Hi all. I come in peace! Just a fact check question:
Did George Hewett ever tag/run with Pendles and if so how did he go?
Mr hanks in advance.

Yeah, but Melbourne are going to lose this week against Brisbane, finish 6th and then lose to Richmond in the elimination final.I'm a bit concerned that if we do win the flag, it'll impact our draft position. Won't somebody please think of the kids!
So Melbourne's first pick, which we own, will go from an expected 18 to 13.
That'll do.

Most likely yes, he would have at times.
I can’t recall specific instances on Pendlebury, but he was a reasonably effective tagger on most - pretty rare that his tag would get badly broken.

I recall some games where George took the honours against Pendles, and others where Pendles took the honours against George. I can't remember specific games but I do remember them both specifically having wins in their match-ups over the years.
As will happen with two brilliant mids.
If you were Voss would you allow Hewett free reign or ask him to lock down Pendles?
I'd put him on daicos. Pendles is good but diacos is their prime mover in terms of metres. Hewett played some great games locking down in half back, Johansison comes to mind as one of his best in that role. But I'm sure he could tag a midfielder very effectively.
I thought he was still out with the back is he coming back in?
Been named. Our track watchers said he trained and looked ‘normal’. Who knows really.
He’s a much better player than I realised. Was he always whistle clean below his knees? He’s unfortunately slower (I think) than I recall. Are these your memories?

Always been clean and tidy player who males the correct decision. Speed wise... maybe a touch slower
Apart from the obvious “you’re an idiot Carlton supporter” why have I not noticed him as anything other than a tagger?
Btw who wins your best and fairest? Got a bet with a mate.
Because that's all he was really used for when JPK was playing. When Kennedy was out for an extended period he took the lead inside role and excelled. Then moved to HBF because they wanted to get games into younger more explosive players
No-one was happy to see him go but my belief was that we were able to keep either him or Dawson and chose Dawson. Then Dawson screwed us but by then everything was in place for the move to you guys so we had to swallow it. It still rankles big time with us.
He's a good player and a good guy. You did well and hopefully he will too. Not TOO well of course!
Perfect!!!! That’s my bet.
Ok thanks. I’ll stop detailing your thread now. All the best.
No problem with a positive contribution. Cheers.
God you're transparent!

Dear all, please point out the irony of fans complaining that the SCG is too small - which the Magpie fans are still doing - and saying there is not advantage to home teams playing on the G.

Or he thought the back problems would come back. They often do. Back problems are hard to get rid of
