LOL. Can't see Jibbs getting anywhere near a hard ball that biscuits is in the vicinity of.
I too thought he was signed...wouldn't be too concerned the club wants him. If they didn't want him they wouldn't have put his post season interview up on the club website.
I'm just worried they intend using him
as trade bait. I'm probably wrong but he's the one name on the uncontracted list that I really REALLY want us to retain

DDT You are right there. Arnot has something we have missed these last few years. a bit of mongrel about him and hard as nails. We would be foolish to move him on.DirtyDogTiger said:
Other then his hardness at the man, I don't see a lot of AFL qualities, hope he has a big tank as I think he will need it to be any chance
In his few AFL games he has shown us there is something worth having in him. Given some good coaching he could go on to be a good reliable mid or even small forward. He has the raw talent and he isn't scared of a hard hit unlike one or two of the current 22. Got to be a keeper for next year at least
I like something about Matthew Arnot that reminds me of Matthew Rogers. (I disagree with mainstream opinion on Rogers.)
As a young player, aside from kicking the goal, Rogers had one key strength that Arnot has shown. That's an occasional ability to be the blur.
Just as the ball is moved hurriedly by an opponent a Richmond blur cleans him up. You slow down the replay. You frame-by-frame. You have to press on or rewind further to identify the Richmond player. As a young player Rogers was that blur.
Arnot did it twice last Escort Cup. The blur. More of that.
