Lindsay White (GEEL / Sth MELB)

47. 540, 142 Lindsay White (GEEL, Sth.M)

White was regarded as one of the best forwards of the 1940's. He was fast on the lead, was a strong overhead mark, he kicked 67 goals in 1941, his debut season for Geelong, but at the end of the year Geelong went into temporary recess due to travel restrictions during the Second World War and White transferred to South Melbourne.

He spent two seasons at South, kicking 111 goals in 25 games and won the league goalkicking in 1942.

White returned to Geelong for the start of the 1944 season, played through and was named club captain in 1948. In that year he again won the league goalkicking, with 86.

Lindsay White played until halfway through the 1950 season, retiring due to a debilitating injury to his achilles tendon.

Some big names to pass coming up for Buddy.

 

[IdiotBox]

In sheer speculation I had him as my Captain in Dream Team last weekend and fortunately his relatively quiet game and minimal return did not cost me my coaching job *.



* This week

 

[Linda Crescent]

^ Very funny, maybe next week 'IdiotBox'. Watch out.

 

[IdiotBox]

Nup. Not going there again LC. Zero goals for Buddy this week because surely they'll have Murph to nullify him. (Just like Gilham delivered a few good passes to our blokes last weekend! heh he...)

 

[Goodo73]

Likely to finish the season ahead of Nick and Pav and be within striking distance of Milne and Browny in 2014.

 

[WWSD]

Another 6 goals to go from Roughead and he overtakes Michael Tuck who's on 320 career goals and moves into ninth spot on Hawthorn's All time Goal kicking table. A pretty good effort from Roughead it has to be said.

Hypothetical...

(and yes, I know there is 1000+ post thread about this subject elsewhere..)

will this thread continue if Lance plays for another footy club in 2014?

Emphatic no I would think.

"O'Brien's developing place on the All-Time Ladder"

Breust's Developing Place On The All-Time Goalkicking Ladder.

 

[Goodo73]

Breust's Developing Place On The All-Time Goalkicking Ladder.

Career average of 1.81 gls/gm compared to Roughy's 1.88.

 

[RedmanWasHere]

Career average of 1.81 gls/gm compared to Roughy's 1.88.

Breust's got more names to takeover than Rough.

At the start of this thread, Buddy was hovering around the 175 goal mark I think.

 

[Linda Crescent]

Settle down, enjoy the ride. Lance Franklin is wonderful.

 

[WWSD]

+5

545 career goals.

 

[onthemoney]

+5

545 career goals.

And just one behind N Riewoldt yeah? Grouse, I dislike that bloke and his team.

 

[Ron The Bear]

"Press red for Gazza" didn't grab me, but I'd watch "press red for Buddy". Get it done, Foxtel!

 

[IdiotBox]

Kudos to Roughie for delivering the pass to his mate Buddy just before halftime yesterday to get him on the board. Rough could easily have had a ping himself.

 

[Collins-Langford-Ayres]

Wouldn't mind Budd snagging another 5 this week to pass Riewoldt, Daicos, Tredders and Gherig.

Richard 'Dick' Harris

44. 548, 196 Dick Harris (RICH)

Richard Harris played between 1934 and 1944 for Richmond. He represented Victoria at interstate football playing a total of nine games for the state including a carnival in Perth. Harris played mainly as a rover and was highly successful in front of goals, kicking 51 in his debut season. He topped Richmond's goalkicking on three occasions and his career best was 64 goals in 1937. 'Dick' was a premiership player in 1934, he was a member of another Richmond premiership team in 1943 when he kicked seven goals in the club's five point win against Essendon. At the end of the 1944 season Harris left the league and joined VFA club Williamstown helping them to the 1945 premiership. He retired from football in 1953, age 41.

Some titans of the game are in Buddy's headlights. Although, when you're in top 50 territory, everyone's likely to have been a gun.
