Toast Brad Sheppard - 150th

[avishka5]

Shep is set to play his 150th this weekend and also becomes a life member.

I couldn’t have imagined this happening 4 years ago.

 

[squashface]

One of the first picked these days and has been almost our most reliable defender for several years now.

He's come a long way from the skinny kid who couldn't lock down a position.

 

[avishka5]

One thing that Aanboyed was Derm saying that Shep is an excellent Third man in type player but not a great 1v1.

Seen Shep concede height and weight on so many occasions and come out on top.

 

[DickDunn]

Arguably our most reliable and handsome player. Can’t wait for Sheptember

 

[DanWCE]

On ya Shepp

 

[MaxHunt]

Another additional to the list of top quality no.7 draft picks

 

[Balls In]

I thought he showed loads from the get go. Went through the ringer from years 2-4 them blossomed. Synergies with Sheed i reckon.

 

[HoneyBadger35]

Best player taken by a WA team in his year, not close.

 

[avishka5]

Simmo has done wonders for his career. Gave him a clear role in defence

59 games in his first 5 seasons.
90 games between 2015 and now.

Best player taken by a WA team in his year, not close.

 

[onebillsdrive]

Can't believe he has played 150 games......I must be getting older

 

[omgfridge]

Legend. Such a consistent unheralded player.

 

[Monocle]

Good on him for that achievement and 150 getting him life membership.

I was one who had doubts early in the piece that he would make it let alone make it to 150 games.

Also agree that Simpson has been good for his career and his development.

At 27 years of age he still has a decent amount of fuel left in the tank , good chance to make 250.

 

[RookiePick]

This thread is the perfect testament to Shep. Unassuming, understated.

Congrat's Brad! May your man-goo deliver us plenty of likely father-sons in due course.

 

[Spoon_Man]

Shep > Mckenna... there i said it.

 

[Biggie]

Fantastic effort from Sheppard

Thought he showed a lot early but then fell away

No he’s a no nonsense defender, who I feel confident in when he is one on one

 

[arfadunger]

Congratulations to Shep, great effort! Gotta say that 150 for him has certainly snuck up on me.

 

[Doughboy]

What a shit player sponsor I am...

Well done Shep!

 

[flamingEMBERS]

Shep > Mckenna... there i said it.

wow!

 

[flamingEMBERS]

Big ups to Shep!

May have yelled at derm for this and called him some expletives

 

[Dark Sharks]

He should celebrate the occasion by having the football clean bowl him during a crucial moment vs the dockers.

 

[former lurker]

Congrats on reaching 150 and becoming a life member of our great club Brad. Thanks for your great service.

Shep > Mckenna... there i said it.

I have to accept that we all have our own opinions, but not even in the same league.

 

[RookiePick]

You are a bad man.

 

[SloppyJoe]

Excellent improvement in recent years after a rocky start. Probably our most underrated player outside of the club/fans.

He started the season like a house on fire and even though he hasn't maintained that level, he's still been damned good.
