Kicked a handy 2 goals in ….. I’m not sure, but somewhere near round 6 this year I think?
Might have cost someone a finals appearance?

I am available for a contract North - have as much to offer as Jack and I'll probably have more availability
I remember when Petrie came over to us at age 33, I thought he was well cooked and just looking for a pay day. But his 2017 I think was very important for what lead to a premiership the next year, he was a true professional and gave serious effort every game and became and is a favourite of Eagles fans for that one season.
Could see Darling being similar for North. He's never injured, trains really well, will keep a defender honest.

I think it's fishy because even north couldn't be so stupid as to want to employ Darling let alone give anything up but after reading your post I'm starting to doubt myself.

Gunston was completely cooked but the influence he has had on Dear has been enormous. He's actively pointing at Dear where to lead.
If Jack can come in and show Duursma + any young KPF North drafts (oh god do I hope they finally draft a KPF) the ropes and elevate him from kicking 10 goals a season to 20 goals a season it will be well worth it.

I think you’ll find plenty of North people who would have preferred to keep Dish and Boomer at the end of 2016 for another year and despatch Brad Scott elsewhere instead

Also not having to play spuds like Sellers, Teakle or Pink is a massive bonus for North.
Seriously it's criminal that you partner a Ferrari like Larkey with a home made wooden go kart like the spuds above.

I was pulling the piss mate. I agree with you Darling is a potato.
PS: Rolystone is a lovely area of Perth.
Oh dear. I'm a little embarrassed. Apologies.
He thinks he could get 3 years at North? Rawlings and Clarko needs to be stripped of all their list management responsibilities if they’re signing off on this nonsense.
North need to draft and a develop a young KPF, thats generally 3-4 years.
Why couldnt Darling play for 2-3 of those years?
Hes hardly cooked, he was BOG only a few weeks ago
Duursma isn't a key fwd, darling isn't a smart fwd
Did you watch the video? There’s not a single thing he said that screams “I want to go teach the kids”. It’s purely about his career and however long he can extend it.
Embarrassing.
Wrong. His work rates huge and he's is very good at opening up space for other fwds.

There is a 1cm difference between Zane and Jack.
Jack has kicked 500 goals and has almost 300 games of experience. I'm sure he can pass on some tricks.
He answered what was asked of him, WTF more do you want?
Cringe.

On what observations of Jack’s 298 games do you make that statement?

That’s a momentally silly take he’s coexisted as a second key forward his whole career except one or two years as a secondary target and a really good foil for JK and more recently Oscar and waterman.
If you think Darling isnt a smart forward then its surprising JK kicked that many goals tbh.
JK would have to have been the best KPF of the past 30 years by a fair margin to do it while having his #2 be an idiot out on the field.

JD just appears to be wildly unmotivated a lot of the time. A change of scenery and a new voice like Clarksons might be just the things to get him rolling again. He may turn out to be a gun recruit and a win win win for all involved
Fingers crossed

So we lose a player, continue to pay part of his salary, all to move up one single draft spot in the 70’s?
Do you do anything other than troll in these threads?

Doesn't make him a smart footballer. He's strong and good overhead with a quick few steps.
