I agree with Lloyd
#26 Cale "Thank You Mr" Hooker
Disagree with Lloydās assessment ā¦
Cloke
50:50 at best
Hooker
2015 -21:21
2017 - 41:26
2018 - 3:1
65:48 since playing forward
Cloke operated at 55%
Hooker is operating at 57%
Cloke over a far greater sample size obviously.
Itās closer than he hints at. Completely. Ignores oobotf and kicks that didnāt make it.
I loved hearing Garry Lyon taking back his negative comments about Hooker during the game commentary Friday night.
Commentary on YouTube https://m.youtube.com/watch?t=175s&v=d5B7Qi6B9NY
He starts off with āWhat a grab! This blokes been magnificentā and then continues the praise.
Hird shared a funny story about Hooker on his podcast. It was the time when West Coast had tried to trade for him. Bomber and Dodoro went over to his house to discuss it. The story goes Cale saw them out the front and just locked the door refusing to talk to them, his rationale being if they canāt talk to me they canāt trade me. Hird went on to say how lucky the club was as a result and pumped him as a great footballer and leader. Also said he was able to fix his hamstring issues and improve his running by hiring his own running coach at the end of 2011 which was a big factor in his improvement.
ā ā ā ā ā ā ā love this guy.
Surely we can put this argument to bed now !
His best position is NOT defenceā¦
ā¦and itās NOT forward either.
Heās clearly a goal kicking wingman.
Letās not waste his natural speed by parking him in the goalsquare any longer.
Caleās an eagleā¦gotta let him fly
For mine, Caleās clunking in packs is the most gratifying spectacle of them all. Yeah, goals are great. Line breaking runs are special but nothing beats the power of Caleās hands and splitting of packs. Ha! Itās almost like watching a Marvel superhero movie.
Did we not put Hooker in the GF sprint once, and he ended up like 10m behind the 2nd last entrant?
SPEED

Surely we can put this argument to bed now !

Brown did alright on the wing at Sandringham.
As long as itās not like that time we put Paul Hamilton on Peter Matera⦠actually, no, stuff him.

Surely he just attached the gizmo to Irish.
You aināt fooling me Cale!
āHey Conor! Catch!!!ā
"??#$^?
āGreatā¦now throw it back to me!ā
āWhale oil beef hookedā¦ā
