Small Forward hunt

[desmondo]

So if we are serious about going after a 'small' forward this off-season (I mean rumour has it we are even looking at Gibbons from the scum, who I would regard as a list clogger). I`m wondering if we should take look at Bobby Hill as he apparently wants back to Vic. I reckon he would add some spark to our forward line. Thoughts?. OK just noticed, we are looking. Go get him Adrian.

Bobby Hill?

Back in Red and Black?

Yes,please!

[BenDoolan]

Yep, sounds good to me!

I hear Jake Melksham is looking for a new home too

Hill has nominated us

Beauty!

Another “Windy Hill” amongst us

Comes with his own wind sock too….


Hill is a decent get but honestly, anything more than a future second rounder (likely to be in the 30s) would be overs.

I suspect McCartney will use North to up the ante on Essendon. The man despises Jackets Dodoro.

It will be interesting to see how this plays out. He was pick #24 in the 2018 draft. Played 30 games for 25 goals. Nothing there to indicate it warrants anything more than what you suggest.

GWS needs to make space for a really overpriced offer to Lobb (700K a year ... really???)

If they cant get rid of their former captain, they will take anything they can get to make space

Or Won’t in the end.

Lobb’s Ok,but hasn’t really stamped his Mark on the Game has he?!

GWS playing hardball for Hill

Probably asking for 2 first round picks... arseholes given the armchair ride they have been gifted

Meanwhile Collingwood sniffing around

Looks like Bobby’s staying put.

Oh well,when his contract is up,he’ll look to move again.

[Windy Hille]

Thus would be a great replacement for Mozzie. Hopefully a deal can be done, but not for a first rounder.

Frankly, I'm not interested in Hill - unless he comes cheap (future 3rd or less).
He's "enigmatic" at best - meaning he has talent and full of possibility but rarely delivers it.
He's like Fantasia in his latter days at Essendon - someone that we thought could be a game changer but rarely lived up to it.

The small forward we need is someone with more size, with at least 2 of the following abilities - can get their own ball, be a leading option, be a crumber, with good defensive skills.

Can't be bothered going through AFL lists to find someone like that, but someone that comes to mind is Fritch from Melbourne.
He is very uncomplicated, no particular outstanding skills, but finds the right spots regularly. Honestly, he plays HFF, FP by the textbook. How hard can it be to find someone able to do that, to play that role????

[s'dreams]

Look at the VFL, SANFL or WAFL for a young small goalkicking forward.

Whoops - we cannot

[desmondo]

Cya next year Bobby.

[grassy1]

Cya next year Bobby.

Someone will if his contract expires next year.

Whichever Victorian Club gets hold of him,he’ll be happy with that.

Not interested in going back home to WA apparently.Girlfriend from Victoria is she?

Appealed to go to Vic on compassionate grounds and was in tears apparently when the deal fell through. Shame.

[grassy1]

A Dam Shame.

Saw his Manager on Fox Footy at the TAB,but couldn’t hear him,as the sound was turned down unfortunately.

Races get first dibs on sound usually.
