Not even sad - tragic -given this and other contracts in the team - imagine if we get a new coach with some gonads - we will likely have the most expensive side running around in the VFL ever with Grigg, Houli, Hampson, Morris etc all with their papers marked but stuffing our recruiting for a couple of years.Sir said:Would be even funnier if it wasn't so so sad!!!
Meagan must have clouded our objective vision!!!
A 3 year contract???? SERIOUSLY????
Brodders17 said:Big game for Hampson tonight. Hopefully he shows why we chased him.
Tigertool said:If Ivvy is ready to go for Saturday night like it sounds, Hammer should go out. It'll be harsh because he did have a really good game last weekend, but I don't think we can risk having to rotate Shaun to the forward line.
giallo e nero said:What a joke he was recruited. I have absolutely no faith in anyone from the club. They really are a bunch of idiots, the recruiting, overestimating of the list and individual duds like this bloke is astounding. Furthermore, they won't be smart enough to give games to blokes like helbig, bachelor, miles etc. Just play them all year, and can morris, newman, king, hampson to actually find out if these others step up. Stay down the bottom and use the year for something and get a few good draft picks.

back to greg beck daysse7en said:Agree. Our recruitment has gone back to the dark old days.
You know you're bad when Melbourne supporters start laughing at us.
tigertim said:Hers my analogy in the RFC recruitment of Shaun Hampson.
I need a new car. My neighbour has a car up for sale. I've seen him drive it, it's a 1992 commodore bomb, always failing him, always taking it in for repair and when it does run it runs terribly.
I say " I'll buy it off you, here's $15,000". I could have bought one from carsales for $5000. But I jumped at the first car I saw available. I ignored its history and paid far too much for it. I didn't do my due diligence and see what else was available.
More fool me.
gold lol.TigerForce said:Maybe when the recruiters sat down to discuss if he was worth it, Megan accidentally walked in to the room nude and the blokes went --->
"Ooooooh yeah....maaaan.....sign right here Shauny"
Hmm....one Jordon McMahon might beat him to the finish line....I think we gave away more for him too....Tigers2011 said:You know you can't play when 70k people at the ground are simply laughing at you. Worst recruit I've seen in 35 years of going.
At least McMahon kicked one clutch goal - Why isn't the 10 metre miss up on the website under some humour?tivas-turnover said:Hmm....one Jordon McMahon might beat him to the finish line....I think we gave away more for him too....
