I was wrong about...

Green - I thought he'd 'graduate' from the forward line and start spending a bit more time in the middle, but he has made the position his own and really filled a hole in our list that Banfield left.

... Lots.

Originally I was wrong about Patfull.

I was a little bit wrong about Rockliff. I didn't think he would ever be the player I expected Redden and Rich to be, and much as I like those guys, Rocky has moved past them as players.

Though i never expressed my doubts, I was also wrong about Harwood. I thought Harwood was good enough but had missed his opportunity, the way he has fought back into the side and is building a career is a credit to his strength of character.

Fortunately I was wrong about the Merrett incident. Sold both Bewick and Crisp a bit short but I guess the jury is still out. Also wrong about Sam Sheldon, I thought he'd make it. Starting to worry about Ryan Lester (I thought he was on track to an A-grader) after another low energy display, just not sure what is going on there.

Supporting Vossy as coach to the bitter end is another one I am not sure if I was right or wrong. Still think the club did the wrong thing with him from his under-resourced early years to his sacking. Very pleased with Leppa almost from day one, though I have no posts to back up that statement.

Forgot - I was wrong about Patfull too. I always thought it was one "l"

I thought moloney would go on to have his best season to date. How wrong was I.

 

[POBT]

Yeo - thought he was a loyal bloke
Longer - thought he was a good bloke
Karnezis - thought he was not a mummy's boy
Docherty - thought he could kick straight
Polec - thought he would run both ways

Interesting. Because i seem to recall that Green's player review for 2013 suggested that we should stop wanting to turn him into a midfielder and accept that he could be a quality small forward. Sage words indeed from whoever wrote that.

Actually I think he isn't bad going through the midfield at times but probably less suited to that than Zorko and or Taylor

Body's just let him down. Have to feel for him.

 

[Nunez]

I was wrong about Albert Proud when I was a kid. I thought he'd be a gun after he did well in the nab cup. Then he glassed a woman. ..D"oh!

 

[Skoob]

I thought the exit of Geishen would improve AFL umpiring, oh boy...

 

[dlanod]

Maguire. Thought he'd be depth this year, but he's been much better than I expected compared to last year.

Not just any woman. A POLICEwoman. You're not allowed to do that.

 

[josephs_79]

I thought Gold Coast would spank us -WRONG

I thought Merrett would cop 2 weeks at least - WRONG

I thought we would finish at least 10th or better this year(Even with change of coach) - Still a chance but going with WRONG

I thought I would post a lot more this year - WRONG

I think I will just keep my opinions to myself for the remainder of the year - CORRECT lol

 

[Old Den]

I thought we wuz robbed with the draft picks that we got for the Go Home 5.

But in spite of the best efforts to give us as little as possible the Footy Gods decreed otherwise and proved me wrong.

Oh he was looking right for a while ... this is the best one yet.

 

[Viceregal]

Ok Tommy Rockliff *might* just have a place in the team going forward ... Andrew Hamilton

 

[James North]

Thought it was Dustin Martin who took bikies into the rooms after the game against us.

Turns out I was completely mistaken - it was in fact Jake King.

No you're thinking of ....

Oh bugger.

 

[Karnezis_13]

I remember thinking Pearce Hanley wasn't going to be more than maybe a solid role-player when he was but a young lad.

That's just absolute wrong in it's purest form.

 

[GingerGreatness]

Really thought Banners would turn it around.

Wanted Longer at pick 7.

Put more than 5 minutes thought into whether we should have taken Cousins rather than Rockliff in the PSD. So 5+ minutes of wrong.

Not sure I get your drift there.

Matthew LLoyd !!!!!


You were wrong!!!!!!

 

[WhiteLionFeva]

I was wrong about so many things mentioned in this thread that I now must acknowledge that I know sweet bugger all about the Lions specifically and football in general. And darling, you were right.
