just for comparisons sake

aish 18 games 17.00 disposals 0.28 goals 68.9 supercoach
Kelly 15 games 15.87 disposals 0.67 goals 60.8 supercoach
billing 16 games 14.6 disposals 0.90 goals 61.9 supercoach
kennedy 14 games 10 disposals 0.64 goals 43.9 supercoach

Dunston 16 game 18.75 disposals 0.56 goals 74.4 supercoach

Dunstan clear the vest and kennedy the worst the other about even imo

Maybe you only see the highlights of the others so they appear to be better than they are?
I agree that Billings is good and im happy with him
The two Pies havent even played at all ( Scharenberg and Freeman)

But you should mention Kim Kardashian and Bontempelli if you want to do a serious comparison.

Why do we need JKH, when we have Jack Billings? LOL biggest thread failure yet! JKH lasted to pick 40 for a reason just like Lewis Taylor lasted to pick 25 because they are classified as to small to be playing AFL but obviously Taylor has had a pretty good season etc. Jack Billings will run rings around JKH imo.

He is 19 FFS and a pick 40..
And came in at 67kg.

Cant believe saints fans potting JKH.

Its pretty fricking obvious we need outside run/pace and kicking.

Even if all three of Billings ,Acres and Dunstan work out - that wont be anywhere near enough good players to get us off bottom.

We need a mix of talented players of all shapes and sizes to improve.

Serious?

So the whole team will just revolve around Jack Billings? 21 duds and Billings?
Unless you have Billings in 10 positions on the field plus rotating with himself off the bench?

We need talent - and lots of it- and in every singe position.

Jack Billings aint no saviour. Hes just one good player when we need another 16.

Why is it a biggest dick comp between Billings and JKH anyway? The OP was clearly saying we need a certain kind of player (which is obviously true because we need more of every type of player).

And people are so insecure they respond by either wanting to pot a 19yo kid (JKH) or for some irrelevant reason talk about whether or not Billings is better as if an entire footy side depends on one single player comparison.

Just weird.

Why cant people just say the obvious - that a pacey guy who can kick would be a nice addition to our current cop of youngsters without either bagging a young kid or saying 'yeah but so and so is better' .

It doesn't have to be one or the other. I mean we still have clint jones on our list ffs. So lets get some humility and perspective.

Think you're completely missing the point con.

Jkh is fine, but a troll telling us that maybe, hopefully one day billings will be as good as him?

Please elaborate.

Or are you too gutless to say what you mean and just hinting with a wink a nod to your like minded brethren?

Ive said it once and Ill say it again - you seem to be 'in the know' at the club - and if you are - then god help us - we will be bottom for another decade.

I think he's talking about Jeff Garlett from the Blues who seems to be on his way out the door.

Yep, thought it was pretty obvious. Don't think we'd take him even if he did come available but it would be detrimental of the club if it didn't explore all avenues. A professional club is always open to all situations. And Con we do have a 2 very fast players in the wings. Whether they play in the future who knows, we just need a touch of Lady Luck.
