[CTHORANGE]

Time to rename the James Harmes 20 & 3 Club to the Jack Billings 30 & 5 Club?

What game was this?

 

[CWaffles]

do we know if st kilda are still paying any part of his contract as part of the trade?

Yeah they are

 

[Scythe94]

What game was this?

Was his 50th game back in 2017, haha. Averaged 23 touches and kicked 23.22 that year. Averaged 26 touches in 2019 too – the talent is there if he can stay in the park. At 28, he's still got a bit to give if we get him healthy.

There you go, Bluelegs. I don't know about the speed though, would've preferred 'soft tissue injuries'.

 

[Scythe94]

Not sure if it's the hair or the terrible goatee, but he looks like he belongs in a 90s music video.

 

[Scythe94]

Anyway, happy to have him on board. Good business and can add something we lack through his kicking skills.

 

[marcus1232]

Fair deal for all parties involved.
You wont ever have to worry about him getting his knees dirty
But when fit will be a very good half forward for you.
He is a cream on top sort of player.
Unfortunately we have been garbage pretty much the whole time since he was drafted.
Looking forward to see how he goes in an elite team
All the best guys

 

[TheBoss]

He will help stop us from doing the long bombs into the forward pocket. He can only kick it 30m.

Astute list management from Lamb to give the supporters a new whipping boy while Melky rehabs his knee.

 

[Crimson Azure]

Why is demon spirit not mentioned among his attributes?

 

[Tulip]

He fits the profile of what people on here have been calling for. Left field, imperfect, cheap and has a very specific skillset. Hopefully he's able to be a solid, Hunter-esque contributor for 50 games, finding targets from half forward.

 

[Johnny Karate]

COULD HE WEAR NUMBER 49?

 

[BrutThough]

Sorry for the intrusion, but you've got a bargain here if he can get some luck with his body.

Handy half fwd/wing. Very good field kick and an underrated mark. Kicking for goal is an issue. Tends to play well at the G so that should suit him too.

The person saying he cant kick 30m is thinking of Gresham. Billings is a long enough kick.

 

[TheOsprey]

Good at football, great at fighting, enjoy.

PS glad he is with you and not Pies or Essendon. Can actually wish him well.

 

[Saintos The ITK]

Bye bye Billo

 

[mrmonkey]

So essentially turning Harmes into Billings, pretty fair trade.
