Sam is a spud but we needed someone to cover the loss of Daniher. He just happens to fill a specific role we need and will cost nothing but a measly salary. A key forward who can pinch hit in the ruck if need be.

That's funny because I first heard the Day rumour from a Brisbane journo.

REALLY I first heard it by JZ Clark in the heard sun

REALLY I first heard it by JZ Clark in the heard sun

I only say it because it seems unlikely that a rumoured club signing would be reported by multiple journos with multiple different media outlets, and then it didn't end up actually happening...

Would love it, but not sure the retirement travel and relax is equivalent to a preseason. And the bigger you are the harder it is to get back to peak fitness.

Day will be better than Hipwood

Hipwood is extremely out of form and I hope the last few years are just a slight speed bump. I’d have Hipwood as our 6th ranked forward. So not a huge call by any means.

As far as importance goes, I would have him much higher especially next year without Joe.

Hipwood Kicked 47 goals last season and 35 with OP this year that's not bad for someone who isn't the main target inside 50

YOU know that Day is 33 next year yeah? He's never taken a season by storm those expecting him to realistically take the heat of Hipwood it's not going to happen

FMD, in an age where life expectancy in Australia at birth is 81.1 years for males, you think that someone at 33 is fo**ing old. Let me guess you're four years of age and anyone over 12 is too old.

Day will be better than Hipwood

In his next life ?

Compare the pair:
------ Club Age Debut Games Goals Finals Premierships
Day Suns 32 2011 155 117. 0. 0.
Eric Lions 27 2016 177 262. 14. 1.

Guess a lot of people also bagged Joe throughout his entire career.

And played with an injury through the last part of the season .
Sick of the Hippy bashing , it’s horrible .

Of all the second tall forwards in the comp basically only Hawkins has outperformed him over the last few years. Will be interesting how he goes as the number one guy, but on total numbers he has done better than most people think
