I remember hearing Simpkin talked up a fair but by commentators, but never saw much of him myself. Be interested to hear from those who have.

Very surprised to hear this, my Geelong friends rated him highly… 10cm shorter than tom probably doesn't help.

Suprised after he was picked to replace Stevie J in the finals.

Too much of the same, no thanks. Maybe to Gillies, but not to Toms brother.

Get both Simpkin and Gillies. Get as many as we can so we only draft the absolute minimum.

In Springfield, they're eating the dogs. The people that came in, they're eating the cats. They’re eating – they are eating the pets of the people that live there.

He's quick, but from what I've seen both in the AFL and the VFL he is pretty similar to David Wojinski in the front half

I think it would be good for Tom to have a next of simpkin around.

We'll have to sack a few more players to fit all these rejects onto the list...

Imagine this place if we drafted in a list full of cloggers.... :shock:


How many defenders will The Saints pick in the 2024 draft ? :lol:

Made two grand finals with a bunch of cloggers.

I think we got the better Simpkin.
