Watched torrent of game yesterday, not the best, not the worst. At his stage of career i was happy enough. Certainly wouldn't be embarrarssed to say he plays for the mighty pies. I can get frustrated with skill errors but only get embarrased by softness.
Poorly worded heading or deliberate sh!t stirring?

"You've got to earn the right, every year or every week, to be part of this team." - Nathan Buckley
The following quote is from the champion Nathan Buckley & sums it up very well imo. Toovey won't be in this team if he doesn't earn his right in this team.
He was taken as a rookie with us in 2005. He has managed to work his way off the rookie list & into the senior side, along with fellow 2005 former rookie listed player Cox. Not every player who comes off the rookie list is a star, but some are. Toovey might never be the star that other rookie listed players are, like O'Brien or Clarke; but has, like O'Brien & Clarke worked his way into the team.
He works his arse off to earn his place in the team, just like the other 43 players listed at Collingwood. Call him a dud or an embarassment or whatever you will, but he is in our team. He has his spot in the team which is more than any 'Toovey basher' could ever put their name to.

Well spoken mate
Toovey busts his arse and gives his all, the poor bastrad bleeds black adn white and all he gets is a few experst trying to tear shreds off him for a decent game.
I think teher is an odd chance he'll be left out for goldsack but i have no doubt he'll be in the side again

Shame is i was going to mention Toovey in a thread the other day but decided not to because i was sure it would be highjacked by over the top vitriol like this. Is impossible to discuss Tooves in a reasonable manner IMO which is a shame as there is a lot to talk about both positive & negative if done in a constructive way.

Stats are from FinalSiren.com
In 1995 there were many, many less people on the net for socio-economic reasons. The majority of household considered a computer as a luxury item and IP costs were very high relative to income.
Most conversations about players and player performance were face to face with other fans and there was little or no opportunity to anonymously voice any opinion you liked.
Pretty accurate summation regarding development of younger players.
The spotlight is thrown on some of these kids even before they nominate for the draft. The opinions of the "experts" is propagated as gospel and when they do not live up to the "hype" it is somehow their fault.

Next time you should aim for the top....Monty Python funny or Billy Connelly funny.
Now I am wondering if Toovey was John Howard embarrassing or Alexander Downer embarrassing?
