Apparently Hickey is the worst ruckman in the comp.

Difference tonight was the two soft goals NicNat got in the first.

Hickey was good. We won the clearances against one of the better clearance teams in the comp.

Made a few blues, but we were plus 7 in clearances against the top team, so have to be happy about that!

Yep... he’s no Grundy, but Hickey can play. We finished with 7 more clearances, and he was very good around the ground.

Played Ok, Eagles ruck won more taps but we won the clearances. Hickey needs to contest in the marking duels more aggressively though.

Wowwee, check the best players and stats!!!!!

Clueless, as for two soft goals Red, he got two yes, 1 through soft 50 and 1 in a non contest out marking hickey, so yes, I spose your correct!!!!!

Softest player in the AFL and still cannot lead us to a win, hasn't done for a long time now!!!!!

At least he got a couple of goal assists, which Josh Kennedy was really grateful for!!!!!

Geez, aside from the hit outs, I think he is really average around the ground. He just lacks endeavour. If we put him up for a trade, I don't think there would be any interest.

I assume you’re talking about Longer?

Weller was also listed in the match report bests, yet I thought he was pretty ordinary.

Hitouts was 38-32, Eagles way, not sure what game you were watching but they had two Ruckman!!!!!

No presence, way too soft, if your happy with that performance, well that explains a lot!!!!!

Another loss with Tom as #1, just keeps racking them up!!!!!

Hickey is handy when he's on. I actually think our decent form in previous seasons was pretty much down to his form.

But he does appear to lack a bit of presence in some contests around the ground at times.

The problem is though, that he is miles and miles ahead of Longer in every aspect.

Even in a bad day, he's a better option than Longer.

Marshall is a fair way off, so while we wait for him, we really need Hickey up and about.

Hickey was one of the main reasons we had such a good last quarter- excellent use of handball under pressure at centre bounces. NicNat got a couple of lineball frees against Tom early. Probably the best ruck game a Saint has played for a while- especially seeing it was against the top team on their turf.

Stone dead, given it is a male, obviously has a hang up about being hard

Because he can not get it up himself?
