Universal Love BUDDY 250

[caesar88]

Geez the swans site went all out with the audio on the 360 Buddy interview. Anyone else feel hard of hearing trying to catch some of it ?

 

[The Swans Blog]

70m bomb vs Hawks is always a nice one.

 

[SwansProudly]

All of his goals but especially as Lance now plays for the Sydney Swans

 

[V9x18]

1- Collingwood 2011 PF

2- RD - 1 2016. Coming back from a terrible end of 2015 and kicking a goal in the first 30 seconds against the magpies at the SCG. You knew straight away that Buddy was back

Last Friday night in the final quarter is still able to perform at his best in game 249.

Just quietly kicked 8 goals in the first two games and he does so much more that doesn't get mentioned as often.

The last goal in those port highlights is something no one should be able to do, yet he did it twice last week.

I'm so happy I get to enjoy him as a Swan these days.

Sometimes I still can't believe he plays for us.

just wanted jump in and add a big congrats to Bud on the 250 from a Hawks man.
was shattered when he left, but i understand the whole business side of things in footy.
still love watching him play, and found myself just laughing at the TV in that last quarter last Friday night watching him do his thing.
the best goals ive ever seen him kick live-
- his first against richmond. pretty cool to say i was there for his 1st ever
- the hooker chase
- EF winner vs Adelaide
- the bomb against you guys in the 2012 GF
- banana along the ground vs Pies in PF 2011
- his 12th of the 13 against North

And as much as it hurts, his bomb against us last year was stupid good too!

Should get to a 1000 in a few years and, sorry to say, really hope its in Melbourne so i can be there to see it!

Hope he tears collingwood a new one on Friday night.

 

[Punts]

I'm still remember the night in 13 when buddy kicked 8 against the dons at Etihad and I said geez buddy would be awesome to get
Got howelled down for it on I here but has turned out bloody well imo

My wish came true

Buddy 2.0 (with improved marking), Reid 2.0 (without injuries) and Cameron 1.0

That's a forward line to be afraid of.

 

[Jewelsbon]

My favourite Buddy moment?

The moment he signed on to become a Swan!

Yep, and an average of ~115 AFL games each. Prime.

I never knew Buddy wasn't always #23 for Hawthorn...looks so weird in a different number.

 

[Tuco]

Any goal which starts with him running around the boundary on the wing and kicking it from 60m.

So I guess we only have about 20 goals to choose from.

The guy is simply unique.

Saw the Hooker chase while overseas. Just reminded me what an amazing sport we follow downunder.

Hmm. Hooker chase. Something off colour about those two words...

first game was against us wasnt it?

 

[MC Bad Genius]

The only thing I hope is that we see him with a premiership medal around his neck in the red and white. Not that I think recruiting him wouldn't be worth it, but that he'll always be remembered as a Hawk otherwise!

Love the big fella!

The question is - was it getting Buddy or the Hawks, the VFL and GWS losing Buddy that made it so sweet?

A premiership medal would be nice.

Would love to see him with double figures at least once in the red and white. Pretty sure plugger was the last to do that.

Yeh and apparently he lined up on Goodesy at stages too...no recollection of that!

To be fair Nick Davis' bag of 4 in the semi was worth 12.

 

[caesar88]

Not sure if I want Buddy to kick his 800th goal this week, in his 250th, or next week, when I'll be there in person to witness it.

(Oh what a problem to have..

... Surely you want him to kick a bag every week mate?

I'll let him have five this week, then in Perth next week he can get 17 and enter the all-time top ten.

 

[RW]

Yep, Round 1 2005. It feels weird thinking of how shit Hawthorn were back then before their fans turned into annoying pricks, your good self excluded of course

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

3 seasons have just flown by worth every cent and more and should have a medallion around his neck if a few of his teammates put in the effort he does.
