News Jared Polec signs for Hoppers Crossing

[Relativity]

Sooo, now this thread descends into wildly alternating shitecanning of Polec's football durability/consistency whilst simultaneously lauding how he is worth no less than a top 10 draft pick. I'll kick it off.
Good riddance. Took him a quarter of mind numbing brain farts before he produced anything good all year. Should land us at least Norf's first and second rounders which will cover us for a 250 game speedy inside/outside mid with laser boots and a mobile ruckman who can kick goals for the reserves and fill in in the backline for the seniors when Ryder goes down.

Where will you be?

Either the Gilbert or Lady Burra. Possibly the Cranker if I have to work late.

Not reading back through 75 pages to see if it's already been raised, but did we consider offering a 3-year deal with performance-based clauses that trigger player options for 4th and 5th years? Or a 4-year deal with a 5th year option?

Could you translate those pubs into English for a foreigner please mate?

Lady Burra is in Topham Mall. Real hipster vibe. Even the women have beards. Food is served on bits of wood, much cooler than plates. Beer is poured by baristas who create a leaf in the foam. You should feel right at home there.

The Cranker is The Crown & Anchor which is on Grenfell St in the east end. Pretty much in line with the Exeter on Rundle St.

The Gilbert is The Gilbert Street Hotel, on Gilbert Street, about 200m west of King William street. Best range of beers on tap.

There’s also West Oak Hotel (ex World’s End) in Hindley St West. Recently refurbished and one of the closest pubs city side of the oval.

No goal of the week for R22 for Jared Polec. 28.8% of the vote to Josh Caddy's 51.4%.

 

[Magus]

I wish he wasn't playing tonight

to be fair i thought his was the weakest of the nominations. Caddys was easy the best

 

[Grave Danger]

Clubs cop shit when their crowds boo visiting players for whatever reason, but it would go to another level if our lot boo Polec tonight.

 

[StuMan]

I'll be pretty disappointed if any of our nuffs boo him tonight.
Boo him next year if you really have to, but tonight he is still playing for us.

Also, although it is 99% likely he is leaving, it's still all the media "understands" and "reportedly" right now.

 

[Spadge]

maybe if the 'nuffs' boo him it might actually confirm his decision

 

[Magus]

I wont boo him but I won't cheer him either. Then theres the risk of injury. Playing him in a dead rubber is just dumb.

If he gets injured then he stays?

 

[finbarr]

Did Polec just get an extra loud cheer from the cheer squad when he ran out for the warm up? Lol.

Fair enough. He's one of us until he isn't, and he could well be the difference between the sides today.

 

[Power Raid]

I’m concerned Polec is just the first to walk

It could be an interesting few remaining ken years

Happy to see a few more walk when they have currency like polly

 

[It Just Is]

Pay Polec. Plenty we can cut if that’s what is required.

 

[port_adelaide_1870]

Give him what he wants. Would rather give him 5 years and keep him. F**k me you have a 4 year deal to Rockliff at 27 years old
