Surely this article must be wrong. They reckon Freo and the Bulldogs are chasing Hall. It then says that his is looking to go to a top four side. Thats flattering but we were bottom four this year...top four next year....without Barry Hall.

You'd think not. A quick reference at the top of the article and not much after that.

I'm pretty sure Victorians looking for a story just throw the word Fremantle in to the mix because it sounds plausible to their audience, and no one is around to pick them up on it.

It's like blaming something on the gypsies.

darned pikies

Laughable isn't it. Probably just Hall's manager trying to pump up his value

Freo have been thrown into, then marooned in that article - like a lost child in a shopping mall.

Barry wearing Purple and having a BBBBH brain snap could cause the MRP to explode ....

Probably the only reason he wants to some here is to be closer to his mate staker.....they can catch up in Northbridge on off weekends!

Easy, Tigers.

The article is by Nikki Tugwell.

Don't know her (might want to), but if she keeps up that standard, she'll get a reputation.

brilliant reference guy!

One of my favourites, Barbs....

and it fits in so many ways, eh?

This is a joke right? Run up to April 1st 2009?

Nikki Tugwell ? Is there an Austin Powers 4 being filmed ?

Seriously though, what a complete and utter media beat up.

It'll never happen (I hope).

I reckon Barry Hall in the purple along side my brown dog in the pocket would be a good look.

Darth, that role's been taken by Tiffany Cherry.

Would be ok but only to wheel him out for Derbys.
That way being suspended for half the season for whacking Eagles players would not effect the remainder of his career.
Would be funny to watch Staker and Selwood &^%&^ themselves as Des and Baz took to the feild each Derby
Call me old fashion but bring back the biff
