Would laugh so hard at those flogs on the Brisbane board if this happens. Please let it happen.

Be better if he came to Collingwood Instead

I wouldn't mind hearing from Abbott. Seems like an interesting character

Agree. I hope they are keeping him under wraps because he will tear a few teams a new a hole next year

In the VFL this year AFL next year.
Needs major qork done on his endurance from what I have read but most other parts of his game is A plus.

For Abbott it will come down to determination, and if he can push through what will be a very hard first year getting his endurance up to scratch.

If he is still running 8`11 beep tests he better do all that tearing in the 1st quarter coz you won't see him much after that

He is better than you so just keep giving your self likes ok with your other account on here

Oh he is better than me? Guess all opinions on Bigfooty are invalid then because we aren't elite AFL players

Genius

I hope these two crazy kids finally admit they love each other. You can cut the sexual tension with a butter knife!

He was running 8'11 in 2013, after missing most of the season when he went home to look after his Mum when she got diagnosed with cancer.

He wasn't tested this year, after playing a full season in the WAFL. His fitness won't be as good as most TAC kids, but he will be significantly better than the testing he has done over 12 months ago under exceptional circumstances.

As a side note, why do you insist on being so goddamn negative all the time? You're turning into TG MK II

Read my posts on all the new draftees which were positive .

I know he had excuses, but I could run an 8'11 beep test when I was 15 without any training for it. It's just a light jog for a few minutes...

As I said, that test was in 2013. All reports indicate he is much fitter now (he was working out in the gym instead of seeing if he got picked in the rookie draft ffs). The beep test from over 12 months ago is largely irrelevant now, so I'm not sure why you insist on going on about it.

Also, TG does the odd positive post too. Doesn't stop him, and you, being depressingly negative posters overall.

 

[Bard]

Yeh but he can play footy and you cant, Talk to me when you get 14.6 in a beep test ok

Why are you relying on personal attacks to form an argument? Surely you can think of something more intelligent.

inb4hypocrisy.

Ok i'll try be more positive

As a last point, being is the gym isn't really the issue, by all reports he is already huge.

I like picking him, but he needs to spend months and months just running

You know that there are these cool machines in the gym that can improve your endurance called bikes, treadmills and cross trainers right?

Going to the gym isn't just about pumping iron.

Popins just mad that know one else liked his/her nickname for Brenden Abbott

lol the big show

 

[Bard]

So considering we're all BigFooty appointed Club Legend's, we should head down to the Westpac Centre and tell Abbott what we think about how fat he is to his face.

 

[Bard]

you wouldn't have a pair to say that so why post it????

 

[Kappa]

back to the undermining people lol mate it must be hard for you being 26 and have to bag people who are better than you very sad when you havent seen the kid play a full year of football judging him on a beep test lol thats d###

I'm judging his fitness based on the evidence we have about his fitness

Do you even know what undermining means

fitness back in 2013 lol

 

[nahnah]

I use to get 10.5ish on the beep test and that use to be in the lower half at my school... We had a few run 15+ (one is a footballer now)

I think people are quick to take a negative view on a player before they actually know anything about them other than rumours.

That was over a year ago. I could improve my beep test plenty if you gave me 14months and a season in the wafl
