Sure Hampson didn't set he world on fire at the blues, but we need to ask how he'll fit in to our structures.
An athletic big man often burnt by the run and carry of the Carlton midfield. For us he could be an athletic big man easy to spot up with precise passes or a long get out kick.
Blair and co are consummate professionals. Hampson has size and can run and jump. They obviously think he is a good fit with our kick and push gameplan.
One thing for sure : we went after him like he was exactly what we needed.

Window closed in 3 years. Hahahaha. Oh man. You are a funny bugger. So I take it you expect to win the flag in the next 2 years? At least think before you try and say something smart. You are a bright one. :rofl :rofl

Looks like it Ruby. Maybe those that watch the kid's may know of a promising young ruck we could get late in the draft.
Hampson does have more AFL experience and age over the Big 'O' so it does seem a logical move to me. Todd Elton is supposed to be an up and coming ruck so I suppose the Big 'O' along with Tom D will get the DCM.

PS Take note Essendon!
We have done this since Blair come on board. Identify the need, pick the best player to suit the need and then offer something fair and reasonable to get the job done.Carter said:

Sounds good Riddles. Looks like they did the homework. Shame we couldn't stooge Cartoon with another Grigg/Collins trade though. ;D
Good to hear Orro staying with us for another season at least.

No doubt they did their homework. Whether they did it well or not remains to be seen. I don't rate Hampson at all; built like Tarzan plays like Jane. Pick 28 is massive overs IMHO but then again I wouldn't have gone there at all.
Hopefully it works out but I don't like the trade.

SO because I and some others have an opinion that is not all rosey and following the club line we are "experts" what if we are right are we allowed to come back and demand those who are wrong face up and admit it as no doubt we will be called upon to do so if he is a success.
Maybe in future we should all just say the club is doing a wonderful job and not have a differing opinion. :
Welcome Shaun and we hope you have a great career ( well some of us) at the mighty RFC.
The usual suspects are out and about poo pooing your recruitment but hey everyone's a bonafide recruiter
around these parts, that's what makes PRE such an enjoyable read. ;D
