Universal Love Player 'X' I Was Wrrr, Wrrr......Not Right!

[Arr0w]

I thought Polson and Ramsay would make it

 

[Tony Lynn 15]

Luke Mitchell and Matthew Watson.
Was never optimistic again after that.

Cringle thoughts?

 

[Tony Lynn 15]

I can't really recall being critical of many players as far as their future prospects went. I tend to be supportive until they are delisted.

I have to say that I was dead set against Callum Moore from the outset (and felt bad about it), but I didn't get that one wrong. Never warmed to Andrew Collins either. Josh Bootsma was a draft selection I wasn't happy with. Wasn't enamoured with Robbie Warnock at any stage. And Finbar O'Dwyer ... nope, wasn't for me.

I don't think I've made a call that a player won't make it. I was a little underwhelmed by Adam Cerra in his draft year, compared to others. I reckon I've had my thinking corrected already.

Oh, and I didn't know anything about Cripps or even want him when we first got him. Some youtube highlights made me feel a little hopeful.

Imagine when you really start to critique them!

Oh yeah, I didn't like Matthew Watson for some reason.

The big head was a bit off-putting!

His head was nowhere near as big as The Old Dark Navy's

Could have also been him being Steven Alessio's nephew.

In the first page of our captains player thread, on the night we drafted him, I was expressing my disappointment over passing on Cam McCarthy.

Sorry Crippa.

 

[Magruder]

I thought a series of slow, ball-magnet mids would make it, even as the game moved to athletes first.

Adam bentick being the main one but including but not limited to Brad Walsh also

I was bullish on Adam Bentick and Nick Graham...

God help me.

Takes guts to admit that.

 

[Kreuuuzeurns]

Takes guts to admit that.

We did need a key forward at the time, to be fair.

I was wrong to initially think Lyon was the right man.

Watching him and Voss on FC last night... what was I thinking?

Peter McKenna ...am I doing it right? .....

Peter McKenna ...am I doing it right? .....

You’re not doing it wrong
I like the joke
But players current
Come on man
Hahah

I still think one of the best apologies along these lines was Adam Spencer and Wil Anderson singing “I’m sorry Matt Hayden” along with the music for Outkast’s Miss Jackson. It came during Matthew Hayden’s breakout tour of India, after a series of performances over several years which had been underwhelming.

On a non football related matter - I did once pronounce that the (very early) internet was c b. Radio for nerds.

May have just been a bit off there.

[forever blue 1]

Wow.. was I wrong.

 

[Revenant1965]

LoB...

He’s not wrong.

I think we all thought we had our KPP stocks sorted for the next decade.

And not one made it.

Broke my heart.

 

[Bletch]

LoB...

Yeah, same... starting to come around on him.

 

[ItsAllAboutMe]

Pitto… thought he was no better than most ruckmen I had seen running around in the EDFL… slowly changing my opinion.

Very good tonight, though tired late.
