Liam was at Melbourne and played a couple games of first grade,he's in his element over in England because
its about as impressive as reserves in NSW,i think that he suffers from a complete lack of any
skill whatsoever but he is ex Melbourne so maybe thats where the problem lies,he's more of a halfback anyway
so Cronk would need to run A LOT more
Keiran came through the ranks in NYC at Manly and is a north shore junior so South Sydney would
be closer than anyone else because of their relationship with Norths,but IMO they can go fornicate
with a deceased equine,he's ours and a future captain,possibly by himself but personally i'd like to
see him share captaincy with DCE due to him being awesome,haircut and all
Maloney is closer to a livewire lock than a half of any kind and he gifted us a premiership with his
goalkicking so im a big fan,at least he can tackle and i think he has matured into a player who would
do good at Melbourne,if i was recruiting for melbourne i'd have a look at a Travis Burns,your team needs
a good dose of douchebaggery,i know you have Cameron Smith and Slater but i think that the side could
be lifted with a little more bravado,i have big raps on him for his heart and while he isn't the archetypal
half as far as kicking skills go he more than makes up for it in defensive aggression and pride,plus with Smith
and Cronk your covered for kickers anyway
Every side needs a good dose of prick,we have Gift,Skivvy and Choc but they are absolute professionals at
the niggle and better than anything else all opposition fans have beef with them making them all the more
delectable,i think every team with the chance to succeed needs a few absolute pricks and thats something you
lost when Blair met his Kerry Packer
