It’s not rocket science to see that Hooker and Hurley are both 30 odd and don’t have another 10 years ahead of them.
He and BZT are the next generation but they have to earn it. Nobody is going to give guarantees.
We also probably need to get another genuine tall defender into the system in the coming couple of years.

Could you offer a little more evidence/explanation on how this development has been ******?

If we hadn’t been 10 points up that mark in the D50 at the end would have got a lot more notice.

Some of his spoils were huge too.

Sign him up and settle him back. Not one we can afford to lose.

Alternatively the attempted outside of right foot kick he completely botched which turned it over in middle of ground to where they had numbers could have seen them kill the game on us.
Luckily the next kick after they gained possession from his shank was short and ended up out of bounds. From another throw in from there we were able to get downfield for Hooker to mark and goal and put us ahead.
I thought he was very average vs GC

Hooker is really close to the end. Franga will get his position.
I know right, only won 2 of the past 5 games for us. He’s finished.

Give him a new 4 year deal then?
It’s unarguable he’s close to the end. 2 years max, also losing 1 on 1s he would never lose but that could be him not 100% fit.
It feels like yesterday we went through the whole Francis is leaving / Francis re-sign/resign rigmarole.

You’re a drip
I’m not quite sure how we’ve stuffed him up? He would have to be close to the least fittest player that’s 4 years into the system plus we also have 2 AA kpd’s that’s also kept him out of the team.
At least he still would have a high value if he’s open for trade.

Or maybe the club has just won 5 in a row for the first time in years and is on track to make top 4 if the teams form holds up with the best shot at winning a final that we have had since 2004?
Nah. He wants to be reassured there is a long term plan for him at the club with the club’s best KPP at 30 and 29 and Aaron being entrenched in the best 22 right now.
You cannot make this up.

He would need to improve a lot to be an adequate replacement for either Hooker or Hurley as it stands at the moment.

Pretty sure he’s got Hurls covered already.
