Irving Mosquito, we hardly knew ye: Essendon bid and Hawthorn passes

[OnTheRocks]

I fear some have put the mozz on him.

 

[Hawks1994]

Surely best name in the AFL now? Absolutely love it

 

[arupist]

I hear he has a trademark move - The Mosquito Coil.

 

[Nathan Detroit]

Is Mosquito fleet?
If he plays back he could be our Mosquito net.

 

[Rhayader]

Soon he may be spreading Dingley fever ...

Hi Guys. Just saw this article in our local paper. Doesnt talk much footy but gives some more info on Irving and thought it'd be of interest.

 

[halfback dasher]

Love his hands , no wonder he can take a grab .

 

[GinniAndTonic]

So is he on our actual list?

Is there footage of him?

 

[arupist]

Is there footage of him?

HBD was talking about his hands, and you ask for FOOTage???

 

[Collins-Langford-Ayres]

So is he on our actual list?

No but we have first dibs.

 

[Manila_Hawk]

So is his name Irving or Irvinh?

If the former, we should probably change the Thread Title....

 

[Mitchell Madness]

Hope he makes it so the club can release a line of kazoos

 

[StalkingHawk]

No but we have first dibs.

Are you sure?

I remember with Tweedie, we had first last dibs...

It is not incorrect.

 

[illnino]

It is not incorrect.

I think it might be Irving.

 

[Gold Member]

I think it might be Irving.

Based on how he spells it on his own Facebook I'd be inclined to disagree.

 

[kazzooka]

I support this idea.

We didn't dib on Tweedle.

 

[Furn2]

Dont we only get him of he goes undrafted ?

We have the same rights on him as the northern clubs have on players coming through their academies: that is, the right to match all draft bids on him with a 20% points discount. Tweedle was in our zone but did not come through our academy (which had not existed during all but his final development year) hence the difference.

From memory, we just tweedled our thumbs.

Well then, let's get around him

I'm from Briag, went to school with Mick's brother Pete. There may be a few on the Hawthorn board who pass like ships in the night.

Briagolong is a ripper little town (in fact it's the centre of the universe), full of great people and is lucky enough to feature incredible natural beauty.

All the best to young Mosquito and good on you Mick.
