Tom Phillips??

From a keen Collingwood supporter:

"As much as I’ve enjoyed flipper, he kills you with turnovers and poor decision making. An absolute gut runner with a massive tank who can easily cover the turf but he’d be up there with the Gaff’s of the world if he could hit a target and be clinical in front of goal."

Interesting you saw in tonight’s game where cats were just that but cleaner and made better decisions in the big moments....that’s where carrying too many less skilled money ball types hurt you and finals often come down to a few moments...

No to people who can’t use the ball moderate to good

Yes, skilled ball users are very valuable. So now you've decided to keep Billings?

Aaron Fiora was a skilled ball user.

Lol

Not if he gets me Taranto
And I think Billings kicking is overrated his set shots under pressure are always a disappointment
But hey you’re all for stats.....and that’s all that matter right?

All for stats? Me? Exact opposite. Stats are overrated and overused, and most of them are useless.

However, sometimes they are all you have to try to sway a person's view when they don't watch games, or watch games with a unfavorable prepossession towards some players.

Good luck with that.

Good move by dogs. Removes the problem of Billings killing it every time he plays them.
So you are searching everywhere for ideas to get rid of Billings? Where's that one from? ........ Ah, BF ... Thanks Pebbles.

Can I ask, and I'm sure many forumites would agree, that the source of these type of rumours please be posted. Love to know where this stuff originates. That way if I start reading "someone posted on big footy" I can immediately stop and move to another thread.
Cheers.

Don't want Billings as a mid - Ratts has already indicated he wants him to spend more time forward as he hits the scoreboard, and moving between HF and wing & even around half back, plus a bit of mid time.

Billings vs Dogs? You're right, no need to go back 4-5 years. Sorry, no option but to use stats for reasons outlined in earlier post.

Let's see, last 3 H & A games ..... 2020 - 24 disposals, 3 goals, 2019 - 27 disposals 2 goals, 2018 - 27 disposals and a goal. Even the final this year, was tagged, and not as prolific, but was part of quite a few vital plays which resulted in goals or saving goals. Likely would not have won without him. Suggest you have a look at the game, Billings is No.15.

Seeing you won't get anywhere this year, suggest you revisit your trade JB topic next year, he will be RFA, that will give you more excitement. Unless Club re-signs him beforehand of course, which is very likely.
