Does anyone have an interest in Gallen's fight?
How will he go?
Part of me wants him to do well but another part of me wants to see him get touched up.

"Let me add one thing too: I do not believe in "depth" signings. "Depth" should be your youth products.
You sign players for your top 17. Maybe now for you top 19 if you want a specialist like a backup half.

The injury ward
Given the raft of injuries across first grade I thought it best to collate it all together to see where we currently sit. Have sorted it into positions. 1. Iongi 2. Twidle 3. Russell (maybe back this week) 4. Samrani 5. Simonsson 6. Pezet 7. (Moses…

Love how you signed off at the end,almost like a real journalist.Cute.
Will you watch the fights Eggy?
I wish I was going, I think it would be a good night.
I do love a good fight.Hunt looks like he's copped a pounding in the ring before,and after a few ass whoopings you get to when you either doing it for love or for the money ,and Hunt to me looks like a bloke who loves a good pounding.
I expect Gallen to be knocked out. Hunt is a serious fighter. He may not have the chin he once did but the dude has crazy knockout power. Hunt just threw a punch at Gal at their presser today. Gal has never really fought a serious fighter, the majority of his fights have been against footy players. Hunt has 20 years of fighting experience behind him. And it's not like Gallen has a lot of rounds to tire Hunt out. It's only a six round fight so that probably suits Hunt.
Yes Hunt can throw them, some look like they don't connect much but gee the opponents feel it.
Will make for an interesting watch nonetheless.
I figure Gallen is going to try and keep him at a distance but Hunt is a brawler, likes to get in tight and throw them. Gallen has relied on his fitness and staying on the outside to win previous fights. That may not work with Hunt whose experience will probably allow him to close distance more efficiently.
Gallen will not see the walk up knockout that Hunt is famous for.
who won this fight?
