Oh god you weren't listening? He stated many times list clogger was NOT the term he wanted to use. He was just showing all the ruckmen out there who need to look at what Nat can do and then look at their own game.

And Jimmy is an awfully impressive specimen of a man.

Shoulda been Blake up on that list, he's notched up plenty of games already at the highest level and shown very little in other areas besides his tap work. Dawson hasn't had a genuine crack at the big time, it's extremely unfair to making those sort of negative comments about him. :thumbsdown:

Could not agree more and the footage of him in India was fantastic. Its sad that most of the news we get about footballers is when they stuff up it would be nice to hear about the good things players do more.

All Walls' lines are interchangeable, he'll pick on someone else soon. Probably Hunt.

Won't be long before he'll be trotting out the 'Harry Taylor takes more marks from opposition players than anyone else in the competition' line. Pretty much the only thing he ever said about Harley.

Still a bit rough on Simpson to be on Darcy's list - the kid has played just 1 game, & that was over in Subi. I'm sure hes well aware of the steps he needs to take to get a regular berth in the seniors down the track

Can't believe no one's savaged Robbie Walls yet. The perennial Walls bashers must be getting soft.:D
I dunno man, there's just a black, featureless silhouette in the middle of that panel every time I watch that show where Walls used to be... I guess either I've learned to block him out, or my retinas have detached :eek:

Jimmy seemed slightly more comfortable than he does on The Footy Show, but still not a polished media performer. :D

Let's his actions on the field do the talking.

Actually he was quite complimentary tonight. About Pods and said if he had a choice between Judd and Gaz he'd pick Gaz. He's there to sell papers and polemicists do that. As one newspaper editor said, the one thing I won't tolerate in my opinion writers is that they are boring. Boring, Walls is not.

Well like others said, Darce went to great pains to explain that he did not want that term used. But he did put Will Minson on the list from the Doggies.

Loved it when Jimmy said of Pods 'it's good to see good things happen to good people.' Clearly there's some love at the cattery :)

More importantly, good to see Jimmy devoting some of his off field time to charity work :thumbsu:

Walls generally infuriates me, although he did give a certain bloke the hero of the week award, so I suppose I'll tolerate him for once...

Walls has again seen the light, and was gushing about the Cats on 3aw during the game on Sunday, regarding them the greatest team to watch, and up there with the finest to ever play the game. When the Cats were piling on the goals during the third term, he was reminded that a certain record was still to be broken (the 'Brisbane' game). His groan was just icing on the cake to a beautiful afternoon.

I'm not sure why people complain about Walls and then continue to watch the show beyond an interesting interview or two?:confused:

Personally he drives me mental, so I'd prefer to remove my liver with a spoon than intentionally watch a show that is essentially Walls giving his opinion for an hour.

He's not the only 'expert' on the show. I watch the show but not because of him.
