Retired #21: Dyson Heppell - Goodnight, sweet prince. What a legend! 🤙 - 24/8

[RedmanWasHere]

Can almost hear Sheeds whispering in the background..."At least he looks like a footballer now"

As opposed to:

Early career Harvs.
2001 Solomon.
Anderson, early career Grenvold and O'Brien.
Van Der Haar.

 

[JETTA7]

Not much more to be said.

 

[Lance Uppercut]

who gives a **** what Teffy thinks? Thread title, don't like

 

[daz17]

Pretty negative title. Would rather focus on the positives.

The sods that keep bringing up North supporters in Essendon threads.

Bloody tiresome.

Pretty negative title. Would rather focus on the positives.

The thread titles just reflect the conversation.

People started going on about North supporters (again), so I made it reflect that.

 

[Doss]

Kong is right. Who gives a flying f*** what Teffy or mufassa say? Their bias is obvious, they will never give Heppell a fair go. Discussing their rubbish just gives them what they want. They'll always call Heppell soft no matter what, we just need to give accept that and stop giving them the satisfaction of expending so much energy responding to their rubbish.

Half the fun of trolling for those knobs is getting people caught up in tedious arguments.

 

[VelvetSledge]

Everyone should know by now that this is kid is, as agreed by all his peers and fellow players/coaches, the best young player in the league.

There's no denying it.

Here's one for Lance Uppercut

Hepp or Fyfe?

Hepp has nicer hair

Jesus h, Kong, that is a doozy.

But I'm gonna have to go with the knife. Fyfe for me, not many if any I'd take over him

 

[keepzitreal]

if selectively pulling out means he doesn't get hurt.. I'm all for it..

 

[Lord Nicholson]

Hepp has nicer hair

/argument

Ehhh.... debatable.

 

[vast]

Right now Fyfe easily.

 

[Duckworth]

Fyfe at this point in time. Unless we can have both?

 

[vast]

Pendlebury was soft early on as well. He still doesnt go head first into a contest.

 

[daz17]

Now this is a better title.
I choose Fyfe.

 

[daz17]

Imagine if we didn't trade pick 16 for Mark Williams and picked Fyfe..
Knowing Dudoro we would have picked Koby Stevens.

Shut up shut up shut up.

 

[vast]

Imagine if Melbourne used pick 1 on Fyfe instead of scully.

Dodoro said on record that we would've taken Carlisle either way ffs! I AM SICK OF THIS STUPID DISCUSSION EVERY TIME FYFE GETS ****ING MENTIONED

 

[Jade]

Imagine if Melbourne used pick 1 on Fyfe instead of scully.

Fyfe would have been disgusted by the weak culture and moved to GWS?

 

[vast]

Only if they gave his dad a job too.

 

[Kermit D]

Heppell or Fyfe? Does this answer it?

How can you be out of thw contest if you keep your feet?

I'm not a fan of questioning any ones hardness in the Mickey mouse competition that is the NAB cup.

When 'keeping your feet' means you don't get to the contest at all, as happened in the incident I was talking about. Obviously most people on here don't think this is an issue with Heppell, and I hope that's the case - I'm just saying I've seen him do it a few times when I really think it was turn to go and take a hit (and to clarify, he's been superb with anything in the air - it's the 50/50 ball on the deck, and his wussy tackling, that I'm concerned with).

ANYWAY, enough on that. Fyfe or Heppell? Nat for me, with the only issue being his injury record.

 

[The Bomb]

Heppell and Fyfe both won AFLCA best young players. so as long as we have 1 of them.

Reading so many on BF a team is better off with a hard nut like Lonergan than a classy player like Heppell.
