Played him in cricket. I didn't acknowledge him because he is shit.

He got five-fer and didn't smile.

Then he went out in the first over and hung himself.

True story.
 
Never liked him. Had potential thats for sure, but his game did not improve over the years he was at the club. Watching games (besides his 31 disposal blinder) was poor and just seemed to be lost. Good luck Richmond.

Jamie Bennell has shown exactly why I'd take bets he will not start Round 1 and he will not be on our list in 2013. Just no appetite for it on a day where he, among others, needed to prove himself. Disappointing.
 
Okay so i got Jamie Bennell for the reviews per game. ( Not worrying about doing the putrid round robin style games )

Expectations for 2012 To start in the 18, he has the potential. The run he provides from HB or down the wing is crucial for our gameplan. He can also crum the ball inside the 50. Jamie needs to back himself more though and gain a bit of confidence. He needs to tally a consistent 20 possesions, with Davey hopefully spending more time at HF Jamie could fill the role Bailey was trying to imploy with Davey.

I'll be back when the real footy starts:rolleyes:

He will improve.

With Bartram his only real competition for a BP spot, he could really find a niche for himself.
 
Missing Austin Wonaeamirri?

Just thought I'd pose this question.

The loss of Wona has meant that the X factor and defensive efforts he brought to the forward line evaporated. I know he was never a champion but gee I think you guys miss the characteristics he brought to your team.

Thoughts?
 
Re: Missing Austin Wonaeamirri?

We're missing a small forward in general. Wonna last year wasn't great, didn't have a preseason and too many turtles because he spent so much time at home. Now, 2008-era Wonna, that would be a sight for sore eyes.

Absolutely. We genuinely do not have a small forward right now. I'm honestly thinking we'll have to draft two - an actual pick and a rookie prototypical indigenous type.

Very good thread mate - and yeah, missing him in so many ways. I'll never forget what he did for us during 2008, especially those two games in particular...

Re: Missing Austin Wonaeamirri?

I think we miss the man more than the player.
 
Re: Missing Austin Wonaeamirri?

Having a good small forward running around the feet of Clark and Howe (and to a lesser extent Petterd, Dunn etc.) would definitely go a long way toward raising our final scores, which are currently fairly abysmal.

I'm not really up with the latest trade/draft gossip, are the any genuine/interesting prospects available?

Re: Missing Austin Wonaeamirri?

Loved him but he's just not cut out for it. The game is faster and a lot fitter and he has been obese for most of his life.
 
Re: Missing Austin Wonaeamirri?

Isnt there a Garlett rated pretty high in this years draft?

and on Lawerence - he looked really good last year for casey crumbing around Fev, in person he is a good size pretty tall 6ft ish.

I reckon we need to give Kelvin Lawrence a go. Our season's shot, might as well.

Would be terrific to see him get a run but that would be our fourth promoted rookie for the year... and who goes on the LTI to accommodate him?

We do miss Aussie but, as mentioned before, we just miss a genuine crumber. Will be forever pissed off at Maric for not taking a role that was handed to him on a platter. Could have been anything and ended up being nothing.

If his head and heart were in it, he would've made it I reckon. Much like David Rodan. Had the ability but unfortunately for us football just wasn't important enough. A fit, firing Wona would be handy right about now.
 
Re: Missing Austin Wonaeamirri?

Would love to have him back in the red and blue. Unfortunately his heart just wasn't in it, especially after the passing of his old man.

Quality crumbing forward will be high on our shopping list come draft/trade time I would think.

True - whereas the way Maric's going now, I wouldn't be surprised if he's gone from the league altogether at the end of this year...

Yeah but he doesnt play much deep forward as a crumber... more wing high half forward atm.
 
Re: Missing Austin Wonaeamirri?

Wille Rioli from NT kicked 2 on the weekend against Vic Metro and was named 3rd best, attends Xavier College and is a real livewire. Can take a hanger, strong through the core (he is a bit pudgy) and has phenomenal skills.
