Welcome to the Tigers Jacob Hopper

Try this..... btw, didn’t watch the first series as that knucklehead Colin Young was in it. Saw a clip...think Jerry Maguire!
I imagine there'll be plenty of C grade acting from Paul Connors too.

It is an Age article so have you just tried opening a new 'Incognito window' and copying the articles URL into the browser?
I have never NOT been able to log into an Age article.
The Herald Sun on the other hand is a different story, unless you subscribe you're virtually pawalled on everything.
Give it a try.
Cheers

Paul Connor's seems to be a great player manager, generally gets his players to their club of choice.

Yes.... no doubt about that.
Just appears there are some managers who love a bit of 'me time' and there's the thing that if you are being followed by a film crew, the opportunity to act up to the cameras would be somewhat enticing.

Try right clicking on the article's heading. Brings up a little panel of options then click on the incognito option. Only took me a few years stuck behind the wall before I got shown where to find the bypass.

It was a great Doco, was just about a dud trade period tho. I was wishing they did it on this yrs one & they are. It's well worth watching.

Having seen Paul Connors in a social setting several times, he wouldn’t be my first choice of player agent…..

He's flying under the radar a little but JH should add much needed steel around the coal face.
When fit ,Hopper was ranked tenth in the league for clearances pg in 2021. Also top ten for contested possessions.
Time will ultimately tell but he says he's fit again..it should give us a totally different look. Can't wait to see what he brings.

Hopper returned to training 2 weeks before he needed to and hasn't missed a session or barely sat out a drill so we can trust the fitness call. As you say has flown under the radar and I have hardly mentioned him in my training reports, that is not because he is not good but the glorified circle work so far is not where you expect to see him shine.
Strengths are: Contested ball, strength, clearances, goal kicking so waiting for training to crank up with more contested work and match sim for a reminder of what he will bring :)

I think Hopper will play the Cotchin role from 2017-2020.

Can't wait for him to be out there.
