I see the Lions have delisted Rhan Hooper. A nippy talented player who I wouldn't mind seeing in the hoops. Only problem is whether his heads in the right place.

And there's the problem. The kid has too many disciplinary problems for mine.

Besides which, surely we don't need anymore small forwards.

Rookie list someone else.

Ive seen hooper miss a lot of easy goals, ob doesn't like doing the hard yards (last preseason?). Just dont think he suits at all plus it would be to cold and he would go walkabout.
 
You'd take him without blinking if we'd finished 4th for the past 3 years.
He's a game breaker.

We just can't take guys unless they are filling a hole or the whole list will be peeved.
 
He's lazy, undisciplined and unreliable.
We've got better players struggling for a game already, players who act professionally, work hard and have genuine ambition.
 
Never really rated him. I dunno maybe he was good at the start of his career but hey, we just delisted a bloke who was good at the start of his career as well.

Kane Tenace:rolleyes:

I've seen him rip a few games apart. Not often admittedly, but it's something Tenace could never do. The reality is we do not have many genuinely quick players in our side. Just reckon if we could pick him up late in the draft (doubt he'd add much to our costs) he'd be worth a punt.
 
Bloke is rubbish, one good game in every 8 or so (I'm being kind) just does not cut it. Won't do the hard yards and the fact that Brisbane have cut him says a lot given that a small quick forward is something they'd hate to see leave.

Yep! But he has natural talent and if you believe we have the culture to turn him around I reckon he's worth a punt. I've seen him play not just "good" games but game breakers. Those sort of players are hard to come by.

Leigh Matthews has said he's one of the most gifted players on the list. Attitude is the big area of concern.

Bomber also said Tenace definitely had a role in our senior team at the start of this season. Coaches use a public forum to motivate their players - I don't have a problem with it of course, but we gotta read between the lines occasionally.

Which is the important point...we have a fantastic culture, why mess with it?
I'd rather a Drum, who clearly understands and is happy to fall within the club's expectations re effort, commitment etc....than "commitment issues" Hooper. Sorry, no sale.

Yep. And the list would know 2 things regarding Drum. He comes on stuff all salary and we may have issues with the back 6 at some stage.

I have 8 words for you ...

Byrnes, Chapman, Djerrkura, Johnson, S Motlop, Stokes, Varcoe, Varcoe.

Think we're okay on the small forwards front

Not interested in any player that doesn't have the right attitude.

Steve Johnson didn't have the right attitude at the end of 06' and the start of 07' until his team cracked the whip; turned out to be a pretty handy player.

Maybe Hooper just needs some tough love from Cat land to bring out the best in him.
