One is a finished hack, the other is an absolute champion
Soloman a hack,? wouldnt think so.
That just shows how little you understand about football Blaisee. BIG ZERO.
Now wasnt it your mate Greg Miller who flew to London to try an get him 2-3 years ago ? Or am I just dreaming or telling liars as you put it again
Dean has played very well this season. One of the very few geniune tough players in the game, was excellent against the Cats 2 weeks ago.
Pitty he isnt playing for us.
Solomon has been ordinary for a number of years. We actually chased him in Millers first year - end of 2003, nearly 5 years ago. We chased him on the back of a few years of good form and demonstrated hardness, all attributes our club lacked and needed going forward. Since he knocked us back he has become much less effective and much more undisciplined, only turning it around slightly last year for his new team. His stats in the years since we chased him:
Disp Ave Tack Ave Free Diff
2004 399 17.3 88 3.8 -16
2005 192 12 45 2.8 -4
2006 243 12.1 48 2.4 -21
2007 316 15.8 108 5.4 +11
His well publicised battles with on-field discipline and attitude are the last thing our young team needed or would have benefited from, had we been successful in getting him in '03. I'm glad we didn't get him then and I doubt even more that we have chased him since, especially at the price he would have had on his head.
