Or Stanley, or Hickey.

Mobile big blokes who can contribute around the ground, including kicking goals, don’t grow on trees.

We’ve badly undervalued that type of player IMO

Stanley? FFS.

This is his ELEVENTH season in AFL. Gifted, but very inconsistent. His value to Geelong is far more than it was to StKilda. Had more opportunities than any other Saint I can name to stamp his authority on our club but never did.

We have Marshall and he will be better than both of them. Plus Hickey.

What's done is done anyway. Stanley.....please no.

At least Stanley's best is OK even if you rarely see it.
Don't know what anyone saw in either Longer or Hickey (apart from height).
Stanley and Marshall would be great right now, both offering height and mobility.

Massive pressure on Stanley at the time to be the next reiwoldt. No such pressure at Geelong.

Acres is the new prototype.

This is why we went so big for Lycett.

Should have got preuss - him as ruck Marshall as forward/ ruck — Billy and pierce both gone or one held on list for emergency purposes

Or in simple hindsight should have kept Stanly - I was upset to see him go and hoped Goddard would make it a good decision - he didn’t

Pruess is rubbish. Big and immobile. Kicked a couple on Saturday I know but does stuff all. I predict he'll get found out. Has no mobility whatsoever.
