Yep. Libba. Too many concussions.
Has it been confirmed he had one on the weekend?
Has he had any others apart than the one a few weeks back, which he supposedly passed the concussion test?
Are you joking ?

He probably won’t get another contract, however, some of those clubs listed would be better off with Mason Cox, as he is a second ruck (Cameron is out ruck)and a player who has proven can kick goals and be dangerous up forward.
Melbourne would have been better with Cox than Grundy. Even now they would be.
Essendon probably would have considered Cox over Goldstein if he was available (let’s face it, both are more effective than Draper).
Richmond would probably have looked at him over Naismith if he was available.
The thing with Cox is that he constantly has his arms chopped and rarely get a free. Blatant again against Carlton, particularly the play which had the ball fall into DeKoning’s lap after Pittonet chopped one of Cox’s arms.
LOL that's from last year blokeLibba subbed with concussion in big Bulldogs blow

Im saying he's had too many concussions in his career.
You asked if he'd ever any. He's had 3 in the last 13 months.
Want me to keep looking?
He's the next Liam Picken.
Libba should not be in this thread. Made the AA 40 last year and is still playing good football. The concussions and knocks are worrying me a bit, but they are in no way related to one year too long.

Thought Gunston was genuinely good this week except for his goal kicking, which is an issue for him this season. Has kicked 4.11 in 5 games, 3 years ago that is 11.4 and he is having a decent season
underszied defender who could play on bigs and smalls due to his insane athleticism. Was always going to struggle when lost that edge.
This is accurate. We all remember his ripping debut year but his 2019 season up until suspension was significantly better. Games against Port Adelaide and Melbourne most notably displayed his extremely damaging forward craft. Our delivery forward was not near as good as in 2018, so I don't really buy that he lucked himself into nearly 40 goals in his first year. He was a supreme talent.
Then he is suspended for 10 games, plays a role in an unsuccessful finals series but doesn't star. 2020 rolls around, he isn't picked on four or five occasions and the rest is history.
Although whilst the gambling suspension is what will be pinpointed to as the beginning of his demise, it was more likely the glandular fever he contracted in 2020 pre-season that made him not get picked in the team early. I don't think he was serious enough as a professional athlete in the COVID year to give it his best crack. The worst thing he could have done then was go to a struggling team, and also a club less under the microscope for him to get away with his lazy application.

Embarrassing way to become the leading games player for your club.
Hawkins being gifted games at this point. Play next week and then hang up the boots.

BT, although thats more like 10 years too many
There’s no way Hawkins retires before season’s end while the Cats are a huge chance to win the flag. I’m also not convinced that Hawkins won’t come out of this slump. If he does it’s great news for Geelong, and the later he leaves it the greater likelihood that he’ll be peaking at the business end of the season.
That said, if I’m wrong, then the noble thing to do would be to retire after equalling Selwood’s games record. It would almost seem petty to go one game up and then pull the pin.

He’s really fallen off a cliff the past couple of years. I used to find him vaguely amusing but now he’s insufferable.

Just quietly, I don’t think the Cats are a huge chance of a flag. Think they will slide to the bottom of the 8, who knows, maybe even out of it.

Hawkins still takes up great positions to create space and is willing to sacrifice his game for the team. He's a long way below his best but still clearly worth a spot in the team.
Stanley on the other hand looks all sorts of cooked.

Already confirmed that he will be rested for next week.

He's not on for football reasons so it's slightly disrespectful to talk about him like this.
But technically, it's correct

Hawkins is here to break a record then politely feign a back injury and get back to the farm
