Jake Stringer - The Revenge of Membrey

[cartel]

Reckon the media kicks up this much of a fuss if Membrey gets dropped?

No they wouldn't, but what's your point?

Are you equating media attention with quality as a player?

Everyone's favourite Saints troll with some fine commentary on Membrey before he joined us;

After Membrey joins;

Saints lost deal getting him for free;

What do you think now that he has kicked more goals than Stringer this year in four less games and now seems unlikely that he'll be caught because Jakey is playing VFL?

At least you have a standalone VFL team so he'll hopefully develop into a decent player.

Wish I could like this at least twice

Dogs caught wind he wants out to the Bombers. That's what my source says.

Yeah but what about Jong playing despite him being off...#mysource #myaasshole

Wondering which mod made this new thread? Considering he turned a Jake Stringer thread into a Stringer vs Membrey thread I'm guessing a St.Kilda mod, but can't count out a LolNorf mod either.

Either way this belongs in the bay now.

Probably suggests he's done something in the past to earn the media attention like, oh I don't know, kick 56 goals and earn an AA nod at 21 while playing some of the most exciting football in the league.

Been a real concerted effort from the media and opposition fans to tear him down. Pathetic, really, although I shouldn't expect any better from a community that thrives on bullying people (see Tom Boyd, Lindsay Thomas, Adam Goodes, Jobe Watson, Jack Riewoldt back in the day).

Isn't jobe watson the only convicted drug cheat to 'win' a brownlow?

add Nick Riewoldt to that. blokes hang shit on him for showing passion

Always Remembery the Membrey

However Members and Stringer are 2 completely different players however they play the same sort of roles as a 3rdish tall who can tear teams apart.

 

[bird_man]

Why was this bumped, Membrey is a dud and Stringer is a gun.

Do you really think Membrey is a dud?

Didn't he kick 5 goals and then 4 goals against you guys?

Don't understand how anyone could hang shit on him. Champion bloke and player. Pisses me off no end that Dogs fans continue to give it to him over an umpiring decision from seven years ago that was entirely on Lake, who pushed him over after being explicitly warned that if he did so they'd pay a free.

Can a mod actually explain to me why this thread was split into two to make me look like a massive dick? I do a good enough job of that myself.

Forward Press? I actually don't understand at all. It's like whoever the mod is just wants to start a dogs/saints shitfight.

Because he doesn't score vs top 6 teams

Now this is some top quality wreckage.

One of these just for you ManOfClay

He's not a dud but he's certainly no where near stringers level. I understand that the footy community act and comment on current moment in time and this is a perfect case just as jake has been dropped but they are still worlds apart. As poor as jakes been he's still gets tagged as a roaming forward. If you want to compare players pretend they're both up for trade. Jake would get a top 10 pick, membery wouldn't get a first rounder.

I don't think I even compared the two.

I know Membrey is left to roam the forward line free. Never has an opponent.

Surely teams would have figured out that he can kick a good haul of goals if they don't give him an opponent.

He has done it multiple times this year, admittedly mostly against bottom half teams.

But I think most teams would put some thought into a match up on him.

I think Membrey's best strength is reading the play. Has a habit of being right place, right time away from him opponent.

That's a strength in itself.

But I do think Saints fans are carrying on a bit too much about Membrey. Tory Dickson kicked over 50 last year.

Let's see how he goes in 2017.

I was being sarcastic to the poster that said it's harder for Stringer as he has an opponent each week.

Yep. This thread as turned to absolute shit. Good to see the main board mods such as Malifice and Forward Press allow the main board to turn itself into Bay13 standard.

I don't mod the main board any more, mateys.

Report it and move on.
