Some great posts in this thread. They looked stupid 4 hours ago and now they look a bit worse.
What, like saying I think he's a midfielder and not a forward?
Yep I'm sure ashamed of that one.

& to be fair he did have a drop in form! He is normally absolutely outstanding every single week.
Nothing wrong the thread at all. Dunno why people are getting all snippy.
Sadly true. Even though he is still consistently in our best, he often burns the ball and does dumb things.Selfish one way runner. If he is playing poorly offensively then you can sure as sh*t bet his direct opponent is best on ground or close to it. Was shocking last year burning his team mates as well as burning the ball when he kicked it.
This board doesn't allow any negativity surrounding Dangerfield though so it is probably 'the coaches fault'' or he has 'a niggle' or something
For a Board that doesn't allow negativity, there's plenty of it.Selfish one way runner.

Was in our best v Hawthorn R2.
As for finals, lets look more closely:
2019 2nd Semi win v WCE - average performance by Dangerfield
2019 PF loss to Richmond - Danger went missing in 2H
I reckon we would not have won last night but for Dangerfield. As I said in my MVP votes he was THE catalyst.
I cant agree with that - Paul Roos and other commentators were saying that PD had even elevated himself higher after that performance
His last qtr in that game was one of the best qtrs in a final ive seen from a Geel player - his overhead marking being a highlight - and he made his direct opponent Yeo ( who is a good player ) look like a total hack
Interesting to see where he ends up in latter stages of his career.
yeah there isFor a Board that doesn't allow negativity, there's plenty of it.
Let me ask you a question - has Geelong been better off with Dangerfield in the team or not? In other words, has the good outweighed the bad?
Of course he has been a positive. But the fact is we havnt won a flag with danger here and he is part of the reason by not turning up and butchering the ball in finals.For a Board that doesn't allow negativity, there's plenty of it.

He, Sel and GAJ have set such a high standard that they are scrutinised more if there is a mild form drop. Even last pm, GAJ was great, but I did not fit him into our votes. Watching the replay, he was nearly as good as Danger.& to be fair he did have a drop in form! He is normally absolutely outstanding every single week.

Lighten up. It's just poking fun of the timing.& to be fair he did have a drop in form! He is normally absolutely outstanding every single week.

I don't just blame danger. The club have let his ego run out of control and in fact encouraged it.
Funny that you list all the individual accolades he has won. If Danger had turned up more in finals we would have an extra flag.sorry but a massive load of crap.
Has won a brownlow medal MVP award club BF award and has stared in many games that have gotten us into top four finishes in the first place, then given his all in finals. Is far far from any reason we haven’t won a flag but a reason we where in a great position with a shot in the first place.
a champion of the club and deserves more respect than this from a geelong fan.

Do you think Dangerfield has played to his usual high standards in finals?because they only hand out awards for individual players. Even some of the most selfish players have premiership medallions so using that as some logic is crap.
Already been pointed out he was named in our best plenty of finals we have played on several occasions.
just the usual nonsense from a geelong pessimist point of view
im pretty sure that his av possesions, clearances and scores in PF as an average is higher than his HA season avs...Do you think Dangerfield has played to his usual high standards in finals?
2017 was a mixed bagim pretty sure that his av possesions, clearances and scores in PF as an average is higher than his HA season avs...
I know this was asserted before and the suggestion that in PF's he was no good just fell away.
I cant find the posts now but if geelong_crazy26 wants to look it up...
GO Catters
We’re precious aren’t we. Throw in the yearly doozie like Selwood finished and Hawkins irrelevant. Gee I hope opposition supporters don’t read these threads.Can we keep this "Danger down on form" guy, along with "struggling Ablett" in our side - both seemed to go ok
I remember his last game for the crows in a final was Unbelievable, especially for a player who knew it was his last.2017 was a mixed bag
Average (vs Richmond but had minimal impact as his disposal was poor/ his opponents were near bog)
Excellent (Sydney Bog)
Poor (Adelaide, towelled up by opposing midfielders)
Was shocking against Melbourne in the EF in 2018. Had 12 Clangers
Was good against Collingwood in 2019 QF
Was poor against West Coast SF
Dissappeared when the heat was on against Richmond in the PF
"The rest of the team played poorly as well" is not an excuse when he is our prime ball winner in the centre square. He has not had the impact on finals that is expected of a player of his talents
Edit: Had an excellent finals series in 2016 from a stats perspective. I should have acknowledged that
He hasn't. (Except a really good one for the Crows.) Don't care what the stats say. The easy shots missed at the start often set the scene and really hurt too.Do you think Dangerfield has played to his usual high standards in finals?
That's about spot on. Except I think that first Richmond final. He had no choice to do everything. Copped s**t for it cause of his kicking, but he was the only one who made us slightly competitive for a couple of quarters.2017 was a mixed bag
