I've always loved him, but last year really confirmed how important he is to a functioning and successful back 6. He is part of that chemistry, that gelling of - as we were told repeatedly in 2018 - an undermanned, undersized, and injury riddled defence which helped take us to within a kick of a flag.
Thank God we retained him.
He missed 13 months of football in his prime development stage and the trolls/critics/goldfish never took that into account.
Has only got better since returning mid 2017 and showing that the glimpses of talent he showed before his injury was not a fluke.

As long as the files named
“Bear”
“Berger Boy”
“Silky Wells”
are never released, I should escape safely any prosecution.
Phew.

Bloke knows how to mark the footy
Which bloke? Oh, Langdon!?
The type of player the media never talks about but the fans love (well most anyways). Kind of like Ben Johnson.

love Langdon, some here wrote him off and some wanted him out but the guy can play just needed to be surrounded by a competitive team, not all players are leaders.... dont think Langdon is a leader type... but he's a heck of a player. He's playing to his potential that he has shown in his first couple of seasons
A key player out back and so happy he's signed long term

Then again he has been placed in the young leadership group at Collingwood the last 2 seasons so internally they see leadership potential

He was always able to do that.Langdon has come a long way. A long way. Hes always been a key interceptor but lacked in a lot of other areas. His spatial awareness has improved beyond my wildest dreams and he's beginning to develop a little bit of midfield flair in traffic. I'm not talking Pendlebury flair or anything, but the boy can move in traffic.
Clutch again today at pivotal times. Big moment player.

Excellent game, again. Great re-signing last year, very happy we didn't lose him

He made a Huge Play late in the Game that Saved a Goal.
To me he is Frustrating. He can do some Brilliant things and Also some Non-Brilliant Things

he has been excellent all season, very good re-signing in the off season. Would have been wasted at the Swans who need to rebuild
Good value at pick 65.

Had a pretty good afternoon, yesterday. Stood up when the heat was on late.
Has been pretty good over the last couple weeks. He’s hardly been kicking the ball with 5,6 and 3 kicks over the last 3 weeks. Wonder if he’s slightly injured?
Was seething at that free that was given to Bagley. Langers had done a great job to body him and Bagley actually had hold of this jumper. It should have been play on. Anyway hope he continues to play well.

He always does in last quarters of close games. I'm stoked that we kept him.
He was superb again yesterday as he has been all year to date. The big improvement this season thus far is he has stopped the dicky half-kick across ground that resulted in a direct turnover and goal.

He's been superb in the second half of games for 18 months. The big difference this year is that he's changed his pre-game routine and no longer indulges in a bucket bong before the first bounce. It used to take a quarter for its effects to wear off.

Thought Langers played a blinder today. A very underrated player, and one of the best marks in the game. We have a couple of reasonable marks... That Howe bloke isn't bad, Langers, Elliot, Moore, Brodes, Checkers, WHE Even Coxy is becoming rather good... We don't just have the best list, the best mids, the best ruck, the best Mark, the best young guys, and the best kids waiting to come through. I'm telling ya, put a lazy 5 on us to win the next 3 flags, should pay alright.
Langdon is quickly becoming one of my favourites. Rate him so highly.
