OMG - that's him alright

 

[60 Yards Out]

That AFL article… the ranking of Goodes ahead of Skilton was the one that stood out for me — and the mixing of off-field achievement in with the on-field.

 

[JLC]

All I noticed was that Stephen Silvagni was named in the article but other great backs like Jack Regan (Should have been in the team of the century), David Dench, Geoff Southby, Matthew Scarlett, Alex Rance. etc. were not.

It's like the media can't remember any other KPD other than SOS?

Yeah SOS was heavily reliant on holding his opponents - hence the long sleeves that helped make it less obvious.

People talk about Plugget struggling in this era. Under these rules Silvagni would be exposed for his illegal tactics.

Don't rate him that highly at all.

Imagine flying in for a game on a later flight

Jeez, they are all terrible games.

I'm glad I'm going to the local footy tomorrow.

dermie’s response when sos was named was something along the lines of “I’m going to tell my grandkids that I played on the full back of the century and kicked his arse on multiple occasions “.

Saw Ralphy earlier this year at my local Dan’s on a Monday evening buying a cheap bottle of scotch and nothing else. That’s buying for therapeutic reasons.

if Plugger played in this era and got Frees like Currnow he would kick between 180-200 goals. I never thought Sos was the best fullbacks ever you had the likes of dench etc

SOS FFS used exactly the same tactics as Gayfer, and Gayfer was eventually umpired out of the game. SOS is the most overrated player of the last 50 years.

Cmon mate, SOS was a champ. God love Gayf, but that’s a ridiculous comparison. After he retired from afl, Gayf trained at Old Xavs whilst playing for Tatura. His skills looked terrible compared to A Grade ammo players. Which is a tribute to what he made of his career.

Damn you..

Bookies have it virtually as a two horse race:
Cripps $2.75
Daicos $3.00
Neale $6.00
The Bont $10.00

Here’s hoping Ross Lyon does the right thing and sets a hard tag on Cripps tomorrow.

Is anyone watching First Crack on Fox Footy tonight? I swear, Kingy seems to be distracted by his HP laptop. What on earth is he watching?

I thought Melbourne took concussion very seriously after the outrage of Brayshaw incident?

Apparently their focus has shifted to lacerated spleens

You can only assume they’re asking for more than 3?
