    Sinclair's marking ability will really give us another dimension around the ground that we haven't had with Mike in the last season or two. He is also a tremendous athlete who kept up with and beat quite a few weagles midfielders in the time-trials last pre-season.

    If his tap work can develop enough to allow him to play 70-80% ruck and leave Tip at full-forward, we will be a much more dangerous team.

    Happy to see the back of anyone who wants 'to move home'.

    He has a young family; he's not some 18 year old missing his mummy. The only thing pathetic is the fact that you can't understand why people would put family first.

    Tip at full forward would be great. Guess the only Thing left is make sure with get the other Callum (Mills) and Dunkley. Though I see we have had talks with Collingwood's Paul Seedsman

    Seriously?
    Millions of people around the world want "to move home".
    All of them just can't be pathetic.

    It's not like he's Rocca and he's missing his mother... he's a premiership player who has more than served his apprenticeship with this club.

    Lucky Jetts.
    He's getting everything he always wanted.
    Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.
    Blessed are the cracked for they are the ones who let in the light.

    I believe both clubs had a win win

    The variable will be how each club replaces this loss ,against the performance of those who fill the respective gaps

    Best wishes to both boys for successful careers

    Did you have the same opinion of Nick Davis when he left the Pies to move back to Sydney?

    He wanted to go and only 1 club was in play, we did very well considering.
    Whilst i love Jetta and he is a good talent, he is in and out of games, not really even sure of his role this year, early on he ran out of defense, other times he sat on the wing/forward uninvolved.
    Much loved but to finish 13 in a B&F, playing every game and a veteran means something is missing.
    We don't need a FT Ruck, Tippett plays best rotating thru the middle, Sinclair is the perfect partner for him, mobile, big marking etc etc.
    Dont look at his GF performance cos A) Jetts finals have been nothing short of disgraceful B) Natinui and half WC stunk up that GF and only Sinclair's performance seems to get mentioned, Kennedy was goalless for Christ sake

    We need to remove some of these list-clogger ruckman we have now.
    Surely Derrickx's time is up. Nainsmith and Nankervis can fill in if Tippet or Sinclair are injured.
    We'll need to make a call on the two N's sometime soon.

    It was always a weird call that Dx got a contract extension, I guess they felt there was some further improvement

    We have already made a call on Naismith - he got a new three year contract in early September - so clearly we think he is good enough, and I expect he will see some time in seniors next year, as long as he can get his body right over the Summer.

    I can't comprehend why we extended Derricx contract like we did - I agree he is surplus to requirements for 2016.
