Tim may be but not as a ruckman. You need to have even a tiny bit of aggression as a ruck.
Stanley is still a dud. I’ll give you Hickey. Cox & mcinerney were second or third stringers not like English who is supposed to be our 1st.
Assuming Mcinerney only rucked cos Reid(who smashed English last time) went off.

You’d think if you were going to go on these big rants you’d know who plays for who McInerney played Stanley and Hickey played Cox/Cameron all of them are mediocre at best

 

[bobs head soup]

When was he going to be delisted?

Well when he was 24 he'd played 10 career games so he certainly was far from entrenched.

 

[The Inbetweener]

Based on a bit of info I got today, I think it’s entirely possible that while he certainly had some issues with the club in 2020 (and the fact Essendon virtually offered to double his salary), this time around in addition to the big pay day, he’s moving as he legitimately sees himself in QLD with his partner long term and post footy.

Completely used and led on Port then. I like it.

Seems so. My info a few months back was that Port’s offer was higher than ours, so at a minimum it got us to up our offer.

Firstly who is ranting?
Secondly I assumed it was swans Justin mcinerney because no one delists 24yo rucks, as they almost always traded. Oscar mcinerney was never going to be delisted.
Cox Cameron Stanley may be mediocre but they would still beat English especially in finals. Stanley beat English in r12 already.

 

[Chops]

How many times does this point need to be made. English will be close to best player in league in 3 yrs…his physical peak is still 4 yrs away..when he is 28 he will make mince meat of the 22-25 yr old rucks…I reckon he assumes number 1 ruckman in the comp next yr. Bookmark it.

Haha. He was beaten by a younger ruck last start.

Justin McInerney is 6”2’ how are you confusing a half back flanker with a ruckman? Stanley nullified English like he did Gawn and Grundy when he played them too he’s actually good at it. Notice you didn’t say Hickey because English tore him up

 

[Chops]

Again it’s rare for clubs to delist rucks at 24yo. Most other clubs give them another go.

He said early days on his podcast that he’ll likely head to QLD after he retires, so looks like things have aligned a bit earlier.

Again Because no one would think Oscar mcinerney was going to be delisted at 24 and he is hardly mediocre.
Stanley beat not nullified English early and the game was effectively over.

English tore up hickey? Hickey play less than half a game vs Sydney when English got 3 votes.

Less than half a game? He was subbed out in the 3rd quarter.

English had a goal 20 disposals and 17 hitouts

Stanley 0 goals 16 disposals 23 hitouts who is that beaten?

 

[House_of_Dahl]

Was it reported Tomlinson met with us today?

Re Hickey Look at the stats properly. Game is approx 120 min played less than 60. Was injured early.

Again re Stanley when the game was to be won Stanley was on top. English was better in the second half but it was effectively under control.

Are you English’s dad?

Please no

So because Hickey isn’t as high a TOG player that’s English fault? Also game under control? We got within a goal

you said he tore him up not me. How do you beat someone that’s not playing?

6 goals down against Geelong before we start, almost game over.

God I hope not

 

[dergert]

How come norf are a destination club all of a sudden? Their midfield is going to be nuts soon

 

[hatescaptcha]

Melbourne delisted Fraser Rosman, 194cm wingman. Strange as he’s only 20, has elite speed/endurance.

I WAS having a good day!

 

[The Inbetweener]

Tomlinson would make O’Brien look like a good pick up

 

[Dav1d]

29, done an ACL
Why aren’t you guys excited
Tomlinson might just be our best back up ruck next season

 

[Anja_Nees]

Caro just said she’d heard Dunkley’s view (which he shared with the clubs he spoke to) was there was a group on our list that was serious about winning it and a group that wasn’t.

The thing is, he’s a premiership player who played in a second grand final a year ago after knocking out the very two sides he spoke to, both of which have dubious finals records. What exactly does he think he’ll find there that’s different?

If he was weighing Geelong and Sydney I’d get his point.

 

[dergert]

It's never easy is it?
