There's a bit of Phil Manassa about young Abbott. If he can build up his tank he could be a beauty. With he and Maynard we've got a couple of real hard asses. Gotta like that.

what a great article.
Puts a lot of rumours into perspective.
This bloke could end up being a steal.
Really happy the recruiting team are giving him the opportunity and especially happy Balmy is back for the support.

a lot of muscle on show here, nice to have a non skinny who does not need years building up.

My concern would be that WC/Freo did not consider him, even as a rookie. But what the heck, only a rookie pick wasted if it ends up going that way.

Eagles where very interested but him not testing at state combine because of Bad Ankle Injury turned them off

After the epic draw comes the decisive knockout!
Collingwood rules the world again and Mick Malthouse fulfils his destiny with the twenty ten premiership and can you hear the people sing!

I said we needed a character to make up for all the types we've lost. Looks like Swanny might have someone to eat lunch with after all. :lol:
