“I find it nearly impossible to make those judgments, but he is certainly up there with the really important ones, he is certainly up there with the Francis Bourkes and the Royce Harts and the Kevin Bartlett and the Kevin Sheedys, there is no doubt about that,” Balme said.

One of Patton & Tomlinson, one of Kelly & Shiel and Stevie J. assistant coach thanks. Hooper best of the rest (actually Smith is but we have enough bloody smalls).

Both Patton & Tomlinson hitting their straps this year would have their managers asking for a decent pay increase.
Kelly I would think be asking for more as well and will have plenty of clubs asking about him.
Hopper & Matt Kennedy would be good targets as I highly doubt GWS will be throwing the big dollars their way just yet.
My bet is at least 3 off that list to end up at the Blues.
If I had to target 1 of them then I'd go Hopper.
The possibility of physical and mental collapse is now very real. No sympathy for the Devil, keep that in mind. Buy the ticket, take the ride.

Could very well be but what colours will he be wearing?

Damn....Tomlinson just re-signed with Great White Elephant until 2019....obviously rejected our advances (and Carlton's too...).... :shh

Hopefully they'll all start to want to come home after they've won a few flags....

if we dont move the coach on, no one will want to come to us.
