2013 Offseason News ‏@theafloffseason 4h

Jesse White has met with Collingwood and the Western Bulldogs according to 3AW.

White for Heater... happy with that trade
Pies have Cloke and Lynch along with Reid if need be. Dogs have Campbell, Cordy and Jones and dont need White. White to Freo IMO, he wont stay at the Swans. He could have been a crow!!!!! Luckily he said no and will get more money.

Ringo

Do you think he will want to return home Tabs - Suns or Lions May be a good fit at Suns while they continue to develop Dixon. Lynch and Day.

Rumours now that Mummy could head to GWS.

Looks like someone is shopping Mummy around... appear resigned to losing him.

Just about getting the right deal now.

Prefer Patton for Mummy, than Heater for Mummy! :P
There were rumours a couple of weeks ago before we played the Hawks in R23 that Mummy would either go to Hawks, GWS or Pies. He then played the game of his life V Hawks in R23 and Pyke came out and said he will stay. But he has struggled ever since. I think the no dickhead policy will be used and Mummy will go

Possibly, but i think he will get more money elsewere. I hear Brown and Black want to play on but it will be up to Leppitsch to see if they stay or go. To be honest Ringo, he isnt the power forward you need

What's the deal with Tony Armstrong? Seems to be falling further and further behind in the pecking order. Just looked through his stats from the NEAFL and they are pretty decent.

Played 12 games during the H&A season and averaged 24.75 disposals (17 kicks, 7.75 handballs), 4 marks, 2.17 tackles, 3.2 I50's and 3.67 R50's. So fairly solid numbers for a half back, which equated to a DT average of 88.75.

But then in the finals he stepped it up to another level! Played 3 games in the finals and averaged 28.66 disposals up 3.91 (21.33 kicks up 4.33, 7.33 handballs down 0.42), 6 marks up 2, 5.33 tackles up 3.16, 4.3 I50's up 1.1 and 5 R50's up 1.33. This resulted in a DT average of 119 up 30.25!

So is there as spot for him in the team or is he well away from the team at the moment?

The kid can play. I think it is his defensive pressure that sometimes lets him down. Also, when he has come up to the AFL level he lacks confidence, rushes his possessions and has a habit of getting caught with the ball.

What he needs is another decent run of games to develop some confidence. Will he get that at the swans?? not sure. Some of the other emerging talent has pushed him down the queue.

My Chumps

Pretty sure (and correct me if I'm wrong) that he was best on in the NEAFL grand final too a couple of weeks ago. I hope he gets a crack, I've always liked him.
