I said it early last year but it was just an opinion. I’ve got to doubt it was a long term plan to play him back because we had the perfect opportunity to do it this year yet those chose battle. I’d say it’s come up now because we have no other option. He isn’t an afl forward and he is the number one pick. No point delisted without trying everything. I think it’s a moot point because I doubt he plays again.
Yeh, just echoing a VDS post.
Looks similar to McGovern. More likely to be running back with the flight of the ball as a forward. More likely punching from behind as a back. Comment is far from silly.
Yes, supportive, perhaps I didn’t get that across.
Yep, there's a real soyouresayingtheresachance.gif about it.
he's not dead f f s
Mate they're not even the same build. It's like trying to compare McGovern with hawkins. To say they're the same is just flat out wrong.
Thinking same today. Not easy to accept but given the choice between giving up AFL or being told you have cancer, I know which one I would prefer.
Helmet does nothing.
Well there is one cm and 2 kg difference. Reckon that is pretty close. Matter of fact very close. No idea about the ruck but acres has done it for us. Can’t remember him doing it much at all. You have obviously seen McGovern live more than me but I’ve seen them both live more than you. They look very similar in builds and pace. Without putting you down I will go with garry Lyon who mentioned the similarities last year when he suggested paddy might have more hope making it in the backline than the forward line.
Would love Paddy to play again , but what happens if he cops a good whack next time , it looks like if he gets a solid bump now he could get symptoms.
