Opinion Joe Daniher - Will he be remembered more as a Bomber or a Lion?

[HirdsTheWord]

Thought he was at the club in 2012 just not on the list and not yet 18

Nope.

Wasn't drafted until 2013

 

[yeahmate]

yeah but he trained at the club throughout 2012 prior to being drafted

yeah, he was training with us as he was linked via father son, but he wasn't in any of the sports programs

 

[kreuze_missile]

He's one of the all-time Essendon family outcast turncoats.

Seems like a more relevant question now that there are rumours of Joe retiring tomorrow. Interestingly, virtually everyone thinks he's more a Lion, despite playing more games and spending more years with Essendon.

Recency bias or is success just more memorable than total time?

Fakest of fake news, no way he's retiring

He's played his best footy at the Lions and in bigger games

 

[ItsAllAboutMe]

He is a symbol of Essendon and their failings the last decade… Was gifted gold plated to Bombers from a family of Essendon royalty but the club was such a basket case he had to leave, left and played the best footy if his career, whilst the Bombers are still stuck in the mud,

 

[Jugada]

Just seems like so much longer since he was a Bomber because of those 3 seasons where he barely got on the park. His Bombers 2017 season was probably his best season too

 

[WillHayward]

Interesting but Lion for sure due to finals wins and appearances.

I doubt many neutrals were watching the Bombers when Daniher played for them..zero interest in that rabble outside of hardcore bombers fans .

Joe has had many big games in finals during prime time TV with big audiences.

No debate.

 

[Toump Ass]

Was the only bomber worth watching for a long time so I still remember him as such.

 

[greatwhiteshark]

Will he be remembered?

 

[hoddo22]

A story I heard would see essendon disbanded, makes the systematic breaches seem even worse

If it's to do with a minor receiving unrecorded injections, then I've heard the same thing.

Daniher definitely Lion rermembered

The only thing for certain is he will not be making some wildly public announcement after the game. I can’t see anything less Joe than willingly putting the limelight on himself (outside of the 4 quarters of footy).

Much more likely to be announced on Monday if he does.

joe is going to grab the microphone off the presenter postgame to do one of these

I heard the family was very pissy about it and also the idea that it may have contributed in some way to his groin issues.
Probably missed 50 games.
* if it did contribute to him not being able to stay healthy, then Essendon probably disadvantaged one of the most talented natural FF’s of the modern era.

Get excited: Watch the best highlights of Joe Daniher

Enjoy the standout moments from the forward's career so far

Sure, that feels like a different era for me though.

Or it could just be cause he’s carrying a very long little Daniher. I totally get it.

He was simply fantastic yesterday. Will be remembered as a Brisbane lions player. Smart enough to leave Essendon and make something of his career
