It's indoor soccer but with slightly different rules. Very fun, but really stretches the fitness.

Re: Hamling a Dog
Just watched Hamlet's highlights reel on the WB club website - gotta say, he looks like a real KP prospect for season 2015. He's tall and he has a bit of a build too.
Officially on the Bus-wagon

If he is half as determined as the original Hamlet we've got a player!
They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

Re: Hamling a Dog
My expectations are relatively low, but he does project to me as a Hargrave replacement. Quite tall, very quick and suited to the third tall or small forwards.

Looks to me like a dead set CHB, FB or CHF. He has the size.

Re: Hamling a Dog
Only have the highlights to go by. Seems to be a bit of a two-grabber when marking but lot to like about his spoiling, recovery, ground work and athelticism. Worth a punt.
I thought I was wrong once but I was mistaken.

Looked like a player not worthy of being on Geelong's list, so they thought. I hope the best for him but our record of taking Geelong fringe players is not good.

Regardless of who he played for previously the strike rate at grabbing any delisted player wouldn't be very good.

Agreed, if he gets a season or two of good form its a bonus, ala Bandy. Otherwise it's Lower, Young etc. Richmond have come undone hitting delistees to hard and it looks like Carlton is going down it. I think of coming off rock bottom like being pregnant. You either go the draft and select trades or not. Topping up fringe players is a waste of everyone's time and effort. But I hope Hamling proves this wrong.

No worse than rejects from any other club. Virtually nil. But hope springs eternal.

Re: Hamling a Dog
He also kicked 5 goals in one match this season in the VFL.

He was cut because of a surfeit of players like him or so it has been said. Add that the Cats brains trust were inspired to trade pick 21 for StK dud Stanley.
