Dangerfield... pft is this a joke?

0. Garry...
1. Buddy is a hack.
2. Fyfe in a league of his own at the moment
3. Dangerfield is in the Jelwood, Mitchell class these days and not close to Fyfe (or pendles, or Gary)
4. Pendlebury anyone???
Sorry, Buddy a hack? I can't take that post seriously, when he is up and firing, Lance Franklin would still be the ultimate
drawcard/bums on seats player in this league, the media and general public's obsession about his personal life only happens to superstars (in any sport for that matter)

And no, Pendlebury, whilst being a very good player, isn't a superstar, in fact, I now genuinely believe he is overrated.

Buddy used to be a superstar. He is now too ****** to ever get to that level consistently again.

His mind left the game when he cashed in for sydney. He's now more focussed on the drugs and girls than before (and thats saying something) you watch him, he's already fat and he'll just keep adding a couple of kegs everyyear. Buddy is on the downward spiral to being a joke. Just you wait.

And Pendles is a ******* gun.

Geez if Dangerfield is a sh%t truck and Buddy is a hack I'd hate to think what you think of our list.
Surely you rate Liam Jones up there he is going to be the next Wayne Carey apparently :eek:

He's as good as Selwood, Mitchell, Mundy, JPK etc just not Fyfe or Gary.

Pendles is one of the best players in the game. Easily Collingwoods best player.

I have unbelieveable faith in that opinion being fact.
There was innuendo surrounding Buddy's absence from the Swans team late in the season.

No need to dignify said murmurs - we have had enough recent problems at our own footy club without worrying about some other club's issues.

Pendlebury is a champ of the highest order, a great leader and a big reason they finally got a flag.

But you won't get Bruce blowing his beans in Dennis' bouffant over what he does on field.

That particular high praise is for Cyril and Carey etc.

Makes Pendles a much better player in my book even if he is a bit boring.

I keep on reading it as 'NAT FYFE Party'.

Every. Fricking. Time.

Not sure if I need to get my eyes or head checked. Rhetorical rumbling only, no need for feedback please :) #uploadlittlemexicangirl.jpeg

Personally I feel Sam Mitchell is the better player and had a better career than Pendlebury, but I wouldn't call Mitchell a Superstar, even though now he's probably now a top 5 all time Hawk.

But its just my opinion, and clearly I'm in the minority here when it comes to Pendlebury.

Got say, Pendles flopping/playing for frees in the last season and a half or so has really started to irk me as well. He should be better than that.

It's not those rumours specifically. Ita the similar rumours that have followed him his entire career. I dont believe there is ever smoke without fire.

That photo of him on the boat with all these bikini clad girls and NRL players days after moving to Sydney is an obvious indication of where his priorities lie.

You gotta stop paying attention to tabloid gossip...

Franklin was/is the most electrifying power forward of the past decade, he still does things for the Swans that make me stand up and go wow, I don't think we can dismiss his amazing footy prowess just because of things he may or may not have done in his personal life.

He may well be the last 100 goals in a season player we'll see for years and footy needs him back fit and firing on all cylinders, especially in the Sydney market which may be disenfranchised with the game after the disgraceful and indefensible treatment of Adam Goodes in his final season.

Sigh, the police probe into the alleged threat by Dustin Martin against the female channel 7 producer at a Japanese Restaurant has been dropped, and it looks like he'll get off scot free.

Something just stinks about the whole situation now, can't help but feel the poor victim was 'pressured' into dropping her complaint.

Its not possible that he did nothing wrong and this was blown up out of nothing?

Funny how being a star sportsman in this country allows you to do things like snort coke, brawl outside nightclubs, and threaten to kill women, and all you are is a silly larrikin who is a good bloke, but has just had a bit too much to drink and needs to be 'educated'.

The AFL might as well cancel their Women's round. There's no way anybody will take it or them seriously now.
