Hard to blame the Bombers for that given how fragile his body has been .. How old is he now? Thought he showed some glimpses this year briefly when he got out on the park for a few consecutive games, but still really only looked a "bit" player in the main.


He's 24 I think. Big risk but could be good if injury free

Carlton have denied this. Have no idea what they would see on him. I do believe.gumby is on the agenda.

I think the watts rumour is also bs.

Monfries has quit Essendon and will reportedly sign a 4 year deal with Port.
Sturt will get their compensation for Pearce after all :lol:

I think his manager is blowing some wind up the media's backside and they've run with it. Swann said that this rumour is bollocks

Lots of blowing and LOTS of wind I'd be saying. To say the guy is being pursued by 6 clubs is just ridiculous.
