

Belele · Nov 11, 2011

Reckon he will be good, just concerned that injury prone players on the rookie list is risky.

The benefit of the RL is if we get a LTI we have someone ready to go to elevate, ala Barlow, Lower.

No use having injury prone players there if we cant elevate anyone, Dick, Roberts for example.

But reward > risk in Dick's case.

They aren't the only three, just the first three I thought of. It is possie that some players are just unlucky twice and not necessarily prone to knee injuries

I would love to see the headline "Dockers keen for Dick"
or "Dockers set to take Dick"

Today's Age has "Dick looks to join Dockers"
WHERE'S THE FUN IN THAT!?

I enjoyed the "Dick wants in at Fremantle" one :thumbsu:

or afterwards: "The Dockers have taken Dick"
and building up to his first game: "Dick set to penetrate barriers at Fremantle"

PS respect for the avatar!

Hehe the possibilities are endless
Cheers got it tattooed all up my are too, well the symbols anyway. Love apc

Purplrrr · Nov 11, 2011

I have had a massive soft spot for Collingwood ever since I saw DIck play for them, a great player to watch. Was really sad to see him delisted (though can understand why, unfortunately), and was just hoping ANY club would pick him up and give another chance. Would love it if Freo took the punt. And since Head is long gone, there is also a bad name position available.

Pusswah · Nov 11, 2011

Dick to lead all comers at Fremantle in the 3km time trial.

Oh God..I'm way too immature for this thread..

JunglistPosse · Nov 11, 2011

Hopefully that pussy MJ will be shaking in his boots

nurries · Nov 11, 2011

Imagine at the next Derby if he played and won the Rosco....

Our Little Dick is better than your big Cox

Nickos66 · Nov 11, 2011

both knees and shoulders reco'd? It'd leave a pretty sour taste in my mouth if we took Dick in the draft.

We took a lot of Dick in the drafts up to a couple of years ago.
