If it smells this bad, somebody needs to bury it.

You may as well jump in!

A heart and soul player. Thanks JFN for giving 100% whilst in the black and white. Best wishes for your move to the Coast.

He has been much better since 22.

because he's played further up the ground and isn't asked to play 1 v 1 that much anymore.

Disagree. He breaks tackles now and this tackle strength has gone up. He clearly worked hard in the gym. 3 years ago I wanted him out because his body wasn't strong enough. It's not the case anymore imo.

This ended up being the deal:



Assume Pies finish near the top and Port near the middle:

* Pick 13 for Port's first is about even

* Pick 29 for Collingwood's first is a slight upgrade

* Pick 50 for Pick 39 is a slight upgrade


So it's effectively Noble for Lukosius and Atkins, two blokes they didn't want to keep, and a slight pick upgrade

And Noble IMHO has been one of their best players all season.

Reckon this is low key one of the best "wins" so far in the last trade period.

a lot of ball goes through him that I'm sure they'd prefer go through Rioli ... Noble is defensively strong, but his kicking isn't great

Noble as expected has been really good.
