Still AA contention? Was suprised to see AFL website had him there, but Carlisle the 'unlucky' one.
Some stats: 120 Marks @ 6.3 - 14th in AFL
82 Rebound 50's @4.3 - 4th in AFL
To go with 44 INside 50's @ 2.3
Pretty solid stats as well as mostly good disposal. He has 5 goals for the season from 6 shots too. Not a great tally but when he has shots, he makes the most of them.
Had the tough decision of what number to get on my recently purchased jumper and I got his. What sold me you ask? The name Pig. One of the best nicknames in the comp IMO.
He is a gun, watched him closely in the 3rd term and he just busted his ■■■■ for the team. Started a play down back ran and linked up down on the forward flank.
Takes marks, makes good decisions and can run out of defence.
Bags has also had a solid year for a bloke coming off the rookie list. Two good players from Franga
Had a fantastic season and in the top 6 important players at Essendon IMO. Also has what a lot of others at Essendon lack - hardness and durability. Hibberd is most definitely not an early season flat track bully.
The All Australian selection panel is Andrew "Essendon will not get a safe landing" Demetriou (chairman), Kevin "throw the book at them" Bartlett, Luke "black ops" Darcy, Mark "strip Essendon of points" Evans, Danny "the silent CEO" Frawley, Glen "is he from WA?" Jakovich, Mark "stand down James Hird" Ricciuto and Cameron Ling. Reckon Hibberd's got a chance with this lot? Pigs might fly.
