I like the idea of Simpson as well.

Simpson in the forward line reeks of Curnow in the forward line. If Simmo should have retired 2 years ago (as I believe), I see no reason why a move to the forward line would change that.
NO DEAL !!

I agree he shouldn't be playing but if he has to then the forward line is my preference.

I guess a mistake in the forward line doesn't cost you a goal. So from that point of view, it's fair enough. But it just seems to be a move to where he will be less risk, which is not a great way of building a team IMO.

Simpson plays well enough every week and he isnt exactly keeping a kid who has a bright future out.
It's not like hes like hodge who has probably played one year too many.

Maybe Simmo wouldn't have played on this year if Willo or Doc had been fit? He's basically holding the fort.
