Will be exposed in the next few weeks and be delisted at the end of next season. He does'nt have the attributes to be a valuable member of the RFC going forward.

Look I don't have a clue if he will make it either, but let's give the 21 year old a chance to play senior football before we write him off.
I reckon that why Jade's got Tom in the team now TB. Throw in Thompson as soon as he's right. Lets not die wondering eh! Good move by Jade.

He had the attributes to be drafted in the first round of a very strong draft. You don't just lose that.

God help me I hope he's better than that.

DUD of the highest order was Flem.
That will be enough of that blasphemy TOL.
Flem was similar in skills to Hislop but a more violent version.

You get all this from what, 1 and a half games of restricted AFL football?

Let's deal with facts here.

He was highly rated by the bombers. We know he was highly rated by our recruiting staff.
He had issues that made the situation there untenable.
He has had a restrictive groin injury that he hasn't yet shaken off till recently.
He has not played a game with us since he has shaken of this concern.
He has some mongrel that we lack and is a footballer with footy nous, something we lack.

Your dumb comments by the way are unfounded, where did you get that from, Television?
here here bob i reckon a few of the sheep will end up with rgg on their face.

We shall see. I called it early and will stick with it. Throw Thomson in and drop Tuck. Lets do this properly.
 
Everyone is slagging Flemming but of the same era there was Clinton King. IMO what a shocker! Oh what about Fletcher and Billy Nicholls gawd what a nightmare.

That was a great era in our history.

Welcome to Tigerland!

I saw him in the Pre-Season comp too.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not a over critical darksider, but I'm sure others agree, that sometimes you can just 'tell' whether a player will be the goods or not.

I have that feeling about him. I might be wrong, I'm not Nostradamus...

But my opinion is he won't be a long term solution because he lacks skill, class, poise, pace and from what I've seen is a poor decision maker.

Hopefully I'm proven wrong, but I'm standing by this opinion.
hey hey speak for yourself us darkies dont rip into kids and if we do we always give reasons. this darksider has always advocated we give hislop the chance to prove himseld just like i have for all our kids.
hislop is a hard tough nut who knows where to go has very good hands and is very team oriented. yep he may lack a yard and his kicking may lack a little penetration but this is not his role. get his motor up where it needs to be and play him onball you will see a different player.

i dont see him at coburg but he was a very good junior who brings to the table much of what we dont have.
just on fleming is still to this day close to the worst player i have ever seen. hislop uses his aggression smart and well fleming well what a crock of shiit

Yeh Billy Nicholls was pretty horrible.
