Aaron Edwards?

Post: # 1268982Post saintjake »

Pushed of the side by Robbie tarrant.

I know we arent looking for the third tall forward.
But I think he would come reasonably cheaply and if used just as the third tall forward, could be pretty effective.

Thoughts?

We already have a number of potential third tall forwards. Not a position we need to recruit for. Maybe a first tall forward.

On second thoughts, he does have a New Zealand father.

Maybe we can get him and Khan and play them once a year :wink:

Good footballer, think he has a troubled off field though.

Would be a good fit up with the bloods culture ;)

Should have taken him when the Kangas got him. Not getting any younger, and would only take games away from Stanley, Siposs, Markworth, Milera etc.

Reasonably cheap? Surely hed pay us to play?
I wouldnt say no to having him on 1 year on 100k + performance bonuses. Lovely kick and can take a hanger!

Inconsistant gap-filler, has occasional good day, but rather go for youth

Sure has..................................... Eagles off loaded him with first drug scandal. That was in the era of Cousins, Flechter, el al. Also remember Edwards was caught on the police phone tapes (re the shooting in the Perth nighclub), talking with Daniel Kerr about that veterinary drug (K something) they had been taking.

Edwards wasn't a regular in their team so he was shunted off very quickly. Kept the rest of the drug suspects as they needed to win a premiership.

IMHO don't need to pursue him.

Good post. Heard Sherman from the Dogs wants out as well. We need to think big given that BJ has left and need like for like on the list.

I like Edwards but not sure of his value to us unless we lost Kosi and changed our fwd ruck set up! Would love to know position of NMs Cam Pederson though, had a super 2011 but played FA in 2012!


Maybe this year?

Nah but they just look s***, in fact I'd say that I'm pretty radical looking with my clean skin.
