    Obviously not, but his name has been mentioned, and it's worth a shot i reckon. If it fails, it fails, but we should try and talk to him.

      We could, but it's still not going to change the fact that we're stuck with Blind Barry, and Fev ain't leavin' the blues.
      Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.

        Still a lot better than the Saints taking Gardiner, that hack couldn't even get a game.

            If he'd stayed at the Hawks he'd be playing finals next week.
            That's the sad bit eh!
            You have to remember that he hasn't played finals footy for a long time - and Buddy got the dawks over the line today. Buddy wants a granny.

              I hope you're right on the money, like Hall is with his inflated contract.

                I've been trying to believe that all year but tonight I had finally had enough. Why did Roos change our winning (blitzing) team of last week? I wouldnt care if Hall retired.

                  For $2M (part of which is MY money) I'd want his accuracy to be a little higher than that.
                  I'd probably be happier if it were at least 87 - 92.65%.
                  Lockett's career accuracy was 70%.

                      How can you compare Lockett to Blind Barry? You're really clutching at straws now.
                      How many years did Lockett play compared to Blind Barry? In how many seasons did Lockett kick over 80 goals??
                      Not only did Lockett play in a different era of footy, but he's the greatest goal kicker of all time. He is a freak of nature. No-one is going to ever get near that record, least of all Blind Barry. Blind Barry is not good enough to scrape the dirt of Lockett's spikes.

                      PLUS he was paid a lot less.

                        That's exactly my point. Hall's accuracy last year is only just behind Lockett's so obviously had a pretty good year in 2006 with his accuracy.

                          Lockett's CAREER accuracy was 70%.
                          When Blind Barry has finished his career - we'll come back to this and compare the percentages. Unfortunately, Blind Barry (in the next couple of years if he continues) is going to drop his career percentage well below 40.

                              Yes, but you still dont get the point. LAST YEAR, which is the one that was being talked about, his accuracy was good at 67%. YOU suggested it was too low and needed to be around 90%. That's simply NOT realistic!!

                                You're right - that is NOT realistic for blind barry.
