Broomhead? You're an idiot!
The infatuation on this forum for players like Broomhead and Sharenberg is ridiculous. He had a crap game last week, he has maybe played 1 or 2 AFL standard games while he has been at the club. So overrated its borderline insanity. You realise he would probably fetch a 4th rounder at best from another club? He seems to only be rated by Collingwood fans and no one else.

Ben Crocker comes out in the 2's, kicks 3, takes some great marks, has a quality game, better than Broomhead has ever played at even VFL level, yet we have morons who for some reason think a bloke who played like trash last weekend deserves a spot over him.

The same people who call for Buck's head when he picks Blair every week are the same ones calling people idiots who suggest a bloke like Broomhead didnt earn his spot.

People seem to forget he has been on our list for FOUR years and has done nothing.

No, not even close...

Thought Broomhead did a few good things, but regarding the last part, Broomhead has absolutely tore the VFL a new one on a few occasions. I recall one game I went to in 2015 when he kicked 3 and had 40+ touches.

Untrue. Adelaide fans were very keen on aquiring him last year before he re-signed. He wouldn't command much currency because of his injury history, but anyone who knows footy can see his talent. All he needs is a consistent run at it, like he did before his shoulder injury.

Once again, garbage. Broomhead has had multiple 30+ possession, BOG games in the VFL. If you watched any VFL you'd know he is a class above at the level. Conversely, people who actually watched the game last week reported that while Crocker had a good game, he was still very scratchy and looked like he needed more time to get some touch back. Broomhead on the other hand, was best on ground in his VFL game and looked a class above from every report.

People seem to forget he has been on our list for FIVE years and has done nothing.
Much of that is the fault of the club rather than Broomheads.

Give this guy an award please.

Sharenberg was a pick 50 no one would expect him to be on the list next year.

You would be correct; while crocker looked good, there was that sharpness that is still a little bit away a week or two more in the VFL should have him primed to make a serious case for senior selection.

Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water.............:rolleyes:
 
Lets see if we can pick which one of these two stat comparisons is the new whipping boy of Collingwood, James Aish, and the weekly lock that is Tim Broomhead. To help you out i threw in the player ages:

Player A (23 years old):

  • 2017: Disposals - 12.0, Marks - 1.0, Tackles - 2.0
  • 2016: Disposals - 8.0, Marks - 1.5, Tackles - 1.5
  • 2015: Disposals - 14.6, Marks - 1.4, Tackles - 3.6
  • 2014: Disposals - 12.9, Marks - 2.6, Tackles - 2.4
Player B (21 years old):
  • 2017: Disposals - 16.0, Marks - 2.0, Tackles - 5.0
  • 2016: Disposals - 15.8, Marks - 2.8, Tackles - 2.8
  • 2015: Disposals - 14.3, Marks - 2.2, Tackles - 2.6
  • 2014: Disposals - 17.6, Marks - 4.5, Tackles - 3.7
If you remove the names, which bloke would you be investing games into for future returns?
 
Not to mention Hannebery and Parker are playing about as well as Crisp is at the moment.
Even Kennedy's not looking at his best.

Our midfield shits all over there's at the moment.
Sadly we have a habit of playing teams into form. Hopefully not tomorrow night...
 
If we don't win by at least 3-4 goals tomorrow lock us in for a bottom four finish because that's the weakest Sydney team I've seen since Eade departed.

Even David King picked us! :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:

Stats say otherwise. I don't actually rate Aish, i just think people rate Broomhead way to high for a bloke who has had less return than the apparently inferior James Aish.
