Mega Thread The Former Player Thread: Part 2

[Olian]

Jones made a blunder to leave

Couldve just stayed as depth here

Cooked his career

First season at Saints was decent but then injuries form killed off the next 5 years.

He was desperate to get home. Always a flight risk.

 

[RilesMacca]

Oh man, his favourite player.

bedford is going to be so pissed.

Welcome to this thread
Wilber , Oiile and Mount

Sad to say but kinda always felt like the former two were destined to end up here. Would love for them to go well at Carlton along with Hewett.

The Guardian's review was similar: https://www.theguardian.com/books/2...k-review-novel-former-afl-player-brandon-jack.

Not a fan of his

Blake Leidler has signed with Surrey Park to play in the 2nd division of the EFNL.

 

[ashep]

Not a fan of his

Still worried he was giving away trade secrets on how to beat us?

 

[Neverwas]

I actually think his career trajectory is eerily similar to Jack Buller. Picked up while playing in the WAFL. Spent a few years in our reserves but kept getting injured at the wrong time. Was eventually able to get a couple of games together but collingwood made them offers that were too good to refuse.
Collingwood loves our emerging talls.

I have a very astute friend who is an avid Collingwood supporter and also an osteopath. He is also still playing football in a decent standard comp as a ruck/ chb.

He has a big smile on his face about getting Buller. Thinks it's Cameron mark 2. I tend to agree somewhat.

I remember thinking there was something seriously wrong with Longmire's assessment of Cameron when he dropped him after one senior game against the Suns. We were flogged that day, but it was not Cameron's fault.

His kicking was and is, absolutely elite, especially for goal, he is an excellent athlete, and has the full range of skills a ruckman needs. Injuries were not in my opinion, the reason he was not given a chance. All these qualities were on perfect display back then.

I think that Longmire just didn't like him personally or just couldn't see the obvious.

Nevewas have you seen the latest bio on the Swans socials

Yes, I have thanks Bedders.
