WAFL performances part 2

[BeinPurplenGreen]

Why should this thread be any different to most of the other ones?

This whole board has gone from entertaining and informative to being pretty much just a big self-referential circle jerk, with most threads centering around a few boring trends:

a) someone criticises a player and is then crucified by that players supporters.

or

b) someone criticises a player to goad the supporters of that player into a bitchfest.

Sure, sometimes it is fun to get reactions from people, but the vitriol being hurled at Mundy, Hinkley, Headland, Dodd, Suban etc all stinks of petty oneupmanship.

Honestly, having not been able to see a game for the past 6 weeks I actually thought Suban was pretty junk based on reading this board. From what I saw of him on the weekend it is this board that is junk.

How about a bay13 thread where all the monkeys can hurl as much s**t at each other as they like? It couldn't hurt.

Eloquently put, Blutes. Though I think there has been a fair bit of support for Suban on here from most of the Horde since the season started, and especially in the last 4 weeks or so.

Of course, if you think things have fallen away that badly on here, perhaps you could start a few threads yourself to help improve the standard??

More power to the puddinghat too, BTW.

Stop ruining this thread with mindless bitching

I dunno about "ruining". It suddenly got interesting.

As for Drum, he's gone. About the only thing he gets up to on game day is reacting to to opposition players piss taking.

 

[Stronzo]

I'll take that bet Stronz.

Lets make it a pint

I believe Big Footy etiquette is to wait until a player's in their second year before tearing them to shreds for not living up to the expectations of super-stardom put on them in their first.

It wouldn't surprise me if Mayne was foxing so he can retire a Freo great.

 

[E Shed]

The majority of posters here have had nothing but praise for the way Suban's gone about it in his maiden year.

 

[SupersonicDocker]

CHeck your facts. Suban has been nothing but praised.

Anyone been keeping an eye on Trevor Oliver?

A lot of talk about him being the next Greg Broughton type who makes the transition easily as a mature age recruit. Anyone know how tall he is?

Interesting. Could be another handy late pick up. However i was under the impression his knees were shot. Apparently there was even an article on his chances in the draft

 

[Mundy]

Yeah, both knees give him too much grief and he has said himself he could not make it in the next level.

Shame, has some great skills and is a very solid backman.

 

[bigkev bleeds purple]

I'll take that bet Stronz.

I'm glad you took him on Stronz, I wasn't convinced you were right until Dom posted this. You're a dead certainty now.

A WCE thread on him , with links, commentary as best kick in WAFL, but knees as discussed

[yakamoto]

Looks a good player in the WAFL but standing at 18cm is possibly a bit short for the AFL.

 

[Stronzo]

Yep, I'll be having the most expensive Pint I can find. I know they sell Hoegaarden in the city for aroun $15 so that's looking the best option at this stage

You said a pint, you didn't say a pint of what.

I like your thinking Moo. A pint of cognac it is then

Clayton Hinkley: 13k 9h 22d 5m 11t 1ho 5i50

Looks like Hinkley will be back in purple next week, and rightfully so. An all round great game by the look of those stats, and 11 tackles isn't bad for someone who is supposed to be soft...

great game?

I thought he was solid in a dominant team, not great. Still buggered up plenty of plays and had some horrid turnovers.

He's frustrating. At times he looks silky but he simply doesn't have the composure to execute his skills consistently.
