Id say youve made his head too big but after this weekend he’s probably got a big one.

Credit to Woosh for reigniting his career. Never had issues with effort, just got caught out with his pace down back.

Been great for us with his defensive efforts up front,

I can fix his head, but I'm not touching the big one

Member since '73, we have had some absolute nutters play for us on my watch. Pound for pound Mark Baguley is the equal of any Essendon footballer I've watched in terms of toughness/bravery.

Harves owns the pound for pound title imo but yeah I'm happy for Bags to be in that discussion. Copped way too much criticism up until that last game for his defensive work & then for the Lamb bs. I challenge any smaller back in the league to be doing much better than what Bags was given what was going on up the field so it's been great to see him have a good game & get some recognition for his talents.

Thank you Mr Baguley for your contribution.

It’s actually a seriously smart move. They’ve given him an effort role, and the one thing you know with Baugley is that his effort will never wane

That tap to Tippa was absolutely brilliant.

Deserves a gif.

Probably the play of the day, yet I'm not even sure it counts as a stat!

Garry Lyon said the same thing in the commentary.
I’m impressed he beat two blokes bigger than him.

Ahh, sarcasm, the lowest form of wit.

I'm guessing Bags' was a defensive role on Tuohy?

I thought it was Stewart predominantly... but granted I was pretty pissed by the end of the game

It should count as 2 stats for both great efforts

Garry Lyon applauded him for halving the contest... um, he didn't halve it douchebag, he pantsed both opponents and dished it directly to Walla!

I love this man, who could ever want him dropped

 

[Bunk Moreland]

Really didn’t have much business being near an AFL ground.

What a reinvention, what hard work.

 

[table tennis]

Been playing at the wrong end his whole career! This bloke was dead, for an hour and they have revived him with gentle cpr!

 

[Pweter]

Whilst I didn't sink the boots in as hard as some, I'd written him off.

Love it when our players throw it back in my face with interest.

 

[Towno78]

4 year deal?

 

[Kakkle]

Couldn't care less how 'old' he is if he continues to contribute like that.

 

[jmoo wan]

sneaky chance for the coleman?

 

[kelvin_sheedy]

Just goes to show if you have a few AFL attributes its not that difficult to outperform Josh Green.
