really? ok well his reel is bloody promising, and yes noble will take a lot of beating.

Oh Doris - waaaaaaay too much logic in that for it to come to fruition at our numpty team selection / thursday pie nights...
from what i just saw, yeah, i can think of 2 players id leave out for him! just to start!!

You cant fix stupid, turns out you cant quarantine it either!
Not quite accurate. This was one of 3 or 4 positions Hine suggested in an off the cuff interview, due to his flexibility and ability to play a few on field positions. Hine also said that he possessed good speed which was also a factor in his recruitment.

Don't confuse your current path with your final destination. Just because it's dark and stormy now doesn't meant that you aren't headed for glorious sunshine!

Be No Worse then Madgen
Keep him at FF or CHF for FFS
If we recruited Peter Hudson, we would find a way to play him away from the sticks.
I liked Callow before he was grabbed by Hawthorn, he is another Hawkins type, big strong and has a role to play, none of this "Where can we play him?"
Johnson will have to get used to the players in the team and the non-game plan.
Maybe he can learn to kick backwards too, lol.

I herd this in the interview. It looks like we are building a team of defenders. Would suit our game plan.
That was one small part of the interview: He said he can be a matchwinner too which he's showed already in some matches this year. The reference to playing behind the ball was that has has (potentially) many attributes.
