Farmer sucks now.

[CowboyFromHell]

Anyone catch much of the Freo/WCE game? Farmer is half the player he once was. Barely got near the ball and when he did, all he tried to do was hit players and throw his body around, which didn't do alot considering his size. He's crap now, and Freo don't even know how to use him properly anyway. No magic, no possies, no nothing!

Seeing as we got Bizzell for Farmer and for less money, we can now safely say we ****ted it in with this deal!

 

[Ms.Storm]

He's just playing for the wrong reasons now...get him back here to Melbourne as we lack personalities...

Farmer was carrying a hamstring injury. He was not 100% leading up to the game.

Oh, and thanks for Troy Simmonds by the way, he has really established himself as one of the elite ruckman in the league.

[dees*gal]

As long as he doesn't show up and screw us over again when we play Freo then good luck to him.

Farmer carrying a hamstring injury?? How many times has he had an injury like that now? 10... 11 times? It can't be far off snapping.

And you can have Simmonds. All three ruckmen we have now are better than him. White, Jolly and Jamar are better than Simmonds.

OH MY GOD! YOU CANT BE SERIOUS! He is a complete hack that bloke. I was glad to see the back of him. He wins barely enough hitouts for you lot to keep him in the #1 ruck position. He wouldnt be in the top 15 ruckman in the comp. I'd have Steve McKee over him!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Pffft, if you say so. I seem to recall him beating Jeff White last year at Subi.

I, like most other people, disagree. You will be proven wrong once again by the end of this season.... How many of his games did you watch last year by the way?? He was only beaten on two occasions last year by Darcy and King.

i tend to agree with D_J^B_J here. he did beat Whitey when we played them last year. cos he played the same style as whitey and he didnt like it much, and yeah all in all he did have a good season. IMO he is better than Jamar and a tad better than Jolly. he has more opportunities. that why. but no way in hell is he better than whitey.

If that was the case, he should have been All Australian. He wasn't in contention, so I don't know what you consider a good game.

But thanks for taking a bad tempered, over-paid thug off our hands. As you can see, we won the deal overall and we are genuine finals contenders, unlike yourselves. Enjoy another year out of the eight.

We are saving him up for another after the siren goal agaisnt your mob

Snake is a gun! I'm still a fan even though he doesn't play for us anymore. He & White broke even last year at subi I reckon. White's the better all round player although little separates them in regards to ruckwork.

I'll do you a deal, he can kick 20 in every other game and none against us? You can't get a better deal than that

Very Tempting

We easily won on the Farmer deal.... Clint Bizzell is an absolute superstar, while Farmer has struggled. Good luck to Wiz, though, he was one of my favourites while he was at the Dees.

He was in contention for the AA team. He was one of the five ruckmen on the mid-season list of AA contenders along with King, Primus, Darcy and White.

I thought he was your favourite player and now you call him a "thug"...
But yes I agree, Bizzel had a better 2002 than Farmer.

Enjoy another year out of the eight.

I wouldn't count your chickens just yet. This statement may well come back to haunt you at the end of the season.

He was my fave player for many years, yes. But I get some satisfaction out of the fact that the club has progressed so well without him. Many didn't think we could.
