Kinda reminds me of the time Michael Jackson was drowning, until someone threw him a buoy......

Or why King Charles pecker turned green. He dipped it in DI 🤡 :)

Oh, c’mon, you know who …

 
I was so shocked to read Frost was contracted for 2024, I had to fact check it.

And there it was. Right in front of me.

Being tall gets you many extra years on a list.

See most teams 3rd ruckman.
 
Player 32 - Tim O'Brien

Tim O'Brien shows how desperate clubs are for tallish intercept marking players. In this case, the Bulldogs grabbed a player they targeted at the 2012 draft but at the time chose Nathan Hrovat after he slipped past North's pick 15, so Tim O'Brien slipped all the way to pick 28 which was originally the Bulldogs' pick but slid back after the Hawks swapped that pick with the Bulldogs as part of the Brian Lake trade.
Confused? Well, Mark Robinson is somehow a 'Chief Football Writer' for a major media publication in Australia so basically life is confusing. It's also terrifying. Sometimes life is the artistic equivalent of screaming 'Silent Night' at a crying infant. In German.

Anyway, at the end of 2021 the Hawks wanted to 'rebuild' but didn't want to make it obvious so they decided to let Tim O'Brien walk to the bulldogs as a free agent. The bulldogs had presumably been impressed by his mark of the year nomination and thought he might do it again:


Tim... didn't.
Renowned as a 'good guy', this was obviously his downfall as most decent key(ish) defenders are utter bastards. Liam Jones is an anti-vaxxer, Steven May belts teammates, and Harry McKay pretends to be a twin called "Ben" to earn a second salary. Jacob Weitering probably sells poisoned milk to school children or something.

Anyway, this year Tim improved on last season by slightly increasing his rebound-50 stats and marks and most importantly playing fewer games. Unfortunately he was delisted at the end of this season marking a sadly unsuccessful free agency period for Tim. He's the type who will probably be offered roles to stay in clubland, however as a red-head we can probably rule out the Suns.

Fun fact: Tim O'Brien is from Mount Gambier, South Australia's second most populated city at around 33,000. Kasey Chambers is also from Mount Gambier and she plays country music or, as some call it, 'farm emo'.

Timmy, good luck next year and thanks for your efforts. Welcome to the Bottom 50 for 2023.

Player 48 - Patrick Cripps

Patrick Cripps - he's a superstar! Had some monster games this year! What is he doing anywhere near this list?

Well, I did get to see Patrick in the flesh just once this year, and he was awful. It was the round 9 game against the Bulldogs, and Luke Beveridge sent ruckman/forward flanker Bailey Smith to Cripps, just to see how the Bulldogs' 7th best midfielder would go.
Cripps had a handful of touches in the second half as his formerly out of form opponent would kick 2 goals and blanket him, on the way to 30 touches and 57 instagram posts himself. Cripps then was fined for pulling Bailey's mullet, to showcase just how unAustralian Patrick is.

In fairness, Cripps would have been pretty pleased with his season. After playing 181 games without a finals appearance, Cripps would then go on to win two finals in his next two games because he hates Essendon.

His last game was a finals disaster in Brisbane where he racked up his lowest disposal count for the year (13, incl. 5 clangers). Sure he did lead them to finals glory twice but it doesn't count for too much when you show the AFL world you travel about as well as Shappelle Cordy. As a side note, Islamic Lesbian is a great name for a synth-pop band.

Anyway, in 2024 Patrick will sure to be looking to build on the successes of this year and maybe even retain Brownlow Medal eligibility again despite belting someone from behind then getting off on a technicality.

Patrick, kudos on your finals wins and welcome to the Bottom 50 for 2023.

Bont better be top 10 then campaigner

According to my Awks supporting mate, TOB is pretty fair kick for goal. Fun fact for clubland in that needs more goal than points. Getting TOB a shot on goal is a different matter. Not getting the pill, gets rightly TOB to MB50.

He is indeed a decent set shot goal kicker, but like Ryan Shoenmakers before him he just didn't get involved enough or offer enough additional skills to really deserve a spot as a third tall.

Unfortunate really, because I feel like both were really close to being good AFL quality players.

If Tim Tim could've added bulk like Carrot Top he'd almost be still on a list.




Almost.
