Toast Dennis Armfield

[gbatman]

probably had him just outside our best 22 and now he is well and truely in it. Very much improved player.

 

[dumb]

i was always a fan but was worried after he got shifted out of back pocket because it looked like he had a spot sewn up there and might find it hard to find a slot in the midfield.
definitely improved disposal, still pacy.

 

[Team Mo']

Inspirational effort to get up and put in a defensive effort in the first quarter after what looked like a very serious knee injury.

 

[ESKIE]

I love the way he plays, always been a fan, players like army are so important to us winning a flag, his super efforts and guts.

I loved it the last 1/4 he was giving it to daisy, roughing him up and giving him a mouthful..

Go Army!!

 

[juzz88]

My Dad loves Army more than Murphy!!!!!!

Just goes to show how much he means to Carlton fans.

Pulled his sock off after the game. Had a bone sticking through his leg that he'd treated with chewing gum, an icy-pole stick and a length of barbed wire. Respect.

 

[GoBlues!]

I think were starting to develop a core of real hard nuts in Armfield, Robinson and Tuohy which adds a toughness to the team.

Army and Robbo laid 7 tackles each last night, which was a quarter of the total tackles for the team.

Go Army & Co.

 

[NAUGHT5]

Can't wait to see Dennis Armfield at the end of this year. Think he has a huge year of improvement ahead.

 

[Balony_pony16]

most improved player so far...super impressed

 

[The Coach]

I figure when The General has served his RED time he will be straight on this thread to apologize to Army

 

[blue gunslinger]

don't hold your breath
is that 2 reds in a week? Naughty boy!

 

[Lance]

When he went down holding his knee I feared the worst. Went off and then later was back on, and did some nice things, so his "injury" can't be too bad. Anyone know whether he has been cleared of serious injury?

He was robbed of a mark/shot on goal in the 3rd term.

Collingwood player kicked the ball which then bounced off armfield's head, it carried 20m and armfield marked the ball only for it to be called "touched, play on"

Collingwood got a goal out of it as well

 

[PP34]

Loved the bump he gave as he was hobbling off.

Guts.

Can someone point out how Armfield was part of the Judd Trade? I know we gave up Kennedy and Pick 2, did we give up anything else? And i know we got Judd but did we get anything else? Thanks Guys..

With Judd came pick 46 which was used to acquire Army.

For a guy that doesn't do much reading, he is surely one impressive and improved footballer.

Carlton got Judd and Pick 46 (Armfield)
West Coast got Kennedy, Pick 3 (Masten) and Pick 20 (Notte)

Great performance by Army on friday night and I watched the game again last night and to see him still sprinting to contests just before the final siren went shows how much guts and determination this guy has.
