Do it for your mum, Ben!
I mean, um, haha wouldn’t that be funny if we got him.
I think he’s pretty serious
Some people could probably cope with having just a hundred million in the bank at that age.
Even without any super.

Makes sense, we are the Tullamarine Globetrotters after all.

Who is Ben Simmons?
I love some of the responses on Twitter suggesting he should go to Geelong, Carlton or even Sydney Roosters.
I feel they’ve missed the point.
Someone ever suggested Xavier OB because they’re red and black too.
Even the AFLs well documented disdain of a successful EFC would be trumped by the prospects of ‘finally’ cracking the US market.

Bring him in disco.
We really should be adding bogut to the category b rookie list this year.
Would be pretty cool for him to get a token one off game.
Adds extra depth if Bell and Draper go down, and he’s out of play offs.

Would make Grundy and Gawn look like bush league ruckman in terms of athleticism if he did play.

Funny timing for his tweet.
Absolutely bugger all happening in the AFL world, and the NBA season kicked off 2 weeks ago and is in full swing. Yet he is tweeting the Bombers.
That being said, you could blow me over with a feather if he EVER left the NBA for another sport.

Nice laugh.
But on a more serious note. Can Benny Simmons help us find our version of Mason Cox?
Look if Shiel is prepared to pass up a few million what’s $40mil for Simmons.
Also continues the tradition of S’s incoming!
Good to know Essendon are ready for him.
Great to see how much he loves the Bombers.
