Player Watch Harry Perryman

[Chronz]

Welcome Harry. Looking forward to see how he works with the rest of our mids. Can also be used up back or really anywhere if we need to change some magnets around due to injuries.

 

[regpies]

So, who that watches GWS closely, is able to tell us where and how he’s going to improve us. I take it he’s an A grade player?

If he is actually on the 6yrs at 900k he better be an A grader

He won't be on 900k for 6 years.

Is he next gen WHE?

I'm just basing that on reports that are out there

Allegedly we've promised him more midfield time as GWS had pigeon holed him into half back flank

I don't think that necessarily means there's no chance of him being used as a utility.

In the end it's a pointless argument based on nothing more than a comparison opinion. He'll play wherever he plays. We have a bunch of 30 plus year olds which we need to start looking to replace. Right now, I view him as taking over in that role when it all shakes out.

If that isn't the case, it really doesn't matter

I doubt we've promised him anything. Be rare that any club would make any promises of this nature. More likely he's been told we see him spending time in our midfield.

More next gen Sidebottom.

How good does he look in the black and white! I've gone to the liberty of adding a gold AFL emblem in preparation for our imminent 2025 AFL Premiership.

 

[VinnieB]

So have basically given him same contract we gave Treloar eh sure hope they have their shit sorted unlike before

You mean a contract over 6 years ago when the salary cap was about 40-50% lower???

Exactly, people thinking he'll be a full-time mid are kidding themselves. He'll play midfield minutes and playing off the wing but we've brought him over to shore up our flimsy backline.

I actually think we see him more as a midfielder. Our backline issues were largely due to our midfield issues. Fix those and our defence is fine other than a Murphy replacement, and Perryman isn't that. I just don't think we'd make promises we can't commit to. He's a utility and there will be times when he's best used elsewhere.

or 2am in the morning.

That’s gone through to the keeper. Can I ask what the reference is?

I’m so glad that the don’t pay the Perryman joke isn’t getting old

THey'll last until April at which point half the board will shift to don't play the Perryman jokes and the other half will abuse them for it. This thread is going to be a doozy.

I don’t know the song, although I know Chris De Burgh, and as a result of this thread I’m making a point of never listening to it.

2am is the morning.
Why say 2am "in the morning." It can't be 2am in the evening or afternoon.

I don’t know neither the song nor Mr De Burgh

I'd argue 2am is at night - and never in the morning.

Well with all due respect argumentative kind sir, let me prove you wrong.

Witness the following conversation.

Dave: Hey John I'm going fishing tomorrow. Do you want to join me.
John: Sounds good. What time.
Dave: I'm thinking about hitting the road at about 2 o'clock.
John: 2 in the morning or 2 in the afternoon.
Dave: 2 in the morning.

Now who would have asked "2 in the night" in this situation.
Answer: No one.

You're wrong.
