I for one am not complaining with O'Reillys selection......

 

[Tzatziki_Man]

Good too see O'Reilly in, shame that Dea is a late withdrawal, has played pretty good since returning.

 

[MOTiger]

but fans favorite Farmer is still playing......

WHAT THE...:eek

Still trying to find My Farmers photo's thread....

 

[McGun]

Any reason why?

 

[Croat tiger]

Interesting, thanks for the heads up.

 

[Bojangles17]

not suprised , could see his form was building at VFL...injuries set him back this year otherwise im sure we would have seen a whole lot more of irish

 

[Hipster Doofus]

Thought Dea has been solid since coming into the line-up

How the **** is Farmer still in??

Good luck Irish

 

[discofan]

Going to the game - really looking fwd to watching young 'Irish' play - big fan - reckon he showed heaps of potential last yr - go Jimmy boy - and go Tiges !!

 

[juss]

Dea injured?

Hope Dea is out because of a niggle and not form related. If that were the case I'd rather see Farmer out and O'Reilly in.

Thought O'Reilly looked okay last year, good to see him get another taste of AFL.

 

[BILC]

Looking forward to seeing Jimmy strut his stuff.

 

[Gentlemen]

I'm pretty sure Dea has a small niggle, he throws himself at every contest, you're going to get sore doing that.

Great to see Irish in, looked pretty good in the few games he played last year, haven't seen much Coburg so I don't know how much he's improved.

Am I the only person on this board that doesn't think that Farmer is a bad footballer? After watching the Melbourne match again, which he was criticized so much for, I noticed some very good acts done by him. He spoiled very well, especially on larger bodies such as Watts and his long kicking again was a specialty. That tackle were he managed to avoid the ball being spilled was magnificent too. Reality is, he is the best that we have at the moment and he is only 21 years old too.

His disposal was sloppy.

Yes it was a good tackle but in a lot of ways it was also disappointing, he got to the ball first and refused to take it. You can see the ball hit him first but he simple let it bounce off him into the melbourne players hand.

Says everything that he refused to grab the ball first. But reacted to everyone else.

The best what? What position? He's not the best. We have better options than him for every position on the ground.

 

[Mr Magic]

I don't mind O'reilly, glad he is back in.

I am not sure his is a backman though.

Would have liked to see Dea remian for development purposes as well

the farm boy may not be the most skilled but he cracks the whip, gets the show ponies into formation, and rounds up all the headless chooks

average player, decent leader from what i understand

Well summed up. Farmer mightn’t be the most skilful player on our list, but their aren’t to many who are as hard as nails at every contest ,and who keeps his direct opponent in check like he does. So many here have the sooks at his inclusion, but I reckon one of his biggest fans is Dimma, and for a good reason.

Well on current form alone...he couldnt outrun a hadless chook...

And as for Dimma picking farmboy...he also didnt pick tuck when Tucky was in form...says plenty about his selections...their headless as well...
