Squiggle tips Demons at 77% chance -- What's your tip? -- Team line-ups »
I suspect Kappa must post quite often on another board (one where his 'style' is appreciated more), and that's where the majority of those 'likes' come from!!Like you, 35 Daicos, Kappa boast a higher ratio of likes to posts. Obviously his views are appreciated by a significant number of posters. Tyler Brown is only in his second year and with his skinny frame he probably needs at least another season and pre season to develop a body capable of competing at AFL level. My viewing of last week's game at the pub was interrupted for lengthy periods of time by staff incompetence and disinterest in our viewing experience, with a quiz night taking precedence over football. Hopefully tomorrow offers greater opportunity to watch Tyler and others in action.
Don't see much of Thatsgold on the board anymore. I miss the trio of penguins.
Only if you cherry pick bad stats and leave out the positive ones. You know, like the 4 clearances, 4 score involvements and the great goal he kicked.It's incredibly negative to post someone's stats now
That's about where he's at this stage. I jumped into the front seat of Callum Brown's bandwagon early last year, only to find that the vehicle ran out of puff, and we all leaped off and clambered aboard Sier's more seasoned wagon instead.Raw potential to be Fyfe or a good ordinary player and just about anything in between at the moment, still a long way off but has shown some good signs.
Interesting responses to Tyler Brown.
Gets a bit of a push from the club, a little praise or a little encouragement. All for a young player.
Cue from some: let’s find ways to slap him around a bit.
I would rather hope that he has a more than solid career at Collingwood. If he goes to Nth Melbourne or elsewhere, I'm sorry, but I wish him much less success than I do if he stays with us.Callum Brown will have a solid all career ....probably at a club like north melbourne ....but let's hope
Now that I’m reading the article, I take it that they said he has some aspects of the type of game Fyfe has, not that he’s Fyfe or going to be.Going on Performance they are Overhyping hm a Bit
FFS SV, much as I love you dearly, we can't eternally circle jerk together on BF, mutually climaxing over every scrawny recruit that gets a kick or goal in the season's first or second practice match. Without a bit of friction (none of which is outrageously unreasonable in this thread), this forum would be deadly dull. I quite enjoy the parry and thrust, Kappa claiming dour stats then Apex pointing out those he'd missed etc etc. It's called 'discussion' and it's more interesting if we all agree to potentially disagree with each other within acceptable limits.Now that I’m reading the article, I take it that they said he has some aspects of the type of game Fyfe has, not that he’s Fyfe or going to be.
But hyperbole and footy and media and supporters and social media all are peas in a pod.
You’re right all but on everything (well except about being in a circle; on that I’ll pass).FFS SV, much as I love you dearly, we can't eternally circle jerk together on BF, mutually climaxing over every scrawny recruit that gets a kick or goal in the season's first or second practice match.

Now that is good stock!You’re right all but on everything (well except about being in a circle; on that I’ll pass).
That said, you’re right.
Tyler Brown IS Nat Fyfe.
His fame will last at least as long as his presidential (John Tyler*) namesake’s living grand children go.
* John Tyler the 10th US President (1841 - 1845).
** two of his grandchildren are still alive!!!!
I don’t really think he’ll be in any serious consideration until the second half of the year, and even then it would only be due to injuries.I'm actually quite excited by him, its a very positive sign that he's still in the side for JLT2. Doubt he debuts before round 5 though.
Being in the JLT2 over Wills and Daicos is good for Tyler but none too promising for the football futures of the latter two, with Crocker and C Brown also preferred ahead of them.I don’t really think he’ll be in any serious consideration until the second half of the year, and even then it would only be due to injuries.
Being in JLT2 over the likes of Daicos and Wills though, shows the coaches rate him. They clearly want to give him as much senior exposure as possible to try and kickstart his development through the guts in the VFL this year.
I wouldn’t be reading too much in to those selections.Being in the JLT2 over Wills and Daicos is good for Tyler but none too promising for the football futures of the latter two, with Crocker and C Brown also preferred ahead of them.

I am not reading much more into these selections than I am that of Sier in the VFL.I wouldn’t be reading too much in to those selections.
Could you please describe the similarities between the two players, Dave?His style is Similar to Fyfe especially now he has gone into the Midfield. Be Great he be as good as Fyfe but I not been building up expectations for him that far......YET

I see so many similarities between the two it's quite uncanny. At this stage Fyfe is still ahead on the count of experience (and that Brownlow win, of course), but by the time their careers are over I expect they will have records that are pretty evenly matched.Tall and Long Bodies for Midfielder and Tyler could grow into his Body like his old man Gavin Did
It's unusual to find doppelgängers who are completely different in every way, but in this case, we clearly have.This forum is not working well because among other things it won't let me quote a poster in a reply.
Anyway, it seems that apart from Fyfe's Brownlow medal, his 153 games and 132 goals, as well as a significant age difference, that he and Tyler are to all intensive purposes, like twins, albeit from different wombs, in almost every other respect!
Somehow l don’t think his grandchildren are still alive, they be what 150yrs old plus, maybe great, great grandchildren.You’re right all but on everything (well except about being in a circle; on that I’ll pass).
