You can actually teach em how to tackle, as opposed to kick(as some seem to think you can)

Maybe we're on the right track :twisted:

Though i'd be more concerned with his decision making.

Wasn't he one of their more damaging players in the 2011 Grand Final against us?

I'm not his biggest fan but if we do get him he offers some pace and skill in the side that we're currently missing a little.

Could be worse.

Hawthorn smashed Sydney in the GF. Physicality is what is required in our game. Varcoe has great skills but struggles under pressure. Seriously he would struggle in an U15's game.

Haven't seen much of him in recent years. He looked like a great prospect as a kid playing his first couple of years; I really liked his ability to run and get into the right place. Has he lost that? Has he not come on as expected? Is he one of those talents who never quite deliver? Or is he just not fitting in down at the Cattery and needs a fresh start?

If we're going to bring another NQR outside runner into the squad I'd prefer we looked at O'Rourke than Varcoe, relative cost is the only issue.

we could do a lot of worse. that tackle on pendlebury looked solid enough.

can play link man or plonk him next to the other trav. elliott and varcoe as crumbing forwards.

His form line is getting worse by the year.

If he was a stock you'd be selling him before the arse falls out all together.
He's mad. He's bad. He's MaynHARD!
