Butler is a one dimensional player that is too slow to play on small forwards. He will get turned around too easy by the like of Ballantyne etc.
Goes missing when the game is on the line.

Delist!

Butler is required. There's a reason he was part of the 2006 premiership.
There's a reason why despite all his injury issues and certain one on one issues the coaches
rate him so high and keep utilising him. It's his ability to read play, run the angles and intercept.
Some reckon his soccer background and late commitment to AFL has given him an advantage in this area.
Our defenders are going to need extra assistance in this regard, particularly now. With Waters gone and Ellis
out, he is required.

Hell what do I know?

Nice work.
Stand by my comments. Flashes in and out of tough games and coughed up a goal by a stupid fumble.
Not a player that is part of future premierships as far as I am concerned and didn't do anything this game to change that. I would be playing Nelson and Bennell ahead of him every game.

Obviously you don't know much.

Butler will play every game if available.

AHaha suck it Port! LeCras was massive, just wouldn't allow us to lose that one.

Very impressive.

 

[W.C. Fry]

Time to read all the fun in this thread.

Port are a fantastic side and it is great to see them up and going. We still need an extra classy mid to match them once Wines and co. return. Great win.

When was that?

after hurn won the toss and kicked with the wind

 

[swannies]

Only got to see the second half and was my normal pessimistic self until there was 0.11 seconds to go.

Fantastic game and great fight back (I know it was only 3 goals, but it was Port at home), will keep this one in my recordings.

"...led by MITCH McGovern" ??? When are these Eastern states hacks ever going to do their homework?? Mitch is the younger brother you FLOGS!!!

They're calling him 'Mitts' McGovern.

One of the commentators also clearly called him Mitch McGovern during the broadcast, but it looks like they've fixed it up on the website. By the way, Mitts is a terrible nickname for him, hope to never hear it again on TV.

LeCras brownlow smokie?

Just read this thread from start to finish

If Sinclair ever stumbled across this thread and did the same he'd be joining Mitch Clark in therapy

Go over to the Port board and read the game thread for teh lulz.

Epic meltdown

Now that's the positive attitude we've all come to know and love from Dark Sharks.

Oh, better check, were you talking about the result or that Priddis was named our best?

Think you will find it's because he bet on hawthorn dogs and port this weekend hahahaha... Taking one for the team!

 

[Hap Hapablap]

Absolutely love it. awesome to see one of our coaches having some passion.

I take full credit for this win due to my creation of this thread.

She crashed watching Stargate. I loaded footywire and had my own fun running down the Eagles stat sheet.

There's a distinct possibility that you may be doing it wrong

Listening to the post game pressers on SportFM.

Ken Hinkley is hands down the most interesting coach to listen to.

A pleasure.

 

[swannyfan]

Wow..that was one of the best games i'd seen West Coast play. The transition and link up from defense to midfield to forward was just beeeeeaudiful to watch.

 

[BartBart]

Now both WA teams are on top of the ladder I assume there will be an emergency mid-week meeting between the Victorian teams' Presidents and the AFL to discuss how this can be changed.

 

[WaltzingMatera]

Has made getting up out of bed to go to work on a Monday just that little bit easier.
