The Michael Barlow SuperCoach Memorial Thread

[The Bear]

Post your memorial comments here:

He was a good player, always outscoring those who should have done better. I remember placing him in my side before round one with limited expectations. $111,400 seemed like a fair price to pay. What a bargain. We stuck through thick and thin, while others saw him as a cash cow, I always knew him to be the best of keepers.

Michael Barlow...you will be missed! RIP from my 2010 SC team.

Barlow, how your price was low.
Equal second for the Brownlow...




Yeah, I have nothing. Hope he recovers well though.

what a wonderful year from the man who started his afl career later than most

absolutely proved that people like recruiters should focus on the positive, rather than the negative about what a player can and can't do

good to hear that it is a clean break and get well soon

a memorial thread lol - sorry mick theyve written you off already.

seriously the stuck thru thick & thin comment - i cant remember him having 'a thin' !!

any sub 100 score was still good enough to increase his value, so anyone who had him was crazy to trade him out.

ashes to ashes.

 

[Hot Tiges]

If it's anything like Chrissy Newman's injury well, Newman is playing better now

Wasn't expecting to trade him out now, more like one of the first upgrades to the midfield. Proved me wrong big time.

Good luck on his return.

Goodbye my lover... Goodbye my friend!!

 

[Big Fozza]

loved by all and will be dearly missed.

He was with us for just such a short time, but lived life to the full. RIP

If he misses 2011, is he cheap again in 2012?

 

[OneEyedHawk]

Gone too soon.

R.I.P.

I doubt he'll miss 2011, but if he did, I guess he would be cheap.

I guess time will tell, really.

At least he's paved the way for more VFL players to get their opportunity.

Great player who will revolutionise the drafting of older talent (along with Pods of course)
You delivered the scores I wanted and at times made my team look OK as opposed to the steaming pile of cr@p that is the rest of my team.

After all that you also managed to leave suddenly, giving a quick kick to the balls to all those who have only few trades left and are now just an injury or 2 from devastation.

Get well. Apologies for next year but I wont be buying you as you will be just too damned expensive.

probs wont pick him ever again now due to this injury..

If he can get over his injuries and doesn't play next year, he's a bargain, is he not?

Regardless, hope he recovers well.

 

[dUkezz]

yeh but players generally arent the same, defs wont be touching him next year, wasnt gonna get him due to being a 600k player plus next year but not the injury helped my decision
