Happy New year TCD.

My understanding is that its not working out well with living arrangements and training. Have also heard that there has been some family issues and his wife has headed home with the kids.

This is from some blokes from Willi. Hopefully its not as serious as that - but my mail on him was a bit harsher than what I've said above - but its obviously not fair to throw it around second hand on the website.

Even before they drafted him they had a plan to take care of his family and the move etc.
If it hasn't worked out i can only imagine it might be some homesickness. Can take some time to adjust

What's happened to Thorne? Seems to have disappeared off the radar.

I don't think he's quite up to the fitness level required for AFL just yet.
He'll start from a long way back, maybe even Williamstown 2's this year.

You'll have to wait a while to see him in red white and blue if at all.

Well, its good to see Shane has recovered from his knee injury and is back on the park . It would be interesting see where he would be now if he was fit injury free and still on the list , the same as Hill in and out of the side or maybe Harbrow's replacement in the BP , ah well water under the bridge stuff

Talk about hypothetical. If he was fit and had the desire, he possibly would still be on our list, then again he still may not have been playing with us this year.

It's good to know we're searching far and wide in order to find the best talent available.

What are people's thoughts on Dalrymple following a similar path to his predecessor Scott Clayton? i.e smokies

what's a smokie? all smoke no fire?

An outside chance, one not seen as a front-runner.

Thanks. I'm guessing it comes from Horse racing.
Might be good to get another NT thunder kid to keep Zeph company
