I'm guessing Boak retirement. If it's Hinkley standing down they've completely f*cked something else up this year. Surely not.

To be honest though, I'm not sure on why we'd recruit him, he has a twin brother that plays for the Roos FFS, as if that isn't a recipe for wanting to head home at some stage.


Good chance he is playing at St Kilda next year ;)

Great one club player. Thought he played his best footy after relinquishing the captaincy.

Media or coaching career perhaps?
