He's a terrific mark and is a pretty good size for a mid size forward at 190 cms. He probably needs to work on his two way running, but he could be valuable. He's been at a shit club, so I reckon he could thrive under Bucks and the professional environment at our club.

He'd need to lower his asking price you'd hope for us to have any interest.
He's a free agent , correct?
He's mad. He's bad. He's MaynHARD!

So we'd have Cloke, Elliott, Fas and Howe competing for the high ball?
And still nobody reliable at winning the crumbs...

Not convinced about him. Know he can take a mark but not sure that justifies the sort of $$$s being bandied about.

I guess he has the tattoos!! Isn't a free agent (debuted 2011) and hopefully we wouldn't turn him into a half back flanker like Roosy has done! We have 13 already.

You're probably right. Id rather take a gamble on someone like Bennell.

Incorrect.
Drafted 2010, debuted 2011. Would need to trade...

How many goals does he kick when playing forward?
Roos has hidden him down back a bit, why is that? Same as Jack Watts?

One trick Pony but he does that trick a lot. There should be an offence taking so many great grabs.

i'd hazard a guess he had no defensive side to him.
Purveyor of sanctimonious twaddle.

We would probably replace his X FACTOR with "2 way running"

Not likely to push Blair out of the side as a lead up half forward then?
