Retired #12: Mark Baguley - Will retire at seasons end - 27/8

[Zach Package]

his tan is glorious as well, just quietly

 

[Fear Boner]

baggers looked like a diffrent player last night kicking wise hope he keeps it up

 

[Old Campaigner]

His kicking was great, he looked composed and assured and had a number of long passes across the backline that really opened North up. Pretty good job on Harvey I thought.

 

[DONatron]

His commitment can not be questioned as he always puts his head over the ball and backs into traffic.

However he cost us dearly tonight, the handball to Roughead who popped it over his head was dumb, but dragging breust down who was closer to our change rooms than the goal when it wasn't needed, is literally the difference between winning and losing tonight. Dumb decision by Mark, which turned a tough shot into a certainty and we lose by 4 points.

You ******* kidding me? Those goals were clearly not his fault. The 50 was clearly not there, hell, I'm not even sure he marked it. And the handball wasn't a handball. He got stripped in a tackle and the diving ranga piece of s**t was lucky it fell into his breadbasket.

Bags is awesome, lol dolts who question him

 

[Ben the Gooner]

Toss a coin with Nick Smith at the moment for the best small defensive stopper in the comp.

I'd throw Lee Spurr in there too.

 

[Ben the Gooner]

Yeah, good shout. I'd rather Baggers with the ball than the other two though.

Steven Morris severely underrated in this position. Him and Baguley are the goods in this area. Spurr too.

lol........

 

[Darealrath]

Very hard to judge but he looks a bit quicker this season.

How much has Bags improved since 2013? He is defending very well which has never been an issue, but has greatly improved the attacking element of his game.

Having a lock down defender that can also attack from the last line has changed the dynamic of our backline I reckon. If they were to give the most improved award after 3 rounds this bloke would get it imo.

And then there's that tan!

And to think he was a skinny half forward when he first arrived at Frankston Park all those years ago.

Andrew Mackie and Brent Guerra were HFFers as well

 

[Kong]

I remember thinking or saying that this guy was effectively a younger/cheaper model of Slattery, and I meant that as a good thing.

I severely underestimated him; he almost never loses a contest, and he's on track to emulate Hibberd in an attacking sense.

Bloody hell I'm glad we didn't let him go to Carlton.

Damnit, now "He's gone full cyborg" is going to enter my football parlance.

There ya go.

No doubt young Mark agrees with you there.

 

[VelvetSledge]

Was fantastic last night, got into everything!

Very impressive.

 

[daffo]

solid... as always.

 

[Lord Nicholson]

I'll admit... only ever thought he'd be a decentish hack. He's actually pretty darn good.

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

Flies under the radar and goes about his business me likey a lot.

 

[Kakkle]

Mr Reliable. Tell him what to do, and he'll do it.

 

[Knight Ryders]

Playing great and I'd imagine him to be one of Bomber's favourites. Hard as nails, competitive beast, decent dash and skills improving all the time.
