That's what I remember seeing him at GWS, has not shown being a big bodied player at all since moving over. Is slow and not particularly strong in the contest either. Looks leaner and yet doesn't run well & is injury prone. Red flags everywhere (at this stage).

Welcome to the Tigers Jacob Hopper
- Thread starter tigerman
- Start date
So about 50 games in 8 years? And a lot in the last 2? Confident you'll get 20 plus games a season out of him moving forward?
I do rate Hopper and believe he can get back to his 2019/2021 form.
Honours: GWS Giants 3rd best and fairest 2019, 2021; All-Australian nominee 2021; NAB AFL Rising Star nominee 2016. 2021 Brownlow Medal Votes: 15
In 2022 injured and only played 7 games.
And for us this year, there were games when I thought well done you played well but there were other times I would think man you should be doing more.
Here's hoping he goes up another cog and has a similar impact to what Taranto had for us this year.
Training today. Solid unit.

Yes. I also can’t stand these pictures of a player enjoying the time at his workplace and the company of his teammates.
He should be driving himself into the ground and barfing on the sidelines.
Smiling at work, should be outlawed.
If you are crying going to work I suggest you get a different job.
If people are wondering who we might’ve picked if we didn't bring in Hopper.
Curtin he has gone to Adelaide
Curtin he has gone to Adelaide
Could have been converted to next year's first pick (WCE).
Curtin versus next year's first is a nice little subplot, could West Coast surprise next year? I think it's possible, I'd be going bird in hand but there's also a chance West Coast still come out on top.
Could be, I still don't rate em. Probably need another 2-4 regular senior players (being generous) to climb the bottom rung of the ladder IMO.
I dont see west coke moving off the floor in 2024
very little talent on the list specially 1st round picks that are either in their prime or about to enter it
Yeah I agree. I can't see them finishing anywhere other than bottom.
