So far in this thread we've seen some great things from Brad Roo.

- Bragging about asking to be relocated
- Shane Harvey >>> Aaron Davey
- Hansen >>> Frawley

What can this guy come up with next??
 
Brother SLF - I don't know if you have seen Zombieland. If you haven't, throw on those Wonder Woman undies and get your wormy arse down to the video shop pronto.

Zombieland has many great aspects. For instance, the Rules are cool, and the methodology can be applied to a dynamic such as the Bay which, in its own way, features just as many zombies as the movie.

Somewhat inspired by your meltdown earlier in the thread, I have drawn up my own rules. After all, none of us is infallible, especially me. So here is one of them. Take this dictum to heart. And keep on polishing up that deputy sheriff's badge you wear around with such pride.

Rule 3 – The SLF Radiator Rule: never lose your cool in public - never. One the radiator goes pop, you are broadcasting to the Bay that someone has got under your skin. This is a fundamental rule. Silence as a response is a great weapon.

Let me know if you have any questions - and go and see the movie !

Biffinator.

There will be more gems to follow, I am sure.


Im thinking the next one will be something along the lines of -

Ziebell > Watts


He is stupid enough to do it, so lets see what happens.
 
melbourne got the 2 best midfielders in the 09 draft scully and Trengove

just because a few other players have had good game melbourne got it wrong
yer right


both Scully and Trengove will be 10yr+ players and stars of the comp for years to come.

don't judge watts just yet he will be a superstar all big men take time.

Well said Jeff, and I feel the same about Dustin Martin.
 
Bastinac wins Rising Star nom this week.

First of his draft to do so.

Head to head with Scully in round 6.:thumbsu:

Ziebell gets Trengove.

The question that remains is, who will Hansen get to destroy?

Will Watts finally show his face?

Hansen will anally violate the boy.

With all due respect but how would a Richmond supporter know what young talent looks like? We are talking about trading blunders here, a Richmond minefield.
 
The supreme irony is that Harvey averaged more goals as a North player than Davey averages over his entire career at Melbourne.
Scott Cummings averaged more goals than Glenn Archer. What's your point?

Scott Cummings averaged more goals than Glenn Archer. What's your point?

Scott Cummings played as a FF and Glenn as a defender.

The point re: Shane Harvey is one club (Essendon) rated him as a first rounder.

And every club in the league passed over Aaron a number of times - including Melbourne.

So North taking Harvey in a rookie draft is understandable.

Its not like Melbourne sprung a surprise and used a first rounder on Davey

However good he is and however much of a dud Shane turned out to be.
 
Your credibility has already tripled.

psssst - ask your teacher to explain to you what the word irony means.

and a pretty useless and misleading stat - useless because Harvey played 4 games for the Kangas, and misleading, because Davey averages more goals per game over their careers ...... but don't stress, i'm sure statistics will be on the curriculum some time this year

Thank you for pointing that out that nugget of information.

It doesn't matter how Harvey was rated when he played for Essendon. You guys picked him up as a discarded player, when no one else thought he was worth it. Its not like you took a punt on an untried youngster who didn't turn out.

The irony, ... and take note Brad Roo ..... is that it was the North scouts that brought Davey down to Port Melbourne, and were pleading for him to be selected. But your recruiters decided Harvey would be of more value. And I hope he was for all of his 4 games, versus Davey's 200+

If thats not a drafting blunder, I don't know what is.
