Traded #1: Michael Hibberd - Premiership Player!! Onya Piggy 🐽

[yaco55]

It depends if Fisher plays that loose third man up role - Much better bet - Otherwise it's about the same.

Ta. Depends on what happens with the Wilkes/Lee/Kosi situation too I guess, with regard to what Fisher's role is...

At this stage i've got Fisher, but wondering whether to trade for Hibberd, who seemed to have a good NAB cup campaign. I didn't watch any of your matches though, so no idea if it'll translate to the season proper.

Cheers.

Their lack of talls down back means Fisher won't be as free to play the rebounding defender role as much, that will fall to Gwilt. Since he'll be standing an opponent, expect more spoils and less marks from opposition kicks.

I've given huge praise to Hibberd in the DT/SC thread, take a squiz at that if you want some selling points.

Thanks Dona!

This guy is becoming my favourite player quick style!

PIGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG

 

[eth-dog]

Composed under pressure

 

[Knight Ryders]

Love this man. Went up too many times in the first quarter leaving his smaller opponent to collect the crumb but learnt quickly after that. He's going to have a game at some stage this year where goes 30 touches, 3 screamers and a couple of snags

 

[Beerfish]

Hibberdite.

The pig is good.

Clams.

 

[Blind Turn]

Gets involved... often.

 

[VelvetSledge]

Hibberdite.

The pig is good.

Clams.

Keep em shut.

 

[Slattery_20]

Clear BOG for mine.

 

[Bomber4ever]

How good was his composure tonight. A number of times had the option of rushing it but never considered it and had the vision to pick out a target up the field.

 

[yaco55]

Hibberd plays taller than his height, and cuts an imposing figure on the ground.

I still think he could be AA in 2 or 3 years.

 

[JDavey]

No wonder we are in injecting other players with him!

Yep. Pig is right up there for me.

 

[Lord Nicholson]

Love the Pig.

The #1 suits him. He looks and plays like someone from a bygone era.

From a back pocket!

The pre season trip seems to have done him wonders. His repeated sprints out of defence were so important last night.

 

[gO_bOmBeRz]

Not only is he becoming one of my favorite players, but I think he's also becoming one of the most important players we have in our side.

His ability to nullify the small forwards. which have always given us trouble, is great.
Love watching him play, so courageous and skillful.

Think you'll find he plays pocket

 

[Ben the Gooner]

Because there's such a clear distinction.

 

[HULK HOGAN]

Clear BOG for mine.

Yep.

 

[Nifft]

I really like the Pig, played an awesome game, just behind Carlisle I thought for BOG.

He might want to watch the walking over the boundary line. Now it's been pointed out a couple of times I think the umps could watch him for that.

As Yaco said I think he'll be AA at some stage.
