    Worst player to win brownlow ever

    Being a Melbourne supporter i am going to throw one out of left field. When Brian Wilson won the brownlow in 1982 he was hard at it, in and under, no nonsense football who had a brilliant year (his courage that year caused him a couple of concussions - do not confuse his brownlow year with the...

    Tell me Why....

    methinks you are right.... i can't quite figure what point he is trying to make. i think he is going for "if my sister had balls she's be my brother" line of reasoning. its all good fun though ;)

    Tell me Why....

    nothing you have said is incorrect - but i am not even sure what you are argueing ? a question - go down the list and please illuminate me as to which on this list have "hung their hat on winning the rising star". not one - they have mostly all gone on to bigger and brighter things. holland...

    Tell me Why....

    ummm - poindexter...would care to enlighten me how saying "just because you are the rising star doesnt mean you will be a champion" and "winning the rising star doesnt mean that player will go on to be champions" - changes the meaning of what you were saying ? :rolleyes:

    Tell me Why....

    hmmm...you are selective. i will revisit your quote - "rising star is only short term glory......" buckley, scott, cousins, pickett, goodes, hasselby - - short term glory ? yes or no. You did say that not all rising stars go on to be champions - i agree with you but you must also...

    Tell me Why....

    not embarrassed at all... i shouldnt have included my aversion to using the word champion. you argument is bogus. You cited the list to say "just because you are the rising star you don't go on to become a champion". buckley ? cousins ? goodes ? hasselby ? scott has stood the test of times...

    Tell me Why....

    most ridiculous statement i have heard in a long time - going by this list winning the rising star means you probbably will go on to be a champion. The term champion is bandied about a little too frequently but nearly all the above footballers are top drawer A-grade quality footballers.

    Comarison of Lovett-Davey

    Sorry..having watched davey..your criticism that he makes bad mistakes is nonsense. If you wish to criticise that he goes missing for too much of a game i will agree but his conversion when he gets the ball to the player or the goal is exceptional. The problem is that get doesnt get the ball...

    Brad Miller offered 2 weeks. Unfair?

    He's trying to be like Jon Brown from his younger days. Wants to wise up a bit. couldnt agree more. Miller doesnt take "girls blouse option". Miller doesnt take cheap shot. His game is to apply physical pressure like a jonothan brown and everyone is learning hard lessons that in the...

    Brad Miller offered 2 weeks. Unfair?

    Do you have any idea what a sniper is ???? - i don't think that "snipers" even exist in todays football as there is much too much video scrutiny. A sniper in football is someone who surreptitiously takes out opposition. Dale Weightman made a career out of it. Jimmy Buckley and roger merret...

    2nd mark of the year contender

    i am also a demon supporter but would like to add my 3 cheers for Hird. It bemuses to read the rubbish opposition supporters sprout on here about him. ( especially the soft" jibe - he is fearless to a fault) He is a champion in every sense of the word ( and i dislike him intensely when he...
