Recruitment of a ruckman

True and we allready have Smack.

Didnā€™t he suddenly collapse in a game back in 2016 from delayed concussion symptoms or something? Not sure he would be prepared to jump back into the game (nor do I want him).

He tried to mark a footy that wasnā€™t there.

Then collapsed.

Does it really take hindsight to say that something was off?

Yep. Happy to pass on dudes attempting to mark an invisible footy.

Has Tom Campbell been playing decent footy in the VFL this year?

Would be a little surprised if we picked him up given the dogs ruck stocks are worse than our own and they delisted him.

He has and had 72 hit outs in one of the games from memory.

Interesting, wouldnā€™t be opposed to giving him (or Clarke) a year as a contingency behind T.Bell and Draper. Basically direct replacement for Luey.

However Iā€™d actually prefer backing in Draper and having McKernan as ruck contingency. Addition of mid-season rookie draft would give us an opportunity if T.Bell did go down with a LTI.

Also would allow Lavender to have a more prominent role in the VFL as heā€™s coming OOC end of 2019. Keen to see if he can show some promise.

More Riddells Creek playersā€¦
Already have Matt Darby.

As bizarre as it was, itā€™s wasnā€™t a reflection of his football ability one way or another, but it was indicative of the dangers of concussion

Although why were discussing Vickery as an option anyway I donā€™t know. Heā€™s done

The one lead to the other, IMO

Vickery. Fmd. Itā€™s a long off season

Maybe we could just try repurpose Stewart.
Seems to have lost his spot in forward line.
Is a good height, looks fairly strong and Mobile.
With some intense specialist coaching maybe he could fill that hole if required and give him a chance to get into the team?

I canā€™t wait til next offseason when all the threads are like:

ā€œHow fucken Good was Zerrett in the GFā€

ā€œThat one on one that Redman won and then the kick to Heppell to turn defence into attackā€¦ I just canā€™t stop watching a replay of thatā€ā€¦

ā€œIt was ā– ā– ā– ā– ā– ā–  good to feel confident about the result by halftime and just enjoy the dayā€

Weā€™d so get fined for the growth effects of his hyer-pituitaryism

That is not left field thinking, that is flat out, left right out thinking. Hard to think of a dumber idea that l have ever heard on BBlitz, and considering l have been on here nearly 18 years, that is quite some dumb going on there. Major league right there, always was.

Did you pass letters around with questions and answers on them in those days? ā€˜blockingā€™ would have been quite fun, also.

Sometimes you just have to share your dumb ideas to get the conversation moving. Otherwise we just talk about Campbell for weeks.

Suddenly Campbell is looking great.

Nicely done.
