Leon Davis

[AG]

Kicked goal of the year too!

There have been plenty like that this year. You or me could dob those running banana kicks along the ground if we tried. Obviously it's much harder during a game but those types of goals don't 'wow' me anymore. Rioli should win goal of the year for his effort against Essendon.

No need to catergorise him based on race. But he is having a fantastic season (he was great last year also) and it would be nice to see him rewarded with AA selection.
And f**k me those goals were great

Who would people prefer in their side - Franklin or Davis?

 

[Tulip]

definetely Buddy

the boys definetely a very good player but i hate the way the commentators go nuts over 'neon leon' every time he gets the ball

hard to compare....

if you have a shocking midfield, i can't really see how a Franklin will help...

conversely, if the midfield is decent enough already, Franklin can probably do more damage than Davis

Buddy could run through the mid-field if you were desperate or lacking resources, and has done so for the Hawks

great player, and deserves an AA spot in the forward pocket.

his goal however, i woudl not enjoy seeing as GOTY. Rioli's was ten times better last yr and was beaten by... wait for it... a Leon Davis Goal from a slight angle 50m out!

well the reason he won it is because......it was better

Amazing game last night, especially the first half. He is a much more consistent player than three years ago, and very, very dangerous.

 

[DeadlyAkkuret]

Yeah he's quite good, but how many threads on Collingwood or Collingwood players since their win? Save some of it for your board, it's a little ridiculous when every 3rd thread is Collingwood related.

 

[Grumpy Bum]

Yep, I got my pen liscence yesterday. I'm so smart.

I'd use a pencil and eraser if I was you, until you learnt to spell at least!

Took you long enough.

uncontested goal from 50 on a slight angle - after having the ball handed to you, is better then winning your own ball, shrugging two tackles and lining up the goals? ok then, thanks for clearing that one up

 

[MC Extra Dollop]

Correct. If Buddy and Pavlich switched teams, Buddy would play the Pavlich "wherever he's needed" role, while Pav would be a permanent key forward, like Buddy.

 

[smiddaz123]

.....what goal are you talking about? Last year's goal of the year? Go watch it on youtube and point out where he got it handed to him.

If you're going to be so arrogant, at least deserve to be arrogant. Watch the goal.

Is the best indigenous player in the game ATM easily
finishing ability, class and pure brilliance

Lance Franklin says hello.

LOL have you even seen it?

 

[jakson68]

He is pure class, simple as that

 

[roosaints]

Franklin is easily the best indigenous player in the comp.

But Davis is a gun. Who would have thought five years ago?

lol at 'easily'

The meaning of 'easily' has been well and truly lost on this site this season.

But yes, Davis is a gun with sweet skills.

When they are at their best he just shades Goodes but this year Davis and Goodes crap all over Franklin. Davis has had the better season to date.

Should I start a Stephen Milne thread?

Should I start a Stephen Milne thread?

not unless he gets AA this year like Leon will.
