Yes he was, but I was having a poke at him as Thailand is in the Northern Hemisphere

"A week ago Tom Young was relaxing on a beach in Thailand, this morning the former Collingwood utility was one of the fresh faces taking part in a benchmark running time trial at Whitten Oval"

later in the interview ....

"[I’m] pretty excited I have never been up in the Northern Hemisphere"

Hopefully he knows his way around the footy field.

He'd just been in Thailand, in the Northern Hemisphere.

Then he said about the upcoming trip with the team "I've never been in the Northern Hemisphere".

Took me a while to get it too.

I wonder how long until a world map with the Hemisphere's and Thailand highlighted appears in his locker down at the club?

I'm guessing it was up the next day.

Re: Welcome to the Bulldogs - Tom Young

Wasn't exactly jumping up and down with joy with the acquisition of Young, but after talking with a friend who is a Pies supporter, basically said his skills are decent without being a gun, but pretty good with the contested and one on one stuff, I wonder with being a defender we have him in mind to perhaps playing a similar role to Dale Morris, we don't exactly know if Morris will be anywhere near his best if or when he comes back.

What would everyone's expectations for a pick 71 be.
How many games is a win?

250 games, 3 time all Australian, Brownlow medalist and a 4 time premiership player.

But I have very low expectations.

This made me chuckle. Very good.

I'm hearing that he is probably more suited to a midfield role, but was well behind the likes of Swan, Beams, Pendlebury, Thomas, Sidebottom, etc at the Pies.

It will be interesting to see what role we have him pencilled in for.
