Jimi are your eyes painted on? Is bigfooty available in brail?

Every player has had times where they may not have gone as hard as they should, generally, happens when players are about to be collected by a charging 100kg monster and are carrying injuries. Any one that plays the game is tough.

Definitely tougher than someone calling them squibs on a forum.

Definitely tougher than the lot of us.

I suppose if a little guy like Eddie Betts tried to take on a monster like Lee Leroy Brown (baddest man in the whole damn town, badder than old King Kong, meaner than a junkyard dog), he'd be carried off on a stretcher into history.

I'm speaking in relative terms.

It's like saying nobody on Bigfooty should make any negative comments about anything to do with any players game because they are all better footballers than us.

Of course they are all tougher than me. I'd be scared shitless. Mind you I did once rip the cask of my broken arm 2.5 weeks before it was due to come off so I could play a grand final.

We lost and I'm still paying for it to this day (pain wise)

It's not all about size. Size of the heart maybe? Dale Thomas is as courageous as they come and he is a weedy dude. Dean Laidley was one of the most courageous players you will ever see and there was nothing to him.

I just take offense to one of the above players. Brent Prismall. Twice broken arms at Geelong, and a season ending break would almost end a career. He needs to keep playing to cement a spot on the list. Same goes for Alwyn who has broke his arm a couple of times. You pointed out Prismall didn't go hard enough twice against Carlton. He may have been carrying an injury. Stants probably had some reservations on Saturday night coming from having a broken shoulder last time he went back and booed off the field.

Plus they have to make split decisions with knowledge of their capabilities. Generally it's a reaction to a trauma that has happened previously and it's human nature to learn from what hurt you.

I think Its tougher to gut run then it is to take a hit, anyone can take a hit, and Prismall runs as much as anyone, therefore labeling him a squib, in my eyes is the opposite. Same goes for stants. No matter the score, these two are running.

13 tackles and 7/21 of your possessions contested don't show squib to me either.

Even Glenn archer has admitted pulling out of a contest. Every player does from time to time.

 

[windyhill]

FFS.. it was against RICHMOND


Lets see what he does against Ade at AAMI and then against Carltoon and the Pies.

Be looking forward to bumping this pathetic Stanton love-fest of a thread..

I`ll bump it for you baby

 

[Kyptastic]

Another nine tackles tonight, has become a player who runs hard both ways now.

 

[windyhill]

He`ll be in the best for 2, if not 3/3 of the games.

I`ll even do it twice !

 

[Skeeta Olly]

Instrumental in keeping us in the game. Can't wait to see him next year after another pre-season under the new coaching panel.

 

[Call Me Cake]

Great game from Stants.

 

[Donakebab]

Shane to do a no show...

 

[daffo]

Another great game by Stanton. If Heppell doesn't win the B/F, Stants would be a good chance for it.

 

[Ben the Gooner]

Morning Shane.

 

[Childish Gambino]

Another good game from Brent.

Haters still gonna hate?

 

[Towno78]

Great game, amongst the rare few that showed up in the first half

 

[citizen-erased]

Considering the amount of hospital handballs he receives, im surprised he isnt dead yet.
Easily our B&F this year and our best 4 quarter player.

 

[theboxmike]

Great game, but yes to above poster i don't know weather he calls for it or we just do stupid handpasses?

He seems to get caught on the end of our no hope passes.

 

[Kong]

Shane Hird, where are you buddy?

You still haven't done that list of pros and cons.

For the Hawthorn, Geelong, Richmond or Adelaide games.

Is that because he's been one of our best in all of those?

Calling Shane Hird.

 

[Darealrath]

Business as usual for Stants. One of our best and worked tirelessly all night.

 

[table tennis]

Police "Missing Persons" report has been put out for Shane Hird and Trout from Woodend.

[Shane Hird]

Jesus Christ you lot are deluded.


But as they say..love is blind.


Love for an arm waving sheepdog.

 

[Phone]

was about the only non-defender who could hold his head up after the first quarter

 

[Donakebab]

Jesus Christ you ##### are deluded.


But as they say..love is blind.


Love for an arm waving sheepdog.

You're a towel.

 

[Kong]

Jesus Christ you lot are deluded.


But as they say..love is blind.


Love for an arm waving sheepdog.

You've mentioned the arm waving thing before; I admit that it does make him look a little.. magoo, but I'm beginning to think that's why you don't rate him as a player.
