Jeff Farmer

[jk_shredder]

First off, I would like to declare myself as Tiger supporter so guys dont think I am trying to stir things up but what do you guys honestly think of Jeff Farmer?

I saw him last weekend when he was in Melbourne just before the Carlton game. He sulked a lot and was rude to a few kids in Freo colors. Its no wonder opposition supporters hate him. I would have thought Freo supporters would dislike him too.

Opinions?

If ppl had the commonsense they wouldn't go and bag Farmer in the first place.

Farmer needs to be left alone. The Carlton fans who bagged the pants off Farmer last week were really immature and horrible. No wonder Farmer got narky.

I wasnt refering to the people bagging him. I saw him being rude to Freo supporters BEFORE the game. All players are bagged by opposition supporters, its all part of footy. Why is Jeff Farmer so special, that everyone who does not follow Freo have to treat him with such reverance?

They were bagging the crap out of him.

Before he came to Fremantle, I found Farmer to be the most annoying footballer in the AFL. Now, to mangle a famous quote, he might still be an annoying little ****, but at least he's OUR annoying little ****.

Away from footy he may well be a wonderful and giving family man, and he IS a talented player, but I personally don't have much time for the personality I see on the footy field.

Actually we love him. So give up and ______ off

Didn't mind him too much at Melbourne and now think he's a deadset bloody legend!! The more the opposition supporters, media etc bag him unfairly, the more respect I have for the bloke as a footballer.

I ask for opinions and this is what I get. Absolutely charming! Ever heard of what a discussion is?

JK ....

Fair question.

I like him mate as he applies fantastic pressure on the ball, does not like losing and has enormous faith in his own potential. His football capability is the major thing I look for.

On your opening comment (which is why you copped a bit of flak), how was he rude and sulky and and anymore than some of the otehr blokes. It is funny as Jeff actually lives just down from my Mum & Dads business and has never been anything but friendly.

We hear a lot of stories that are from friends of friends and in reality are just bagging exercises.

I have taken your question on face value ....I like him and in my own personal experience he was polite and a good bloke.

Thanks for that guys. I guess its a little different when the player is playing your colors instead of the opposition. I appreciate the feedback.

Good luck for the finals.
