Delisted #29: Alwyn Davey- Not offered a contract for 2014

[Zach Package]

Chalk up another 4 for the James Hird Academy. Alwyn III, Jayden, Alijah and Cruz.

The oldest 3 are hilarious, i've seen them horsing around VFL games running amok, against bendigo they had to recall a ball up because one of them kicked a ball onto the field.

I've seen the oldest three as well with ball in hand.

Will Davey survive the cut at years end now that he has cracked 100 games?

If we weren't barred from the first 2 rounds I reckon he was gone, now that we are he may get one more year.

He's the kind of player you can comfortably hold on your list and expect ten games from - I say keep.

Agree given our situation - looking at a list turnover point of view we lose two elder statesmen this year in Hille and nlm. Next year fletcher and Davey go.

 

[windyhill]

So ******* happy.
1. He's a favourite of mine
2. Been praying he got to the Hundj for obvious selfish reasons.

Did big Deano have any sons?

1 daughter

Congrats Alwyn on 4 sons......erm, I mean 100 games!!! At his best is electric!

 

[Eleven 38]

Surely will get another year now, he will be better than an 8th round pick now that we've lost our first 2...

I think no.

Davey has done his job.

How old are they? Please tell me the mother is taller than Froggy and is good overhead...

Alwyn Davey has special cheer squad

But the strongest show of support will come from his kids, who watch their dad from the sidelines every week.
Twins Alwyn Jr and Jayden, 8, and Alijah, 5, rate their football father No.1 - with a few exceptions.

Long may there be many Long's Davey's and even Jetta's at the EFC...Plus plenty of Daniher's, Watson's and Neagle's, is it too much to ask for one more Vanderhaar as well???

Wait. The HS printed a positive article about Essendon?

What is this alternate universe and how did I get here?

That was back in 2012

 

[gO_bOmBeRz]

Watching some of his highlights on YouTube last night. Bloody hell, he was ******* amazing before he injured himself. Terrorised opposition defenders.

 

[Shermy]

100 games, booyah.

 

[Rack Watts]

Biggest 100 games ever?
(bar Winders )

Good call... Freaking awesome highlights. I'm still really cut at him getting dropped this year. Must have really been a technical/team aspect that caused that to happen because he still looked dangerous to me and was getting goals...

 

[yaco55]

It's definitely time for him to move on - Has achieved his goal of reaching 100 games - Well done, Froggy.

 

[rines]

I agree Yaco.. the key was 100 games.. and he got that.. but CONSIDERING the sanctions.. I think maybe you could get him to roll around again next year..

Likely to be 'back up' only.. sort of like NLM this year.. he might give us 2-4 games and fill a role when required.

Definitely wasn't the worst on the field last night...

 

[Kakkle]

I'd retain him for one more year. Maybe even rookie list him if need be. Don't expect him to get any game time in 2014, but he'll be on the list if need be.
