Player Watch Lin Jong

[Baltimore Jack]

Maybe you need a history lesson. Google Arthur Calwell.

Its definitely borderline racist and its definitely an overused cliche

Good pick up TfT, I wonder how it got past the Editor?
Not sure anything will come of it though

Was probably at the pub with Robbo

 

[76woodenspooners]

My assumption was that Jay Clark was the man ...

Correct weight

 

[76woodenspooners]

... but it is insensitive and tactless and frankly stupid ...

..., and classless, gauche, and puerile.

What a crap article, continuing on his Collingwood click bait theme for the season.

"NOT for the first time, AFL clubs have been exposed as deceitful and hypocritical.
Exhibit A is Collingwood.
Haven’t yet heard from veteran Collingwood chief executive Gary Pert, and his comments will probably even more pertinent.
Remember what Perty said when Geelong visited Port Adelaide’s Travis Boak in 2012?
“I thought it was poor,’’ he said.
“There are rules in football and there are courtesies. The pressure Geelong put on Port Adelaide was unfair.
Unfair, you reckon?
How can Pert criticise the Cats, creating simmering tension between the clubs, and then do exactly what he criticised the Cats for doing?"

"My initial thoughts were old school: How could this happen and Jong not lose the trust of his teammates and Beveridge?
Clearly, many of us have to get into modern thinking about recruiting and trading and free agency."

Saves some face...
"In this situation, Collingwood is Exhibit A. But if we are to hang all other exhibits, we’d need all of Jeff’s Shed and then some."

Seriously. This slug needs to be taught a lesson.

I wish I had it in me to dress up like and lady and actually look like one. I'd go to whichever place Robbo guzzles turps and I'd crack on to him. I'd plaster him with liquor, till his true colors were there for all to see... I'd then invite him into a cubicle set up a few lines for him and get him to rack them up naked. I'd then tape it and send it to every media outlet on the planet.

Can't stand this bloke. I think I put too much though into this bloke. But seeing us play the way we did today and in patches
Over the past 10 weeks it makes me wonder how much damage this cinder block caused our guys - granted no one forced out guys to rack lines, but gees, to make us the face of and basically accuse half our list of it was a disgraceful act.


Vile piece of excrement......

Based on What?

 

[DaicosianMarvels]

I watched him tonight and I still have no idea why we want him. The guy is useless.

One Aish is enough we don't need one who plays exactly like him but less talented.

I haven't paid great attention to this issue. Heard a bit of Robbo on the radio and like that article, he tried to make a mountain out of a molehill. And managed to contradict himself about 4 times. I'd have more respect for him if he just dropped the faux outrage over every minor issue.

Have the Bulldogs themselves come out expressing any outrage over this? I wouldn't be surprised if they knew about it and this is all a fuss over nothing. He's a fringe player at best and has probably been told that his future is limited.

According to this thread;
https://www.bigfooty.com/forum/threads/lin-jong-where-do-we-go-to-from-here.1137514/
The Dogs knew of the visit.
Didn't see the article in question, did the drunk actually ask tha dogs if they knew of the visit before it was used as click bait?

 

[Hard Ball Get]

Racist cliche by Robbo, what a shock​

Weird that I'd stick up for him, but Robbo doesn't write the headlines. That's on the newspaper.

I'm sure a lot of you guys watched him with a little more interest last night. That was one of his poorer games for the season.
Would usually have 4-8 more touches.
Nail at least one of those shots.
He also seemed to mistime some of his 3rd man up.

Assuming Libba doesn't play, he should hold his spot, so you guys (fans not club) will hopefully get another look at him next week.

 

[Timmy from Thomastown]

Racist cliche by somebody then.

And we don't need him.

For what it's worth, I agree. The interest is there though so thought I'd offer a dogs perspective. I'd like to think I'm pretty measured and open minded in footy discussion, but if opposition supports aren't welcome just say the word.

Opposition supporters are always welcome here - so long as you play by the rules

 

[Jonno94]

Still don't understand this one, Rupert Wills will be a much better option next year when he is fitter and is a far better user of the ball.

 

[TW Sherrin]

Robbo with another click bait pies article.

Geez I hope Bucks looks at him on 360 and scratches his nose and gives him the bird.

 

[FIGJAM]

Kept a keen eye on him last night.

Pass!

 

[eddiebankbalance]

Sunday footy/sports show with Caro has a female host, dont know her name but said 'lin jong' visited Collingwood holden centre to talk about the womens netball team.

WTF??

Can anyone shed light on this? ..was she taking the piss?

 

[THATSGOLD]

Don't want Jong unless he is free.

Is this a refugee comment?

No offence but you really need to keep these thoughts to yourself...

True. I thought I might use it as an example to illustrate my dislike for this thing.


No offense taken other than the mental picture of myself in ladies clothing. Would truly be an ugly sight.

 

[bucksisbest]

Only time he has really wowed me was in their VFL grand final win.

Suspect he is on the radar as they like his burst power out of traffic and think he could be a low sell high return investment. Having said that you'd be backing the dogs footy program for player development ober ours at the minute.

 

[TradeDraft]

His ability to kick ugly, miss targets but do so with an air of "Jarryd Blair determination in his face" impressed key Pies recruiter Derek Hine who was an interested onlooker. Hine who was the only club recruiter sitting in the Medallion stand cut a lonely figure.
