Hall - Great trade bait!

[Sanecow]

But we have a no dickheads policy

*cough*Spida*cough*

His skill dropped the minute that they changed the rules. As I've said so many times he can't mark overhead (and I've been criticised for saying that) - he marks like a seal. His strength was his strength - he pushed players off - can't do that any more, hence cannot take contested marks.

But that rule only came into play this year.

This is the last year of his $2M contract. From memory it was a three year contract when he signed. He kicking has been @@@@ for approximately TWO seasons.

You don't think we'd be better with Fev instead of Hall?

We probably would be, but what if Fev traded and he turned out to be very crap - no matter which team he goes to. He looks good at Carlton because the rest of their team is so @@@@.
Besides, Fev gets on my last nerve. He irks me something bad.
I really don't think he'd fit into Sydney's culture.
IMHO - he's a bit vain.

ok ok - the big Q - from wet toast... is that fair

He played well last year (except for the GF), and was kicking at 67% accuracy.

Spida's not a dickhead. He's done a fine job for us this year (albeit not tonight - but neither did Jolly).

Seriously?
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%.

Fev is a better overhead mark than Hall, he's now more accurate than Hall, he's more pro-active than Hall and he's younger than Hall.

He is a dickhead from way back and we actually did better without him.

He can kick further too..

I've always liked Spida - he is a top class ruckman. He really shouldn't have gone to the dawks.
He's still good for us. He can help to train some youngins.

I'm not sure we should all be on Spida's back in regards to our disappointing season. I think he's pretty much done what we expected at the start of the year, and let's not forget he's 34. In hindsight it wasn't the best decision to take him.

What are our chances of getting Fev?
Are the blues giving him away??

We could go on forever.

Top class ruckmen don't make newbie mistakes.

If he'd stayed at the Hawks he'd be playing finals next week.
