WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - MICHAEL HIBBERD

[deebug 1,754]

I must say i had doubts about him, but i'm glad to admit i was wrong; he has played some very good footy this year and has helped the back line. So i have to say sorry Hibby.

So good to get a goody (in fact more than one) from the Druggers, after Moorcroft, Heffernen etc

I forgot about those two, you are spot on, we have struck gold with this one.

And we all know how we love to see a #*$$@! off druggie supporter

Hasn't put a foot wrong all year, one of the best recruits I've seen since following the Dees. 

Reminds me of steven icke. Not so much in style, more the fact that icky was a brilliant pick up (and also an excellent defender).

[In Harmes Way 7,823]

He reminds me of Brett Lovett

gun.

[Dappa Dan 2,188]

Looked at him very closely in fantasy the year he was rubbed out. Had him very high indeed, almost a keeper. So when we targeted him I was doing cartwheels. I didn't think he'd be this good though. He's exceeded even my lofty expectations.

The only downside... I wish he was 23.

glad im not the only one. very similar nuggety body shape and just a pure manic half back flanker. has been exceptional

[Stingray 157]

“The experienced guys coming in have been really, really pivotal. Michael Hibberd has been unbelievable. He’s just been extraordinary..."

gotta love Paul Roos!

[Deestroy All 14,266]

Imagine if the Bombers still had him. Horrible thought. 

They'd have won a bunch more games with him in this form  

He's exactly what they need IMO.

He really is a superstar, holy [censored].

Thanks Essendrug.

Both Hibberd and Melksham had great games yesterday.

Hibberd was sensational. Robbie Grey and Wingard hardly got a possession. He's fast, heavy and he closes space so well, then his tackles stick.

Port were badly outcoached letting Hibberd roam free like that. We used him so effectively coming out of defence. I think he'll get tagged more often.

[Nasher 33,617]

Doesn't tackle much, but when he does, they hurt. That tackle 15 metres out after the unluckiest bounce ever was an absolute ripper.

I'm still in disbelief at such a good player landing on our lap. He hasn't had a poor game since joining.

[Rodney (Balls) Grinter 10,878]

I don't actually notice him that much in games compared to other players like Viney and Jetta, but he just goes about his game in a no nonsense, business like manner and gets the job done, week in, week out.

His disposal stands out like dogs balls it's that good.

[Uncle Fester 2,848]

And we got a guy that should probably be AA this year for what now?

Michael hibberd - 2017 best and fairest and recruit or the year leading Melbourne to its finals appearance in a decade.

[John Crow Batty 8,879]

A persistent  problem for the last decade has been poor kicking skills. Hibberd and Melksham  have made a huge difference in improving that.

Hibberd is now in Lloyds rolling All Australian team on the SUnday Footy show. Our only player in the team.

And of course the biased clown has 4 Essendrug players in there  - including Fantasia, ahead of Jeff Garlett - what a joke.

This is also off the back of his article on Saturday about how the Bombers 'can beat anyone'.  Turn it up, Velvet.

Forgot to mention that not only did he add Fantasia in ahead of Garlett, but he dropped Betts for him too.

No bias at all of course.
