Bugger. Would have been good for us. Suited our style and would have been best 22 despite the naysayers.

Ellis compo was definitely aside for him.

Ah well - Onwards and upwards.

'Stkilda is a great club and it has a better list"

Geez leysy you had one too many boags after the GF. You normally are spot on but this is another Collins moment.

Engaging my internal Zips...

"His a cat".

Cats don't like water.

Less chance of playing in the rain if you play most of your home games at Donald Duck Arena, under the closed roof.

In the famous words of Sir Zip.

Seen plenty of him. Not someone we would normally pick these days due to his poor disposal. Not only that would have had to give up a lot for him and pay him overs, something I don't think we can afford with our salary cap. We need to now be mindful of this with our trades as we need to cover back-ended contracts of Lynch and Dusty and still have movement to retain younger players.

From Gestapo website:

Balme also said interest in Zak Jones was overplayed and the Tigers didn't have the capabilities to bring in a player of his quality.

We can't fit all our midfield talent in right now. We still need to look to the future with KPP forwards and backs.

You know that Balme is talking shiitt. “Player of WHAT? Quality??? Don’t think so.

I thought our stance was IF the deal falls through with Saints we will entertain the option.

We have our own bigger version of Jones in KMac and also Menadue and both can't crack the team!

Anyway I really hope he goes to the saints so we don't even go there!

Please Saints. Get the deal over the line.

Then I can say Bullet Dodged.
