Im not saying he wont go good... I think a change of enviroment out of a the nuthosue that is Essendon to a quality club like Freo should refresh him into some good footy.
This is coming from a Hawthorn supporter?? Words fail me...[/code]
honestly i think he will do well, they plan to trim him down so he's not so heavy. they'll do a better job playing him off the flanks and deep pockets as opposed to us beefing him up and playing him undersized in a key position which was ridiculous. waste of a decent player.
I think he'll do great for them. It will be the catalyst he needed to restart his career. I am happy with the trade too, but he will probably do pretty well, and we are just going to have to cope with that.
Good luck to him. Reckon he'll give them some real toughness which is something they need. He'll show those Carr brothers what it's about... As long as he doesn't give away too many free kicks in the process.
Both Solly and Taz have a heck of a lot to prove at the Dockers as both came extremely close to losing their careers. As much as i will hate seeing Solly in the purple and green i am kind of thankful that he is gone from our side.
All the pre season pressure will be on the dockers... they are close to having an awesome list and if they fold.... the axe will be out.
Good news is Solly will be back in Red and Black soon enough as he has been allocated to the Perth Demons (Red and Black) if he is dropped from the Dockers.
Being a Demon's supporter I am hoping he does end up being dropped!!!!! Sorry Solly!!!
Solomon is a creampuff. He won't take any of our players out in Round 5, save for perhaps a first year whippett like Jetta - that's about Solomon's level. May struggle to get a game at Freo unless his fitness levels and running ability are greatly improved from those which he displayed with us in 2005 and 2006.
