jon hay
jade rawlings
perhaps hawthorn realised something by getting rid of them both
lol

 

[Pie eyed]

North Melbourne...the whole team today...what a whacking...seriously though Collingwood recovered from a crap game.
Hawthorn recovered from a crap game.
But North was a in a league of crappiness not experienced in many years.

It, who suggested Michael Wilson, is a troll of the worst kind

so true, if anything michael wilson had it, lost it with the 2 knees, then got it back again

the complete opposite of what this thread is about

 

[RedBull1975]

Bowen Lockwood

 

[Chewy]

Dead right I'll disagree.

Have a look at his 2004 Grand Final

He was one of the Brownlow favourites in 2003.

Absolute magic player

Like I said, probably a bit harsh for me to say he "lost it"

True, Wanganeen was awesome in 2003. That was probably his best season.

I just reckon that whatever respect he built up amongst football fans from 1992-1996, he just kind of lost after his move to Port. Nothing to do with anti-Victorian bias. If anything that works in his favour as we used to see the live interstate games more than Victorian games on TV (opposite to nowadays)

I reckon in most peoples' opinion, he went from champion status to "very good player"
He probably salvaged his reputation as a champion with his 2003 season and his second half goals in the 2004 Grand Final.

A.Jakovich?

bad back injury

 

[the fly]

Bowen Lockwood

Didn't he struggle with a bad back injury in his last few years at Port?

 

[Mr.X]

Chris Tarrant - showed something but has never truly delivered

 

[RedBull1975]

Stuart Dew
Gavin Wanganeen
Johnson x 2 - Essendon

You got no credibility, you have said Wilson, and now your saying 2 more Port players for no reason.

I thought Michael Wilson was pretty solid on Friday night too. He is still a solid player in a good team.

damn straight, he played a crucial role winning the game against the Hawks and didnt get any recognition.

He is arguably one of the most underrated players in the comp. Many Port fans will have him over anyone who has put on a Power guernsey.

 

[BBFFC]

I would say Des Headland- 5th in the brownlow in '02, premiership player at a young age. Now in the wilderness.

 

[Esky Lid]

Daniel Metropolis. 8 ?? Goals on Debut for West Coast ... soon ended up a defender at Fremantle.

 

[True Bluebagger]

surprised no one has mentioned Matthew Allan

20 Brownlow votes and All Australian in 1999 to complete and utter dud

He had a very bad stress fracture in his foot and he really struggled to get back to fitness and then he was deregistered for his part in taking cash outside his normal payment and IIRC played only a handful of games after that before being traded to Essendon.

 

[RedBull1975]

The reason is they play for PAPS

Michael Wilson
Gavin Wanganeen (97-05)
Bowen Lockwood
Stuart Dew
Danyle (hard ball get) Pearce 2007
Shaun (I love taggers) Burgoyne
Warren Treadrea (2006-2007)

 

[Roughie]

That's because your list is shiit.

I dont know if you've heard yet, but supposedly you guys lost this weekend are out of the finals !!!! And I also heard on the grapevine that Port advanced to the prelims


In other news the crows training facilities have moved to the closest lawn bowl greens.

 

[claf-43]

Funny this thread was great till he came along posting absolute rubbish

 

[lion_gooner]

dylan mc laren would have to be one

gone from being a premiership player to being delisted by carlton of all clubs

He never played in a premiership. And never had it to lose.

 

[chaddles]

britney spears

I like her a lot more now she has stopped singing and just become a ho like Paris. More interesting.

 

[Broadside]

Paul Meldrum...remember he was leading the Brownlow by a number of votes in 1988-ish but knew he couldn't win cos he was dropped by Carlton later in the year. Never really got it back.

A couple of people mentioned Adam Heuskes, good call, he was brilliant on his day.

Dale Lewis, but maybe he had injuries. Brad Boyd, also cruelled by injury. Was a gun.
