Has there been an announcement?

Rumple Simpkin.

Would he be beat 22 in our "normal team"? Does he play midfield or flank? What kind of size is he? I know nothing about him.
He'd be pretty close. Outside mid type.

If he was close you would think that we would have picked up in the PSD or as a DFA.

Not necessarily. Crowley I reckon would be pretty close to our best 22 but doesn’t mean you want to go picking up 28-29-30 year olds, in a normal situation.

Still not mentioned on the website?

46
Simpkin and his donkey

Edward and Mrs Simpkin?

47

He’s fast he’s slow, he’s high he’s low - He’s Simpkin!

48
Rumple Simpkin.

I like it. Henceforth, for me, he’s Rumple

49
Pazza was right.

I’m just glad we have someone on the list that we can use to reference The Simpsons.


Bit harsh on Pazza.

Still nothing official from the website.

"Simpkin, Simpkin…French isnt it? "

I'm moderately satisfied with this.

This pretty much sums it up for me.
At Hawthorn he was a list clogger this past season. Mainly because they have an awesome team to begin with, but they chose to develop other players instead of going with the tried and tested.

I don’t know if he’s in our starting 18, but at worst case, he should be a decent reliable player that can help off the bench or as depth coverage.

53

Quien?

54
Quien?

No se.

55

If he’s in hawks best 22 for a grand final a few years ago, he’s in our best 22 this year

56

The Club has confirmed The Rage was first with the news; email to members out now.

57

make him captain.

58

I saw the subject come through in my mail, and thought “Oh, Simpkin Signs, eh? I wonder who this new sponsor is…”

I that above or below comfortably satisfied?

Below.

It’s the same burden of proof that CAS used.

I thought CAS’s burden of proof was “speculatively possible”
