DW EH.
When the news filters through of the perks the Pies and big interstate clubs offer their recruits, Phillips will quickly realize what it’s like to be a North Melbourne footballer and then the arrogance will turn into a chip on his shoulder.
And tbh we don’t want that to happen. Accepting inferiority and using it as motivation may have worked in past generations but does not in the modern age.

From all we have read , Will is meant to be a shinboner.

Are you referring to the historical context or the modern bastardised version (social diversity, community engagement, etc.)?
 
Snake merry Xmas, the blue collar version. There is something about this kid that has me see nose over the footy

Cheers buddy, have a good day.

I agree with you regarding his playing style. I just hope he gets left alone to focus on football.
 
So it is decided he's up himself because someone saw him at a shopping centres?
Yes and any other interests however mild should be cast aside, especially if they involve helping people.

Correctamundo.

He's a footballer for the time being, not Nelson Mandela.

He can get around to that stuff in 15 years time (provided he can dodge the scanlonites for that long)
 
That wasn't what EH was saying.

It's a huge overreaction on what was a simple observation.

It is what EH said, he saw him at at a shopping centre and he seemed arrogant.

Taken way out of context though.

Personally I think people should be able to express their opinion without a huge pile on.

Righto then

For instance, all that fishing nonsense? Having families? Just holding those players back. Not enough football focus.

As long as it's not club related in their spare time then it's all good.

I am clearly referring to the political recruitment of players for the furthering of certain administrators political aspirations. Y'know, filling young impressionable blokes heads up with crap and then pressuring them to be spokesmen.

I don't want any more Majak/Brown scenarios.

Wasn't Majak's political recruitment after he was delisted? And not through any sort of NMFC connections?
