The club knew about his raging alcoholism but felt it was worth the risk given his athletic profile and potential. Just hope he can lay off the schnapps in the lead up to gameday.
So simms has an alcohol problem and lalour is addicted to McDonald’s ….. we have our work cut out to get them right but we can do it
 
It's probably as good as it'll ever get tbh better than his junior days when he used to play with a hipflask tucked into his sock.
Vodka with red cordial was his drink back them days
his junior coach at under 15's was on record about not allowing outside drinks onto the ground but could never prove there was grog in the flasks
 
Just regarding Sims and people commenting about if he is actually tall enough to be our future Ruckman

Tom DeKoning is a player that resembles Sims playing style as a Ruckman
TDK was 200cm tall when drafted and is currently listed on the CFC website as 201 cm
I dont think you would find 1 carlton supporter that doesnt see him as their #1 Ruckman

Like Barnzy im worried about this pick. Was he the best tall let alone player left on the board is a good question atm.

Comparisons to luke Jackson are a bit off the mark imo. Jackson was and remains a real agile athletic beast
with good skills. Don't really see that with this lad.
Then you need to look a bit harder
