Player #50 - Scott Pendlebury

Well let me remind you he is (apparently) Collingwood's captain and when it comes to hide and seek he makes Anne Frank look like an amateur.

That’s just bullshit.

He went into bat for Toby Greene …







… oh, wait 😳

How much does off-field stuff improve someone's ranking? Jaidyn Stephenson breaking his hip from a BMX and booze incident should propel him a fair way.

Do you think Tex’s 48 goal season has any chance of making him immune?

Me neither.

Surely Tex is line for a lifetime achievement award if he hasn’t got one already.

And Jaidyn has added to the body of work for his own lifetime achievement award.

Cripps vs Stephenson for the #1 spot you would think.

Walker top 10 as well as at least a couple of tigers.

Then 10 random bulldogs players I'll have to google to see who they are smattered throughout the top 50.

Some locks to start out your googling - Zaine Cordy, Jason Johannisen, and Mitch Hannan.

Player #49 - Tim O'Brien

Tim O'Brien has been a mainstay of Hawthorn's demise and makes another appearance in the Bottom 50.

He is capable of the occasion screamer which is sadly overshadowed by his more than occasional howler. At 193cm he plays kid of tall(ish) and mostly forward(ish) but has spent time in defence this year as Hawthorn's former coach tried to find a spot for him.
*** Note to Bevo, please don't read the next sentence ***
He has even spent a little bit of time in the ruck this year, managing a career high 5 hit-outs when Hawthorn lost to wooden spooners North Melbourne.
*** God damn it Bevo***

Watching him play, you get the sense he's so damn close to being an AFL footballer but is just a little bit frustratingly off. He's the forth date 2:30 duration handjob that stops suddenly with an explanation of "you've had enough" when we all know damn well that there is a very specific way to tell when we have, in fact, had enough. He has a former teammate (and about 1,922 women in Sydney and Melbourne) who could elaborate for those who really need further explanation.

In a Nostradamus-like prediction last year, I wrote of Tim:
Tim is a restricted free agent at the end of 2021, so I assume whoever is coaching the Hawks by then will have a decision on their hands. Do they let him walk, or do they iron out the wrinkles in his game? Looking at their list the Hawks could definitely do with less wrinkles.

As it stands Tim is without a deal for next year so fans of all 18 clubs are reading this right now and quietly shitting themselves. There is a reasonable chance he ends up at the bulldogs and wins mark of the year for this (admittedly) fine effort, just to make me look foolish:


Tim, good luck next year under whichever coach takes you on. Thanks again for contributing to the Bottom 50 for 2021.
 
He actually improved this year and played probably 5 decent games this season. Give him another 5-10 years (hopefully at another club) and he might be able to play 10 good games a season

I'm offended on behalf of Jacob Koschitzke here

Probably the most identifiable player on the list honestly, just check our game day threads when he fluffs it up.
 
From the Dees Sam Weideman surely gets a run. Preseason HYPE into losing his spot to smaller players despite fitting the structure perfectly.

course we do, he's the guy who surprises us every time he marks the ball.

If the ball was in his hands you would be correct (with 1 notable exception). With the ball in reach but unable to hold on to it that is extremely identifiable for a Hawthorn supporter

Haha...he wears the famous number 23, has bright red hair and drops mark of the year every week. Hawthorn supporters would recognise O'Brien before Tom Mitchell honestly.
 
Jake Kolodjashnij, Luke Dahlhaus & Shaun Higgins should be sure things.

The former is so bad I would give up a first round draft pick (if we have one?) just for someone else to take him.
 
Surely Ned Guy is a chance to make it this season....

I mean, last year was outstanding work - but to give up Pick 2 to GWS - when you finish 17th and they are still in the finals race - that's Neds Level list management right there....

St Kilda - another sort of take your pick. Overpaid and overrated? Brad Hill, Dan Hannebery, cmon down. Dan Butler was sh*t after a breakout year in 2020, as was Jack Lonie when the Saints couldn't find anyone else to play.
Click to expand...
Hill, Hanners, McKernan, Hunter, Billings, Lonie, Ross hell Jarryd Roughead is also in with a chance for breaking a players leg in preseason.
