Sorry Billy
I owe our man Billy Longer a massive apology.
For some time now, I've told anyone who'd listen that Big Billy was a backup ruckman at best.
How wrong was I?
He has been a big part of what the team has produced in recent weeks.
After spending all of 2016 in the ressies, he has well and truly deserved what has come his way recently.
Keep proving me wrong Billy, I've loved every minute of it!!

Re: Sorry Billy
Tom can build his strength at a contest or plan around his lack of strength.
Can Billy become a better around the ground player?

Re: Sorry Billy
Clunked one beautiful contested mark; proves he can do it. One this week, 5 next
. Looks like he'll have a clear run for a couple at least given Hickey's injury at Sandy

Re: Sorry Billy
Billy had 4 handballs - and 2 of those handballs came from free kicks - he really needs to improve this part of his game.
He's durable at least - compared to Hickey.
