Let's be honest, Vickery got him good, but if he does anything to great effect he probably didn't mean it.

For an unproven player though, he's such an unlikable arrogant tossbag.
True we shouldn't rule out he legitimately thought it was the ball.From his history of ineptitude.

I dare say he was probably trying to hit the ball - although the look on his stupid face afterwards suggested otherwise.

Shame the return bump was all a big act on Vickery's part - wish someone had really ironed him out.

Guessing he's not overly popular with players among the league either

**** I hate Vickery, easily the most unlikable player in the league. ******* campaigner.
He's a super shit bloke, but there's no way he meant that.

He doesn't have enough coordination to actually hit what he's aiming for.

The reaction when Darren Boyd made a note of Footscray/WB's bright future compared to that of Richmond VFL/Richmond's made me laugh. Like they don't want to acknowledge the tide turning.

Watching them on TV, I'm not surprised we towelled them in Round 1. There's no area of the ground that they excel in.

I noticed that too. Funny how quick they all were to crow about Box Hill and Geelong's success leading to success in the seniors. But it can't be the same with Footscray.

Buddy punts the agent that got him the deal of a lifetime. Don't tell me it's not dog eat dog out there lads. Brutal industry.
To be fair why does he need a football manager anymore after that contract. Gone with an entertainment/media one now, which seems about right.

I like how they show the huddles at the breaks getting to listen to some of the coaches from different clubs over the weeks. Gary Aires knows how to motivate his group a lot better than some others I've seen

It's a little bit sad. We've heard so many stories of days gone by - Chapman, Ablett Jr, etc playing in a Geelong VFL flag, and later emulating that on the biggest stage of all. Box Hill, the fabled development ground for Hawthorn.

But these old bastards, covered in cobwebs and still clinging to the days of Bartlett, Roach, Hart and Richmond making the finals in consecutive years, the Colliwobbles, the brown paper bag days at Princes Park, they just can't handle the thought that Footscray finally aren't on the road to nowhere.

I hope they're all still alive to see us win a premiership. It'll be glorious.
