    The 'Talls of Shame' list is reserved for players we traded in from other teams.
    Players we thought would 'make a difference'.

    AND DIDN'T.

    Average hack, bargain basement talls, picked up for a couple of years at the end of their careers.


    Rory Lobb's record is pretty drab and I think his name fits perfectly on that list. Personally I hope that deal doesn't happen.

    I mean by your own rules you need to at least let the bloke play a few games before putting him on the list. Unless the English language has changed and 'didn't' is now future tense.

    Yes you are correct hujsh. I can't add Rory Lobb to the list yet.
    And hopefully I won't have to. But he seems to fit the general profile.

    Hargraves and Wight don't qualify as they weren't traded in but drafted.

    If we are 2 include draftees that would require another very expansive list.


    Apologies Dancin' Douggy.

    I see the post above mine was edited so now what I'm saying makes no sense. WOOF is a harsh mistress when you get too lazy to hit the quote button
    Ryan was singular.

    Don't get BAD started on the spelling.

    I'm pretty sure it was singular when I replied but alas that information is lost to time now
