Patrick Dangerfield - potential GOAT?

[RCAB]

One bad grand final shouldn't severely tarnish Dangerfield's legacy, particularly at his age and he played very well in a prelim this year.

One? Two bad grand finals.

Also Dunkley played with an injured ankle and still performed when it mattered.

 

[My Tilly]

It's not one bad Grand Final. it's two he is the captain meant be leading from the front.

It doesn't tarnish his legacy in terms of being a great of the game but he is not in the GOAT discussion. which is what some ppl were pushing.

He played a great prelim but didn't back it up, the job wasn't done.

Are there really people suggesting he is in the GOAT conversation though?
I think they are pushing for the best of his generation.

He's always been a level below the all-time champions of the game.

Kane Cornes was saying during the week he should be a "Legend" in the Hall of Fame lol

 

[Ian Dunross]

Fluffed his lines and tarnished his otherwise stellar reputation. Still one of the greats but absolutely anonymous yesterday on the biggest stage.

 

[Aristotle Pickett the3rd]

He was injured or had gastro so I don't judge him on that performance.

Any chance I get to discuss the AFL legends wing I'll take it. From this era, Buddy and GAJ get in. There's this step down to guys like Danger, Dusty, Fyfe, Judd where if one of them where to get in, there's a case to be made for all of them. All Hall of Famers, yes, Legends? Probably not. Of them though I the Dusty is a small small chance. That's obviously with a Richmond bias though.

Fwiw, I don't think Danger gets in. He would need to go into coaching and win a couple of flag to have a really compelling case to get in.

He has played in 3 Grand Finals, that's a big sample size - he has been quiet in 2 out of 3 of them.

Why didn't Geelong bring Cotchin in to mentor Patrick Dangerfield, it would've been handy for Patrick to be advised and supported by someone like Cotchin?

Quiet understates it a fair bit. Leon Davis/Gary Rohan levels of invisibility.

 

[Corn Cobbers]

Crook? Apparently gastro? ...and drinking coffee prior. Not the best medicine for gastro.

It's a total lie, you simply cannot drink coffee while suffering from gastro

He just flopped

Cats just weren't up to it, Brisbane miles better

He took out his own best player and spoiled Dempsey's mark of the day attempt, those were the only times I noticed him

Even when the game was close and even, Danger couldn't get into the game. ppl will make any excuse for why he had a bad day.

How could you possibly miss the out on the full he put onto platform 2 at Jolimont Station?

Charged down the wing, inspirational

 

[Fadge]

I'll give you great credit for introducing the term non-binary into the discussion about Norm Smith judging.

But you're trolling a football discussion. Again.

Take it to the bay stinky

Huh?

How is it a troll to dare suggest that the second best player in a specific Grand Final was better performed that the 'best' player in other Grand Finals?

this bloke probably sums up most of dangerfield's performances finals appearances pretty much spot on

Geelong could've used someone like Gennaro yesterday.

 

[Andyy]

Nobody would say he isn't a jet, but really this guy needs to retire.

He's jagged a few goals and had a blinder in the PF, but you can see cracks all over. It's time to hang them up.


I remember Cotchin being quite stuffed in 2023 but he still had some very good games and won a couple of Brownie votes too.


I work with older people in hospital and I like to tell them and their families you don't need to be stretchered into a nursing home, may as well walk in before you're completely F'd and that's all people remember before you were tapped on the shoulder.

Comparing Cotchin in his twilight years to Danger.

Oh boy.

I guess based on this bolded part, Danger we'll retire when he feels like it.

 

[Meteoric Rise]

Anyone know how to access Danger's out on the full stats in finals?

 

[Morro]

Seriously good player, but these types of games really hurt your rep, people dont forget when you fail on the big stage.

 

[Daka]

So many Richmond nuffies!

Where's that moron who said he's a nurse and demands to see Geelong's medical documents

And your not a Geelong nuffie?

 

[Daka]

You pricks wish harm upon players.

?
