Andrew Gilham

[juDDa]

Thanks for that Gilla... i mean 'Dackers10' . Did u join bigfooty just to talk about urself... i mean Andrew Gilham. U have two posts and their both in realtion to Andrew.

alright now idiot..got anything better to do then talk ******** like that? u must have plently of spare time... anyway i saw saw Gilham play heaps of games last year and to be honest didn't think he was the best of the chargers players at the club. however, he definately showed heaps of potential. I noticed he has very strong hands and is very good at spoiling. at times his foot skills can let him down as well as his fitness side of the game. hopefully he can get a kick this year down at Port and give himself a solid chance at getting drafted come November...apparently he's not a bad kick boxer either and may be thinking of persuing that instead of football..

These last few posts made me think of the Simpsons - "Bob Dole thinks you should vote for Bob Dole. Bob Dole likes hearing his own name. Bob Dole. BOB DOLE!!"

What ******** would that be? 'Dackers 10' who i was quoting still only has 2 posts to his name and both in relation to Andrew Gilham. To me, that is a little strange, to you perhaps that is normal, i'm not sure.

Why do u analyse Gilham's game as though i was critical of his as a player? Perhaps if u read some of the other Andrew Gilham threads u will notice that i provide a more positive and accurate analysis of his game that u endeavour to do.

So next time, before u try and retort a sound argument/post perhaps u should do some research of get some help from your mum or dad.

i know andrew's game a lot better than you do mate! i went to almost every charger game last year...why don't you analyse his game?? i'd like to hear your thoughts...the only thing you have done so far in this thread is post smart ass comments! your an idiot!

I got a great view of Gilhams game last year, he looks better than some of the hacks on the Collingwood list, but as Wellsy said, I dont know where you get the idea he was bagging Gilhams as a player, he was ribbing a poster about if he was Gilham.

Cant you understand that?

Ouch. Why do u care so much? I just think that its odd that this is the 3rd aptly titled 'Andrew Gilham' thread in the last few months. Interestingly, this one was started by someone who has 2 posts to date, and conveniently both of which are in this thread.

I have analysed his game in the previous threads:

Gilham could and should go anywhere after pick 40. He seems to have more natural ability than Stephen (his brother) and would be a great acquisition at any club. He does love to talk the talk but he is very good at it and it can be very effective in frustrating his opposition, he also has the ability to back it up on and off the field (he is devout amateur kickboxer).

Although it is a long way off, if his football allows him to he could be a franchise player for a club. He would handle himself very well on the footyshow and would be equally entertaining. I'm quite confident he would be able to assume a comedic role in 'The House of Bulger' and he would also relish the end of season review, which would afford him the opportunity to convey his dancing talents.

As for his football, IMO his height allows him to play tall and small rather than neither. He could play KP but is equally adept on the ground. He has good pace for his size a good leap and his greatest attribute is his excellent pair of hands.

The thing that separates Gilham from his physially equivalent competitors is his football brain. Gilham has an uncanny knack of reading the play and getting the football. His football brain allows him the opportunity to adapt to conditions and various positions and he is more than able to play on the ball, up forward, down back or a kick behind play.

I have no doubt that Gilla (aka Rockstar) will make it in the AFL if he wants to, irrespective of the outcome of the draft.

Good Luck Gill,
Wellsy!

Fairly sound analysis, dare I say it, alot more comprehensive than your attempts.

PS In the words of Andrew Gilham: "If you come to hit me, don't miss!"

hmmm not bad i must say... i just dont see why you would think gilli would write that..if u know so much about him u could see that he's not the kind of kid to do something like that about himself..oh well

 

[hahaha]

Gilla is one of the most talked about yet to be drafted players in the history of the sport.

Oh and if you ever need to get into any inner-city nightclub in Melbourne just mention you're mates with him.
