The chicken consented, it was all OK.
I heard it was caged. That doesn't sound like consent. H is investigating.
No - It was free range. It may not have had free will though. :wink:

I think Mullett would be a great fit for us. One thing we noticeably lacked last season was quality foot skills, especially coming out of the back half. Mullett is one of the better users in the competition and would hopefully thrive at the chance to become the general in this role.

He's never stood out to me as being anything but an ordinary footballer...and a little soft at that. Still what would I know? I never thought Heater or Swanny would become AFL players!

We have enough Mullett's at Collingwood.

Why would we trade a 199 game, current best 18, premiership and former AA player for a fringe player who has shown not much? Would rather get pick 25ish and Draft/develop our own.

I think a second round pick and Mullet for Lumumba and a third pick would get the deal done.

Mullet is younger than Lumumba and hence has more upside to his future as opposed to Lumumba who's probably past his peak now as a footballer but can still have an immediate impact with North especially if they challenge for a flag in the next 2-3 years so therefore a second round pick would be fair in contrast to North receiving a third rounder.

Yep if we could pull that off it would have lots of upside. Mullet is developing and tbh I like what I see. Great accurate left foot, run and carry, can find the ball and has the makings of beeing a very smart footballer. If we could somehow pry him out of Roos hands would be great. Trust me they have big plans for him going forward.
All this may be summed up in one word - CHARACTER - and if that is not worth developing, nothing is.
