I hope he goes around one more year in that playing assistant role, maybe plays 5/8 games as depth 

[Cards13 9,117]

Well done Dees and Hibbo!! 

[Young Blood 2,642]

I thought he was very solid this year. His physicality in the back half is so important.

If my brother passed away suddenly I would just fall apart. Amazing he was able to perform the way he did with everything else on top of that.

[Adam The God 30,744]

Well done, Hibbo. A one year deal is a sensible move. I reckon he's got one more quality season left and then we'll have to reassess. 

[Pickett2Jackson 3,904]

He had a nice bounce back to form this season after a terrible 2019. 

Was a phenomenal effort considering his personal tragedy earlier in the year.  Well done Hibbo.

Pleased about this, a real Demon warrior!

I hope we can get 100 games out of Hibbo. Very courageous and gives his all every game. I wish we had a few more like him. 

[FritschyBusiness 1,478]

one of my favs, always has a red hot crack

[nosoupforme 3,085]

Hibberd can hold his own  I don't doubt his ability however one year deal is a good one and he can easily play a further year after that. Tough as nails 

[deebug 1,754]

Congrats Hibbo?

[Sir Why You Little 37,458]

Cool ? 

[layzie 34,528]

Great move, happy with that 

[Timothy Reddan-A'Blew 5,690]

Michael's is one of those stories, isn't it.

Nice then.

[Diamond_Jim 12,773]

One year deal makes sense.

I suppose we will have to trade for a replacement at the end of 2021 as I can't see anyone pushing for his spot.

[Demon3 2,541]

Sensible contract for a player nearing teh end but think he has another good year in him.

He really did have a solid year and that's what you want from him, rarely beaten, attacking and urgent. great backman assets.

Absolutely P2J Hibbo nearly back to his best This season even his kicking.

Takes a strong person to do what he did and was consistently near our best 5 each game. Deserves to start in Round1 next year opposite Riv on the HB flanks. 

[dl4e 5,851]

Excellent. And a sensible time frame as well.

[Pates 9,697]

Given the tragedy surrounding his year and then having to go into the hub environment he did a remarkable job.

He also showed the value in dropping a senior player to a younger player (Rivers) a crack, Hibbo forced his way back in and looked so much more like his old self. 

[Rodney (Balls) Grinter 11,064]

Very glad to see Hibbo given this contract extension.

Certainly does the red and blue number 14 guernsey proud every time he takes the field.

[Grr-owl 1,258]

Love Hibbo. Love calling his name when he goes near it. Champ.

[BDA 23,048]

Well worth his spot for next year.

Would love to see him take young Rivers under his wing. Impart some of his considerable knowledge and footy IQ and ensure the kid doesn’t experience any second season syndrome.
