Even though i am a collingwood supporter, i have a lot of time for this Foley kid. Great running midfielder. What do you guys think about him and if he will even become better?

It's a bit of a captain O statement, we don't need collingwood supporters slogging up our thread page with dribble.

Lighten up man. So much anger, so misplaced.

hopefully you dont call this dribble;
i rate foley very highly and belive that this is what judd will become at carlton, a gun in his own right but not the man he was. He would have been aa easly if he was at a club that made the 8, ling made it in on the merit of geelong and not much else, same goes for mooney. Foley is underated to those who view superstars as players in superstar teams, people fail to recognise how good of a season he really did have because they view how good a player is on how well their team whent. Mooney, Ling and to an extent Corey got into aa because of geelong, whilst foley struggled in the brownlow because the umps failed to consider the impact of a player in a loosing team.

You obviously didn't watch many Geelong games. Foley is good, but he's no star.

you obviously didnt watch any richmond games, he held our team through most of the season, i would hatew to see how bad things would of gotten without him in the middle and only his 2nd season in seniors

On the other hand, there is a few threads 'criscione' could have looked at instead of starting a fresh one to rehash the same dribble we've all been over. Ignore them and they might learn to search for themselves, or even better think twice about starting new threads on topics that have been done!!

i agree foley will be a good player, but i dunno bout comparing him to judd. Over this whole trade period i have lost a lot of respect for judd, he doesnt really seem to care much about the footy, just all else that comes with it, foley will exceed him with years to come

lol you wait and see, judd at carlton will not be the judd at wc...or maybe its just im annoyed that he didnt want to talk to us because we chose hodgey over judd or because of the "drug alligations":D
 
Do a search for 'Lingy's towel of honour'. He was by far and away the best tagger in the league, stopping the best player of every club nearly every week. He did alright with his kicking for goal too. Not taking anything away from Foley, but he wouldn't have been AA at Geelong - he wouldn't have got half the ball that he did at Richmond.

You're right. He would have got double :D

You dont have to defend all your players dude. You have the best team ever imo right now, so enjoy it. But for christs sake realised that a player like foley, copping the number 1 tag in a shyte team doesnt get cheap possessions. He is not a J.Bowden/P.Bowden. He is right in the top few in the afl for contested possies and clearances but at geelong with his pace he would be getting the loose ball equally as much and he would get protection. Foley in your team would have gotten 20+ votes.
