Cant see him getting boo'd. Thinking of that, who gets boo'd this year?

Crowley
Mitchell
Hodge

Anyone else?

I suspect he will have a very good year - as long as he has been keeping fit over the last 2 months.
Some of the free agents Geelong picked up might cop a bit from their old clubs supporters.
 
You mean all the guys dumped by Geelong? What kind of idiot would begrudge someone who got sacked for looking for another job?

Oh yeah :)

I think they're referring to Danger being booed by adelaide supporters, etc...

Ah right. I totally mis-read that. Was thinking it was a reference to players leaving Geelong, not joining Geelong.

I dont think people should boo Danger for going to Geelong. He should have our sympathies. Especially since he took a pay cut to get there (if you do not include all the multi-million dollar pubs he will buy for $1 each).

Meant more guys like Selwood, Henderson, etc.

Who would ever boo Fyfe?

He doesn't belong on that list of scum you have mentioned. Loyal superb player and even better bloke.

Cause he has never to the best of my knowledge said anything publicly to quell the bullshit re his injury that Sammy supposedly contributed to.

If he has....I stand corrected.

Wow that is poor. Port basically pushed Burgoyne out the door.

ive never understood why so many people are ok with clubs dumping players yet get outraged when players choose to leave.

Club loyalty ends when the player no longer serves a purpose.
From a Port perspective I think they think he sooked it up because he didn't get named captain, played up the knee injury and named Hawks resulting in them getting strong armed at the trade table.

Doesn't matter that the captaincy likely never had anything to do with his decision (didn't become our captain), his knee was identified by their medicos as being rooted, and that they actually got a really good trade result but just drafted poorly.

Adelaide fans have every right to be upset at Gunston.

Port fans should show respect to Burgoyne. 157 games and a premiership. Plus they got two first round picks for losing him (only one was ours).

Why would he?

Noone has brought it up to him and he would hust add fuel to the fire if he brought it up himself.

Just because flog supporters and BF pests make it a thing doesn't mean he is to blame for it

No one will boo him.

He's better than a lot of players on AFL lists and deserves to be playing. He's even better than a handful or so on our list but we need to favour youth.

I'm pleased for him. Bombers will still struggle so it's all good.

I wont boo him because I wont be there
 
Those two words don't belong together.
I know, but similar to the Mark Williams project, I hope he gets paid handsomely to run about for that embarrassment, and at least gets a bit of joy out of it.

Why is that?
Objectively speaking he seemingly strung them along giving no indication he was looking to leave (other than not having signed on) and only informed the club when he called up from Victoria to tell them he wouldn't be signing on for next season and would like a trade to the mighty Hawks.

Reverse the situation and we'd be equally pissed off.

Though I will say I don't blame Gunston for handling it that way. They have proven to be a very vindictive club in recent times. Taking that award off him for leaving and shooting themselves in the foot out of spite due to Tippett walking out on them are just 2 examples that jump to mind.

He never seemed comfortable talking about it. It was Ross who was making all the comments about Mitchell causing injury after injury to various parts of Fyfe's body over months and months - from a single corked thigh.

I suspect Fyfe didnt enjoy having to agree with what was blatantly obviously a load of crap.

The same people who started booing Goodes for slide tackles, trips and general cheap shots that continually get overlooked because he is a supposedly great guy and one of the favourites to win the Brownlow! And that corkie that become a broken leg, please don't get me started!
