Past #24: Sam Durdin - delisted after 21 NM games/1 NM goal - thanks Durds (drafted by Carlton in '22 MSD)

[marcmurphy3]

A few weeks ago in a Blues game, Brian Taylor asked if Durdin ever showed this potential while at the Roos

We have been linked as a club interested in him. Drafting him seems like an expensive way to keep the joke going lol

 

[Themanbun]

Been taking contested marks for fun in the SANFL lately. Carlton showing a lot of interest.

 

[marcmurphy3]

What were the main knocks on him that got him delisted?

Lacked a bit of intensity. We should have kept him around, he will be serviceable for you guys if you are having a tilt

He played a run in the back part of 2019 I think it was where he looked alright, might pay to revisit those games. Got only a slight look in in 2020 when the club was imploding.

Probably looked a bit laconic and the year he got delisted he was flying for grabs, getting in good positions but just not sticking them.

Good luck to him.

 

[Themanbun]

Onya Durds.

 

[archereleven]

Another reason to sink the slipper into the club if he goes on with it...

survived for as long as he did but this guy could only manage 4 seasons is something I’ll never understand.

 

[Usayed Givashe]

He’s a beautiful kick, no wonder he never got a go.

Not in front of goal. Career scoring tally is 1.5 (one goal, five behinds). I remember him missing a couple of sodas, too - choked in front of the big sticks.

I didn't mind Sam, but there is no way he could complain he wasn't given enough of a go to prove himself. He just didn't do enough on the field.

Probably something to do with the fact that Hansen was 3 times the player Durdin was.

I reckon he looked ok as a roaming CHF.

I spoke to him at that BnF we went to, he was very immature, knew he was in trouble then, no killer instinct, too nice.

I went back outside to have ciggies and a crack at Higgo’s mum.

How did you go?

Set to debut for the Blues against the Tigers.

Plays a blinder and the media ( we know who they are ) come after us, l'm going to be one really pi$$ed off Hojuman

Durds has developed muscle tone since being out of the North system.

For goodness sakes.

 

[giantroo]

Out for a month with a medial ligament injury.

 

[Devington]

That's some pretty s**t luck. I wouldn't go so far as to say I hoped he went gangbusters and made a mockery of our decision to delist him, but he definitely didn't deserve something like that.

After much research, and through the assistance of the aforementioned players and their families, it can be confirmed that Sam and Corey share the same three-time great grandfather – the English migrant Charles Durdin
