Hamill - further knee problems

[Linda_Lovelace]

According to SEN Hamill is back in for another arthroscope on his knee.

Must be just about finished.

 

[Blues_Man]

Is this the same knee that he originally injured by running past the ball and driving it into an opponent ?

 

[JeffDunne]

And here they come.

 

[Linda_Lovelace]

Yep, if this so called 'hard' man had played the ball he would not be in so much trouble. Up there with Mercuri as the great 5 year deals in AF>

Still at least they can blame Thomas.

 

[Tiger_Of_Old]

No doubt the saints hope he retires after this latest setback.

 

[Moss Rocket]

And here they come.

POT KETTLE BLACK!

 

[one_twelve112]

It must be time to have him put down....surely

 

[Linda_Lovelace]

But I thought he was going to be fine JD. After all Fireman and you assured everyone that he would be OK.

I did? Link?

LMAO ... oh the irony.

You never want to see any footballer injured, and especially one as prone as Hamill

Hopefully this is the last of it and he comes through unscathed

No comment from JD apart from "and here they come" ... something tells me his on the defensive about this .... wouldn't have anything to do with "WE TOLD YOU SO" when the contract was signed now would it?

Oh time tells plenty, doesn't it JD....tick tick tick tick .... oh how sweet!

Since I don't know anything more than what's in the press release what's there to say?

BTW, 7 and counting already! Was I right or was I right?

 

[Hap Hapablap]

hmmm its a waiting game now. i just wonder if he has the mindframe to keep playing.

 

[Atomboy]

Yep, if this so called 'hard' man had played the ball he would not be in so much trouble.

Why would he ??

That's his game, and I love watching tough nuts like Hammill, Kerr, Hayes, Kirk, Mclean, Mooney etc throw their bodies around on the field for their teammates.

It's the greatest thing about AFL that you have players who are prepared to punish their bodies to make it easy for their team-mates. Name me another game in the world where you can do that and not squeal like a little girl in return when you get some pay back.

I find watching those guys play a hell of a lot more entertaining than watching some free-baller lurk out on the fringes getting an easy receive and looking like a hero.

I think that sort of playing style should be celebrated rather than ridiculed.

 

[SurreyBlue]

BTW, 7 and counting already! Was I right or was I right?

Oh you where right, just like your "Grant Thomas is a good coach" statements.

Don't worry, just think in a couple of years will be able to have another discussion about all this again!

One big difference between the players mentioned above is that all are "BALL" players except 2. I think you can guess which 2.

Unfortunately for your team mate, footy is a contact sport, so I don't have any problem with guys like Hammill and Mooney throwing their weight around at all.

As long as they do it within the rules, fair bump play on.

 

[Timmy from Thomastown]

And here they come.

Glad to see you could pop your head out of a Carlton thread to contribute.

Well Kerr certainly aimed for the ball, he just slipped

 

[DJONA2000]

I hereby withdraw my contention re-Mclean being the most overrated in the comp.

Mr Aaron Hamill step on down.

How awesome is a 600k a year key forward who doesnt kick goals? But geez he sets them up, geez his tough.

What an absolute joke of a career, sans 1999-2000 seasons he would be just another injury prone underachiever.
