Universal Love Tim Broomhead

[PepperFace]

So does that mean put Tim in for one week but then sorry mate you won't be good enough to play against the big boys next week so trot off back to the VFL?
If he's good enough to play against "the dogs" he's good enough to play against the "tough team" the following week.

You said it. Give him a taste against the dogs and see how he stands up to it

 

[THATSGOLD]

He will play. See you Fasolo.

Because of this thread I now permanently think Broomhead's first name is Ben... Tim just sounds so foreign..

 

[BEEG]

Have not watched a VFL game all year and don't remember him last year.

I usually know a fair bit about the blokes we draft I have to say this guy and Ramsay I have no clue about.

Pretty excited to see what the hype is about.

Funny, that is exactly the same with me. Even though I know why we call him 'Ben', when I hear him called Tim my first thought is always "Why the f*** do they call him Tim Broomhead..."

Beams will be a late out Sunday so I think Broomy is a chance

 

[TradeDraft]

Not Named to Play Tommorow so being kept over for Sunday’s game as just in case

Yeah looks likely, what I have heard is Beams is fine he is just having a rest. Looks like Broomy will come in for him hope he plays well

So is Beams a Tad Sore?

So is Beams a Tad Sore?

Yeah but that is normal for players at this time of the year. Nothing that would force him out of a big game more a freshen up for the game against the Hawks I would think

 

[PepperFace]

I'm so excited. The great man broomy is likely to be sub tomorrow. I can already hear the roar he will receive when he comes on.....

Why play him in the VFL if they were planning a late out?

 

[PepperFace]

Why play him in the VFL if they were planning a late out?

He only played a handful of minutes. Nothing unusual

Exactly - It makes no sense at all.

 

[frizzle]

He only played a handful of minutes. Nothing unusual

According to drafted hawk he played plenty of minutes.

 

[unplugged]

He only played a handful of minutes. Nothing unusual

The VFL wrap says he played about 2.5 quarters and didn't play quite as well as they expect him to.

 

[blaze036]

He only played a handful of minutes. Nothing unusual

What happens if we have an injury in the first 3 minutes and suddenly Broomy has to come on after playing half a VFL game the day b4 and he is completely cooked at quarter time

 

[PepperFace]

We will see tomorrow then

"Ben Broomhead" is so 2013 ...

Ben Richmond got delisted, Ben Johnson retired, Ben Sinclair has been injured all year, Ben Reid has been injured (and re-injured) all year, and Ben Hudson's services haven't been required in the seniors.

"Ben" clearly doesn't work as a name anymore. Time to change Broomhead's name back to Tim.

I feel like we just got a new recruit

 

[bucksisbest]

Let's say this Beams thing is on the money.
If he is fine and we drop the game, questions will be asked. Fine line between clever management and making a major error.

I miss the multiple 'Bens'. A high point in the history of the Collingwood Football Club.

Grudgingly, I will call The Broom by his correct name from now on.

Its BROOM time!

 

[blaze036]

THE BROOOMMM IS PLAYING!!!

(as the sub I think )

Big shout out to myself for the insight when people doubted why he would run around in the 2nds for a few mins
