WP any comments?

No made my point,

He is not on the $$$ you suggest

And I won't whack the bloke for the knee injury he suffered last year - bad luck doesn't make you injury prone. But will whack the club for the terrible handling of his injury issues this season.

Off to the airport, have a plane to catch

Rubbish
let's be honest what would you, I  or anyone know exactly  what his on. We are the club who signed Angus Hampson  on for 350k so anythings possible. What sickens me is we nearly lost dusty cause we allocate money to  spuds like knights and Edwards.

His whole body is a ticking time bomb. Today knee tomorrow left ear lobe.  Was exactly like that at Adelaide. Would think Shaun Higgins would have been a better option and that's saying something

Fact is that knee injury was not his first injury, he continually get's injured even before we picked him up = injury prone

Should offer him a rookie position. If he can get his body right he could be an asset. Won't cost us much as a rookie.

Would be good for the richmond vfl side to have him on the rookie list or vfl listed player

Will stand corrected but wasn't the dislocation and the subsequent serious ligament damage last year to his good knee?

And sorry and I'm no medical expert but I don't understand how dislocating a kneecap is a result of being injury prone, it was freak injury.

I know he had injury probs in Adelaide but weren't they predominantly soft tissue? This knee injury was not a soft tissue injury

Any injury, freak or otherwise, contributes to someone being 'injury prone'.
