Have faith in 25.
That kid will be a ripper.
Many wouldn't have seen much of him.
A big boy with a big mark and a good kick for goal.
I agree. Invest the time here instead of chasing around for a Gunston.
I may be alone, but I'm glad we didn't get the opportunity to pay the overs on Butcher and offer a 3 gamer, 5 years.

Yeah i had a look at Kreuzer he still had a bit of a body as a junior, not like the size today but he wasn't that thin like a Tony Notte.Many of these kids come into the AFL thin as sticks, ScarfacePacino. It can take several years to work on a KPF's body to get him into the monster category. We have the training facilities to aide that process. You simply have to take a look at Matthew Kreuzer before and after knee injury photos to see what is possible in building a body up.
Sam Reid could be a go, when he builds his top body strength, could be a Lockett type, his legs look cement type already like a Silvagni and not too much of a match stick. He would be even better with a beard and Mo like his father.

I go for him as his father Bruce played for Carlton. I remember Bruce Reid was a descent hard working footballer and brother John. I was disappointing at the time, that We decided to not recruit the super star Jim Sewell who crossed to the Bulldogs. Mark Maclure was used as Centre Half Forward, so Jim would probably replace him if we did and Mark was a legend. Jim was also capable of playing CHB, he was a terrific footballer.
Jim was set to go to Carlton I remember, he was tied to us and even went on an overseas trip with the players, something happen with Ian Harris And Alex Jesaulenko. He was cleared back and obtain a clearance from Carlton. Footscray swapped Bruce Reid for him. I have to check this up. I should see Jim, he would know more about it. Jim would have been a great player at Carlton, I reckon we would have sneaked another flag, at that decade with him.I seem to remember we did have interest in Sewell but the Bulldogs beat us to him.
And yet somehow, he knows dick about the current team.Hey ScarfacePacino, how long have you been a Blues supporter? Sometimes what you post makes you appear to be a younger fan. I'm a little shocked to know of your insight into the club's history.
I know plenty about the current team, and I can name several players that will not be part of our next premiership. I won't list the players, but people will see who they are. These players who can't mark a football with little pressure, choke with pressure or Can't kick or chase and put their body on the line. Those who have nothing special that can't be tapped into, a very Good Coach will drop these type of players and make changes to the list.And yet somehow, he knows dick about the current team.

There was interest in Butcher Harks, but not as much as was publicized and certainly not 5 years.

How exactly does that play out?
Since the old days, but not before Alex Bongo Lang or Bill Lacey.Hey ScarfacePacino, how long have you been a Blues supporter? Sometimes what you post makes you appear to be a younger fan. I'm a little shocked to know of your insight into the club's history.
I thought he signed already. I wish he didn't, would benefit us so much, having a key forward ready for 2012, and not in 2014 or 2015.It just kept getting mentioned on SEN that a high profile club has offered Butcher a 5 year contract.
SEN? I know what I did wrong.![]()
