Past #39: Leigh Harding - selected with #13 in 2000 RD - retired at end of 2010 season - coaches at BL

[RoyalBlue]

Keeping in mind Laidley's game plan and his habit of conservative team selections, do you think that Davey would have played many games for us?

Depends on the raft of mysterious factors on which Laidley judges players.

So, judging by the length of Davey's hair, probably not.

Hmmm. So it's Laidley's fault that Gibbo got so badly concussed ?? He took away Gibbo's buffer zone.

The man does apparently value sensible hair.

New tips are ill-advised and will see you staring down the barrell of 6 months worth of 2's footy.

I'm sure he put the kybosh on Jess' sexy "Let's Get Physical" look from earlier in the year.

I think mcmahon has taken his spot,the other 3 are crumbers not players that lead up and mark it.

JYD would have had a meltdown over shagga's "the last samurai" do a while back if thats true.

Deserves a contract based on what?

Has had enough chances.

How's he had chances? He's been out for a year after a reco

 

[NimChief]

With him missing matches all the way into at least week one of their finals if he gets three weeks - how do you suppose he'll be selected to play for us?

It's like how Thomas, Brown and Sansbury keep getting picked. It can't be explained, but it will happen some how.

That's probably the most accurate statement. McMahon does everything Harding did and more, he can play anywhere and most importantly, he's very accurate.

The 89 games and 6 years on the list before this season even began.

 

[Devil Fish]

Did he get suspended in the VFL? If not, is he a chance to replace Thomas?

 

[Urmoe]

Yep he got 1 week. Now inelegible to win the Liston.

Was he even a chance for the Liston Medal?

djars!

 

[MARIO TURCO 18]

Very lucky to only get one.
At the time it happened i immediatly thought it was 3 or 4.
The door is still slightly opened for him.

 

[giantroo]

Very good news. Now lets see hards come into the side next week against the blues.

Um, no.

 

[wooostace]

Let's make a deal GR: If Thomas, Campbell and Whyman all go down this week, Harding can play against the Blues.

If they don't each gather them selves 15 possesions each, then Harding plays.

And Thommo...

 

[wooostace]

Ah I see, Thommo's quite apt in playing the small forward role on one leg.

 

[Rhombus]

An absolutely unbelievable decision in that he got only 1 week.

2 or 3 years ago it would have been a 6 weeker unquestionably.

A similar incident to the Russell Morris/Jim Edmond incident.

Good luck to him though - good to see him back & healthy.

 

[bellzy]

Ah I see, Thommo's quite apt in playing the small forward role on one leg.

Would still be a better shot than Turtle.

 

[The Other Dean]

Was he even a chance for the Liston Medal?

Sharp as a bowling ball.
