Matthew Bate

[crowsarethebest]

This is what bulletin had to say in the thread New phantom draft.
I have heard that Bate is a very big chance to go to the crows at 8, they are flying him over to Adelaide to have a serious chat with him!! Too bad if Collingwood wanted him at 10!!

Is that true or is it jonathon griffen he is talking about?

Who the hell is Master Bate?

 

[Eggzoi]

While I like the sound of him, I really think we need a quality midfielder with pick 8.

Sounds like a ********er to me.

Maybe next year he'll be sent back to Victoria as trade Bate.

*cough*

Is he from the Fish Creek Bates? If so it would make him a Fish Bate! "TISH BOOM!" And his favorite band is? You guessed it, SpiderBATE!! I'll quit while I am ahead!!

Stop bagging him... he's a great player heaps of scope for improvement and is only 17. Kicked forty-odd goals in the TAC and won the medal thing (sort of the equavalent of the brownlow.

Bate is one of the standout players in the draft and most of you Crows supporters rubbish him. I tell you right now he will be better than that unproven kid Jericho.

 

[macca23]

Lighten up you guys. Nobody doubts for a moment that he's a very good young footballer.

The jokes are about his name, not him as a footballer.

Until proven on the field, it's called potential.
That makes good der Bates.

Jericho has played 15 AFL games. Bates hasnt played yet. How can you say Jericho is 'unproven', especially when comparing the 2. The chances are Bates will be a better player than Jericho, but untill he plays atleast 1 AFL game we wont know. What does Jericho have to do with anything anyway? Most Crows supporters dont rate him that highly anyway.
And nobody was 'rubbishing' him, just having fun with his name. Get a grip.
Sounds like you are just itching for a fight when there isnt one to be had.

your not gonna believe this but at my old school there was a teacher named that exactly. he was a music teacher, and he wanted to be called master not mr. upon reflection this is slightly disturbing because i am almost certain he was gay. and it was an all boys school.

Your english teacher would be so proud of you lot.
