That is why he was picked in the dream team, let's hope he lights up the sky.

Peon Leon is just a poor man's Mathew Stokes. Unlike Leon though, Stokesy can get a touch on grand final day, even after getting a knee injury.

 

[Stereophonic]

yes but why cant he do it when his team is not in front?

 

[BUCKS THANKS]

didnt realise they picked players by their Grand Final apperances.
Leon has come a long way and playing consistent football
Rewarded well

 

[PumpyChowdown]

Leon - average at best.

Up there with Eddie Betts, though Eddie has played far better than Davis this year. Milne is better than Davis.

Leon- most overrated chode ever

Feeling a need to justify his selection with a one off moment is a dead giveaway to how u feel about it.

Correct weight.

Picked for highlight reel.

Leon Davis still goes missing when the pressure is on, but then again so does Didak and Thomas.

When the heat was on last weekend against the Hawks.......... you guessed it they all went missing.

Imo Davis is not worthy of a game tonight.

This season so far Leon has played better than these 2.

BTW Nice highlights reel favourites - All the best to Leon tonight he deserves his spot

Why do you have to be a "Leon Davis hater" just because you don't think he should be playing? There's a lot of players I like who I wouldn't pick.

 

[Didaics]

yes but why cant he do it when his team is not in front?

Re watch the video and keep an eye on the scores that are in the corner at each highlight.

Many are with the pies 2 or 3 goals down in the third.

 

[The_Flying_Egg]

Akermanis has more goals and possesions than Davis, is a better user of the ball than Davis and has a bigger impact on gamesa than Davis.

Just quietly you could probably get a pretty decent highlight reel from him as well

Davis' inclusion robs the game of credibility

 

[SriLankanCat]

Leon Davis can do some magical things

But he is a typcial small forward..they tend not to dominate and get big numbers, theyh are opportunists who take the few chances they have

how many small forwards do u see dominate on a gamely basis

 

[rickydysonforbl]

unbelievable that aker isn't playing. aker is 10 times the player leon will ever be.

.

Didnt watch the finals last year?

 

[MF]

As far as the small super quick forwards go Davis has been just about the best this year. Probably lucky to be playing tonight but if he plays well then he has justified his selection.

Good luck to him.

Well, I reckon you're an absolute spud if you DON'T get touches in a 119 pt victory.

exactly.

 

[The Pies Are In Front]

Gee your comparing a player who cant crack into the bombers midfield to a guy who is a star in your eyes.

Well done.

 

[cookieDogs]

well he does go for collingwood

 

[Ron]

Aker is a better player no doubt, but lets face it, he is a blight on our game and has no right playing in a match which celebrates our great game.

Didak wasn't available for other reasons.

Davis was the right choice given the above reasons, has had a very good last two years, and hopefully he can do a couple of nice things tonight so the crowd can have some value for money.

 

[Gyroscope_182]

Leon overrated????

He is fastly becoming the most underrated player in the game. People are still referring to his Grand Final appearances as a 21 year old, rather than what he is doing now, in his prime.

People say he is average at best...at best he is a very good quality footballer...and like all small forwards, consistency can be a problem. The fact in the last 18 months his consistency has been incredibly good, and he has only got better.

Anyway, no-one hates Davis, just that he plays for Collingwood. If he played for any other side, this would not be a topic.
