Shane Woewodin

[Lonie_from_50]

I think he is heavily underrated by the magpie fans (as shown on this board) and is rated by the MEDIA as a player. The MEDIA have been on his back, but still at time overrates him.

what do you think...

He is under rated on this board a bit i think, but i might just be referring to the ones that dislike him and forget the people that do. We dont make habit of bragging about him, but he is a star. he was in our top 6 or 7 players for the season last year and he has easily been top 3 this year to date, so he is earning his keep. I love his footy (except early 2003 as my friends may recall) and always have. He is rated by the media, especially this season. The media jumped on him last year about his application to each game at the start of the year and they were right in labelling him a little heartless in his approach.Ever since he has improved his game and increased his endeavour. Further more he has become a leader. I rate him very highly, exactly how i think he should be rated.

As for his support on this board, i think he has some. I think those that have said he isnt any good were just spewing ignorant crud but i think the rest of the board would rate him, they just dont talk about him overly much.

Shane Woewodin won the brownlow fair and square, he was in my top 3 for Player of the Year Votes in 2000 and the Demon won it as one of the most suprised wins. It was suprising because he was underrated by the football world.
If you are not reffering to the Brownlow Medal then the free kicks count evens itself out with 9 frees for and 9 frees against for 2004

Well he should be performing consistently because he is in the prime of his career but he is hardly playing matchwinning stuff. He is more solid than star and sometimes goes missing when the heat is turned up. His lack of pace can hurt at times.

He suprised me when he kept up with Shaun Burgoyne earlier this year. It was a great chase. Yet he still managed to kick a goal from a snap after running 50 metres.

yes he kept up with him, i was just stating the obvious that he kept the same spped as Shaun Burgoyne, come on. I know you were watching the ****in game and stop being a dumbass prick and even underrating his speed. He might not be as quick as Brent Harvey, Jarad Crouch or James Walker but you have quoted this to me before
guess_who quotes "Come on, you know even you and me can run faster than he does".

Don't deny it guess_who. You said that and you WROTE DOWN on a piece of paper 4 weeks ago that Shane Woewodin has his last chance or will be dropped (wrote down on 14/5/2004). I have got the evidence in my room.

You are one of those people who think Tarrant shouldn't be a top 30 player and think that Shane Woewodin should not have won the Brownlow. You might rate people differently but those two statements to me are complete garbage!
