Hickey good again. Longer to be traded as he is 4th in line now.

Yep, another solid game by Hickey. Most hit outs on the ground, and we broke even in clearances with the reigning premieres.

I especially liked in the last when he followed up after the centre bounce, knocked some blokes out of the way, tapped the ball out in front of Gresh who then goalled. Won’t get a stat for it, but he was the reason for the goal.

I suppose this is from the man who argues 12 is more than 11!

Felt like 29, just checking to see if your sad, lonely little life still revolves around Stonecold watch, looks like it, but apparently Tom beat Nank?????

So 11 is more than 12 in your little world?????

Its still a win less fail for Tom from me!!!!!

[stonecold]

How did Peirce go last weekend?????

Scrap that, just remembered, they had the bye!!!!!

We will need two rucks against Eagles, so who comes in, also given that Jake (who provided relief, and looked better than Hickey) will be out!!!!!

So does Marshall come back?????

[saynta]

Billy had a good game while Marshall was fair.

One of them should be called up.

Marshall can play CHB

Cheers, just think Tom will need help this week against TicTac and Lycett!!!!!

Also think Jake will still miss a week even if successful at tribunal!!!!!

Hope Nic Nat doesn't wack Paddy.

[kosifantutti]

Nic Nat Paddy whack?

[saynta]

Nic Nat Paddy whack?

Anyway, I hope we don't get boned.

[stonecold]

We need to play two Rucks this week, so we need 1 and a half more!!!!!

So who plays, Marshall, Longer or Pierce?????

Thoughts?????

Let's play them all and then we will be close to having 2 Rucks!

[chico2001]

Longer is useless but has experience and is big bodied so he would be my call, Marshall would get destroyed

[Saintmatt]

I think the only problem with that is that Perth Stadium has shown itself to be a spacious fast deck and that's unlikely to help Billy (given he's pretty hopeless as soon as (1) the ruck contest is over and (2) the ball hits the deck).

I fear for our scoreboard this week if they manage to get it on the outside a lot and given NicNat is in reasonable form (as are their mids) ....

[The_Dud]

Maybe just look to concede against Nic Nat and play an extra mid in there when he’s rucking, and hopefully cover their mids and try read his taps..?

[chico2001]

The Eagles are all in great form, Lycett is playing like a no 1 ruckman. The ground is big I agree but no good sending in a young body, tic tac is a pretty big machine. Marshall is not that mobile yet either, it will be a tough test for him if he is picked. Thats the folly of letting Mcevoy go.

[skeptic]

The problem is you just can’t have Hickey and Longer in the same team no matter who you prefer

So that leaves Marshall or Pierce to have to come in.

It pbly makes the most sense for Marshall to go to CHB... but I’ll be honest, am hanging to see Pierce have another go. The insiders have said he is the most natural of our rucks before he vanished last season.

[Flagless]

Gotta be a better option than what Hickey is bringing to the table, Grundy smashed him!!!!!

With Longer struggling with fitness and form, give Pierce a go!!!!!

Grundy topped the AFL fantasy points on Saturday Night!!!!!

Hickey is a non identity at Centre Bounces and throw ins, he's lack of physicality really gets under my skin!!!!!

As for he's kick across the ground in defence, well, this is a perfect example of why he's cheap possies around the ground are pointless!!!!!

If Pierce isn't better than Longer and Hickey he should retire, because those two would have to be the worst pair of ruckmen in the league

[chico2001]

Probably right skeptic, they are not a good match in the same team. I dont know anything about Pierce so can't comment. It looks like Marshall then. If we are not in front at quarter time it will get bloody ugly, very quickly.

[The_Dud]

Most hitouts on the ground, 18 touches, +7 in clearances, anything nice at all to say about Hickey Stoney???

I meant Hickey had more hit outs then anyone else on the ground.

So he should of, he spent more time in the Ruck than anyone else, (double really), yet still lost the hitouts to he's opponents, NicNat in the best players for eagles, didn't see hickeys name in there!!!!!

Something to say: Hickey is the softest player in the league and another loss with him as #1 Ruck!!!!!
