Hey RudeBoy, thats fantastic news. Hopefully they win and he goes on to find peace and a good healthy life. He's paid his dues, good luck to him.

Cheers

I reckon Liam is worth a go, a chance, he has buggered up a fair bit , I realise that, but if we could put him on say, a two year contract, with very, very strict conditions, give him ONE more chance, for redemption, then ye, I say go for it. ! WE have nothing to lose really, and H is gone, so why not ?

Nothing to lose? How about a spot on the list for somebody who actually deserves it, not to mention the $$$. He had his time and blew it royally. No way knows would we ever go near him.

And before people talk about Krak, at least he did his time and worked his arse off to get back to not only AFL standard, but a better player than he was previously.

Thanks TP. I was talking to Liam just now and he's pretty excited to be playing in a Grand Final with his own mob.

good stuff. Plenty of us never got that at any level. I hope he can enjoy what he has and not get hung up on what might have been.
Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.
