The mods just deleted the Vickery thread on the main board.
Only read a bit of it but there were hawks wanting him to go to jail. Sums them up really--going gets tough, they desert him.
We all bag our players sometimes but do any of us wish jail time on Johnson or Bennell?
Pea hearted bandwagoners

Oh yes, he's a massive knob and 100% in it for his image
Got no time for Green at all. Was a massively overrated fighter who was pumped up by the Aussie media. His biggest claim to fame was beating a geriatric Roy Jones Junior who was way past his prime at that point.

His comments about Bugg were idiotic but not at all surprising, as he's not the smartest bloke in the world and has some dubious connections with the lads who were seen in his dressing room before his fight with mundine earlier this year. The state government or whoever did that one punch campaign should've done their research before hiring him to do it.

I hope that the stays in jail. Guys an absolute menace to society and him wearing purple for a few games shouldn't change your view on it.
Yeah i dont give him a free pass or anything for what he did, but the point is not to try him in the court of bigfooty

But you must have an opinion?
I wasn't overly thrilled when we picked him up because of his past conviction. I found it hard to cheer for a bloke who robbed a defenseless person at knife point and caused her so much trauma.
Do I wish him ill will? No, I hope he gets his life on track but if he doesn't more than happy he is in jail.
Am I happy he's left Freo? - most certainly.

I guess I thought he would change, a la Andrew Krakouer
Hindsight is everything tho

Luck play no part in it . You got three chances if you blew it all, is your problem not BF .
I appreciate your English (as a second language) is far better than my few Spanish and Indo words, but I have no idea what you are referring to. Sorry.

1. subiaco or peel is my mistake in telling the story not his.

2. Whatever floats your perception bias boat...
It looks like you got the year mixed up rather than the teams.

In 2014 Menegola was on Fremantle's list and played 14 games for Peel where he average 19.3 disposals 0.3 goals and 2.7 tackles.
Fremantle delisted him at the end of 2014 and no other team decided to pick him up in any of the drafts.

In 2015 Menegola played exclusively for Subiaco, and played 14 games where he averaged 27.3 disposals 1.5 goals and 4.1 tackles.
At the end of 2015 Geelong drafted him with pick 66 in the main draft.

So you're saying that after he was dropped for being average he had a year in the WAFL to have one last crack at the AFL and went full bunta and the Cats picked him up?

Mzungu after being injured has worked his way back into the GWS lineup.

Deboer has entrenched himself in the 18 on the field and now the Gu is named in the 22 on the bench.

Good work lads!
If you can find it, Leon Cameron mentioned both of them in the pre-season about how professional and well-spoken they were. Zu was even in the round 1 team for the giants and apparently was a great trainer for the younger guys. It's great to see them doing well in a team supposedly full of young talent.

We do have talent but it's bullshit to think a balanced side doesn't need experience and hard nosed no-nonsense players as well.
Great Muzungu us back in the one's, for me he did well at NEAFL level as well. Currently our reserves are a lot of under 18 academy players and his onfield leadership is obvious.
