5 more weeks and a final or 2

i thought it was a two year deal?

Maybe but I think getting a gun big forward player should be our main focus. Tmac cant really be relied upon and Jackson has much promise but  is still young and inexperienced.

The club has done a great job importing Lever and May giving us an outstanding defence, now lets create a more potent forward line please.

Nakia is my mates nephew, he's a lovely kid but regrettably just always injured so a no from me. He's just had an awful run and so much talent.

According to the Herald Sun, Cockatoo has been offered a multi year deal by Brisbane and is odds on to end up there.

True, although you could have said the same of Bennell 12 months ago.

Lions will get him cheap and can therefore have a free swing in getting him right.  The only difference to us is that their deal is multi year, while ours was a one year contract for Bennell.

Unlike Bennell, Cockatoo’s body at no stage has stood up to the physical nature of AFL. Harley had a good run at GC for the majority of his time there.
