Rate the Melbourne Castaways.

[Bartram_Class]

In terms of your personal grudge against them for leaving, even if they were traded away. So in an ideal world, if Beamer could line one of them up next season, who would you want him to hit the most?

Possible names worth considering -

CJ
Jolly
Armstrong (though he is currently unsigned)
Carroll
Thompson
Bassett
Simmonds
Johnstone
Gill

Can't think of any more but feel free to add them on your lists at your discretion. They must all have at some point been on our list though.

I'll kick things off shall I?

1. Thompson (Mummys boy, still love the game where Godfrey touched him up)
2. Carroll (just because it would be funny)
3. CJ (Not a good enough player to deserve the attention he is getting)
4. Johnstone (nothing against TJ, but he'd be an easy target)
5. Jolly (ditto TJ, but don't think he was good enough to get a premiership)
6. Simmonds (soft spot after the battering he received in the 2000 GF, good player)
6. Bassett/Gill (Barely played a game between them, but if it means helping us win in Adelaide, go for it)
7. Armstrong (always liked Moonwalker, was pleased to see him help the Eagles over the line. Saw him at one of our games a couple of years back)

definately CJ.
why would you have anything against Travis? he was a club champion and im sure he would of rather stayed at the dees.

CJ by a mile, deserves a monster clothes line.

 

[KickLongTackleHard]

CJ as long as it's in the VFL after he realises he isn't as good as he thinks he is.
Can I add Phil Read in the WAFL, just cause I hate him?

Supermercado won't be happy when he sees the Read hate.

I've expressed it before, and will express it again. I'm sure it will trigger a typically witty Super comment. No pressure..

 

[davey_magik]

Thompson and CJ.

Club gave them everything it could and they walk away when they become decent players (Thommo was quality in 2004 pre-foot injury but wasn't anywhere near what he is now).

 

[DemonErrol1964 - dees]

I don't wish the castaways any immediate pain. When we win the Premiership over the next 5 year span will be pain enough.

Judd, Warnock and Johnstone deserve to rot at Carlton.

 

[booshboy]

CJ followed by Carrol, CJ because he walked away from the club after we gave him everything, and it's particularly dissapointing seeing though his Dad was a gun for the club. And Carrol because he alledgedly ridiculed Neitz. No one ridicules the great man...no one

 

[Supermercado]

Clay Sampson?

As of the end of the season the official Philthy mourning period is over so I'm comfortable with the hate. I won't even point out that 3 years of Philth = 3 years of finals and the next 2 years without have equalled 2 years of slops.

 

[The Dr]

Slightly off topic, but I sincerely hope Judd, Warnock and CJ all run into eachother at a Visy Park 'ambassadors' meeting and each do their knees.....

 

[Flashhh]

Scott Thompson definently.

May not qualify as a castaway but would love a bit of Daniel Breese action after the hysteria he created for little or no games. Ditto Rogers and David Robbins who "starred" in the NAB (Wizard) Cup and was the next big thing.

 

[Headless]

Chris Johnson and Scott Thompson (although still like him a lot as a player).

The rest I don't mind too much about, especially TJ who didn't want to leave and apparently broke down when he had to clean out his locker.
