Tony Libba rang SEN apparently to have a go at Gerard.

The 1990 Brownlow Medallist said Whateley’s comments were “flawed” and “totally out of line”.

“I just think we’re one or two players short,” Liberatore said.


“Is Aaron Naughton nothing? Is Tim English nothing? Give me Naughton any day over Tom Hawkins, right here, right now.


“He’s just come off from a broken cheekbone and he had a really good last quarter where he took three big pack marks and nearly won the game for us.


“Tom Hawkins kicked five behinds and was beaten by a player (Trent McKenzie) who was let go from Gold Coast and has done an amazing job from Port Adelaide.


“I just think your comments are flawed, I believe strongly in this and never rang up and mentioned this – I think we’re doing a good job and we’re just a couple of players short.


“How hard you went on us yesterday from my understanding from a friend of mine, is totally out of line.”
I agree with Tony, we are a few players short of being top 4, second ruck, Fullback, and small pressure forward.
