No need to rush Tom Hickey back!

Post: # 1474862Post Saint wagga »

Just read the 'in the mix' wrap on the we page and tom hickey was mooted a possible in. I don't know about others, but if there's a lesson to be learned from the last 2 years, it's ' do not rush players back from long term injury'...I know you can't lay a blanket rule for these things, but geez, our bad luck with injury this year has me spooked!! Would love to see the big guy to play 3-4 solid games of VFL before we see him back at the highest level...it's not like he's a seasoned veteran and there's still plenty of rounds left for him to be eased back via the vfl and play a good 4-6 weeks of senior footy to finish the year on a good note!! IMO.

I know....

Because he's s***.... And wouldn't be any stronger than an Auskicker

He only got outplayed by a VFL listed Ruckman on the weekend

2-3 weeks in vfl then give longer a chop out, he's 21 and will have played ~10 in a row by then

Come on Bigmart, support the boys for god's sake! Just a little positivity, no wonder people have it in for you!! Though if you're joking then that's fine. Sarcasm is hard to detect through written form.. and to be fair given your posting history it appears more likely to be legitimate :P
