Others love perfect conditions.FYI, that comment was pure speculation and a point i'd be highlighted to Freo as a reason why he'd be good for them. Quote Selected

If we include a hot water bottle and some thermal undies for the odd cold day in Freo then that should seal the deal then.... Seriously I did know what you meant, I was just enjoying some light banter and I do agree that SPS would prefer a dry track where he can keep his feet and use his undoubted skills to better effect.

A bit rich.When he is on like he was when he had 35 possies in a match he can play the game and look like a class player but its been a long while between drinks waiting for another great game like that one. We need players who have more than pretty skills on a fine day and players who dont pick and choose when to display them.He could probably be the new Lewis Jetta on the WC list and be a similar type player IMHO.

Too true and too conservative - turnover merchant when there is a chance to use his kicking skills to create something. Quote Selected
