Surely this thread is a joke?

Danny Stanley has played some of the worst football I have seen in the last 10 years when given a run in the AFL! Has everyone forgotten that comical game v Freo where he went from bad to utterly disgraceful?

The reason he is not playing is that he has no composure, his decision making is too slow and he is playing at the level he is suited to, VFL!

I could have quoted any number of similarly negative opinions of Danny Stanley. Hopefully we will get to see him in combat with Luke Ball. For Danny's sake, and for the good year he has enjoyed with GC. I hope he acquits himself well against us. At one time he was a bit of a cult hero, as this thread shows.

Most pointless bump ever?

Even if it is, what is your problem. There is sweet FA happening on the Collingwood board and if you have no interest, as obviously nobody but me has, why not just ignore it? As it is, you have merely placed this at the top of the threads again. And why 'pointless'? I don't get it!

I think it's a decent bump to be honest (hence not closing it.) Nobody predicted Stanley would be a superstar but I think what a lot of us did identify was he had the potential to be a solid player in a role we lacked. He has proved that this year at GC IMO and whilst we clearly don't need him now at the time we could not of predicted we would have been so lucky as to have Ball fall into our lap.
 
There's a thread about Stanly post on the Gold Cost board that now suggests Stanlley would "get a game in Collingwood's best 22 now for sure," - and "He'd get a game over Blair surely?". I disagree, but wouldn't mind the opinion of others -

...Can't see how. Who would he replace?

No, he wouldn't make our current team and would not replace Blair.

I like him though, he's a decent player.
 
I love Stanners, I have a "Clearances for the People" t-shirt, and I wish him all the best... but it's unlikely he'd be in our team right now. Not least because the coaching staff showed what they thought of him with the way they treated him.

Would he be in our 22 with Buckley at the helm? Probably not, but not as easy a question to answer.
