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

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:
