If Bruce doesn't come up you may have the pleasure of Billy out there vs Adelaide.samuraisaint wrote: ↑Mon 22 Apr 2019 10:15pmBut we did before he was offered the contract - Hickey. Pretty obvious now that Marshall has made the #1 Ruck position at St. Kilda his, but it sounds like Longer is going to be playing for the reserves all year unless we specifically get an injury to Marshall. I wonder if he would've signed the contract in the first place if he knew this would be the case. Mind you I have always been of the opinion that Longer and Hickey's greatest weakness was always injuries. They get back in the side and get injured again.remboy wrote: ↑Mon 22 Apr 2019 9:09pmBecause we don't have anyone else. If Longer hadn't got injured he would have been our first ruck in round one.

Then if he's so ill-equipped to play at the senior level, why did we give Longer another contract (honest question)? My next question is; is it a one or two year contract?

Of course Longer would’ve signed it, who else was going to offer him one?
