Retired #23: David Myers - Retiring at the end of the season - 20/8

[JayJ20]

Shouldn't play again. Provides us with nothing.

 

[Vindicater]

He played as a midfielder in that game.

He had the worst stats of anybody on the ground...

******* cooked but will play every game he is healthy because he is a 'leader'

Langord does not solve the issue. Myers is done and dusted. There is no argument there but Langford is not the answer either. He will never be the inside midfielder answer. He is not physical enough and not quick decision maker. He needs to go back to playing flank / wing. Right now I am hanging my hat on Mynott developing into the answer. Has shown improvement in the VFL this year and is getting close to the run of form week in and week out needed to get his chance.

i don’t want to upset anyone by saying this, because I think David is a fine individual and has value and worth both as a person and as a footballer, but i’m on the anyone but Myers train.

Parish? Thoughts?

Leadership group.

Would be best utilized in the vfl passing on his knowledge to our youth.

Agree, let him protect the kids in the VFL

And so the David Myers saga rolls on.

I’m getting to the stage I can’t watch us any longer whilst the likes of this hack & Clarke are selected.

Wtf did he offer last night? A pitiful 10 disp, all of which were hideous & when we finally call on him for the only asset he offers, he barely roosts it 50m.

Put him in the bin ffs worsfold!! Enough’s enough!!

Langford wouldn't have got that last kick. David reads the game so well, knew where to be to get the mark.

 

[Blood Bomber]

Can take his leadership wink and giggles to the vfl permanently thanks.

 

[Doss]

I'm of the view that David has run his race and needs to be jettisoned to the twos, permanently.

But if people actually seriously care that he'd dare wink before having that shot last night, then they need to find better things to get annoyed about.

I'd prefer him to give an air of confidence

Can you call my wife and tell her to go and do better things. Cheers

PM her number

PM her number

Do you enjoy being told you're wrong?

 

[Doss]

Bonce is used to it.

 

[madrigal]

I'd prefer him to give an air of confidence

I'd prefer him to give an air of competence.

I'm not listening to her.

 

[Donakebab]

I'd prefer him to give an air of competence.

I'd prefer him to give an air of disappearance.

 

[Darealrath]

Anyone else remember when Roos took over at Melbourne there were reports he really wanted Myers and Colyer? I think the club considered him untouchable at the time...

 

[RedmanWasHere]

Why wasn't Myers delisted circa 2011-12?

May've had a player or 2 or 3 replace him in that time.

Can't delist everyone at once, and at his peak he was an above average player. Certainly not first on the chopping block.

I think he's thinking this is for everyone on Big Footy they're gonna love this !!
After all the support and great worthwhile comments its just given him such confidence and self worth as a human being . After all he's just living the dream isn't he ??

 

[I Remember Bluey]

On a side note, JD is our only player who would have have been a chance to get the distance.
