I Love Chance Bateman

[Lunchlady Doris]

"im not biast" but then you pull this crap out? laughable, You fool.

This thread is about Bateman right? The bloke is a serial cheat, and ducks his head whenever he is tackled.

Favourite Non Eagle.
Came from my hometown, my family watched him grow up from knee high, so to see him play well is excellent.

For all that is said over his looks, the boy just does not stop running, that goal in the 2nd quarter this week wasn't bad either.

Killed Dal Santo (who everyone seems to forget was in pretty good form), and hurt him the other way.

Massive chance for the Norm Smith, if he has a good game, the Hawks generally win.

Ablett is the cheat, gets flung around 720 degree's and doesn't get pinged for holding the ball???? therefore Ablett and Chapman are serial cheaters, disgracefull both of them

You have got to be kidding, this kid gets talked up so much he makes Dale Thomas look underrated. I thought the commentators were actually going to cream their pants on air on Saturday night.

Good player, but definitely not underrated. Hawthorn have got some underrated players, but he is not one of them.

Kid is 27 ya tugboat.

Not his fault the umpire doesn't pay a free kick. What do you want him to do, stop and give the tackler the footy?

Wow a footballer who ducks his head when he is about to be tackled.

Never thought I would see the day.

Bateman is a gun.

York?

Yep.

.

Under your analogy Doris, he does is all the time so therefore he is a cheat...

No, Bateman deliberately runs headfirst into tacklers in an attempt to draw a free kick. Ablett gets tackled and disposes of the ball.

Chance is a long way off A list, overrated due to his good work ethic. Runs hard, but his kicking is average. Doesn't get enough of it either.

You've been sniffing too much 'self raising flour' have a look at his efficiency before posting such outlandish garbage.....mark my words he'll give any of your players a run for their money and probably over the day win out

Bateman's idiotic hairdo emphasises the fact that he does tend to duck into tackles. He's a good player but he definitely does this (as, I am prepared to concede, Chapman does from time to time).

Come on Kip, plenty on your own board acknowledge he's not a great kick.

In the words of a wise John McEnroe, you cannot be serious!

 

[sliden]

so what if he ducks his head? it works for him, a good plan if u ask me..
Shows he has the smarts to see what is and isnt beneficial..
Gun player, i wish he had kept the hair.. .but who cares, im positive it wont change the outstanding player he is

 

[Stakerz]

Needs a haircut, but yeah he is a gun.

Still needs a haircut.

 

[Hurleys Hawkers]

Loved the hair.
