Left Footers

Brad Green???

I would prefer if a footballer could kick off both feet. Nothing worse than see a one sided player corralled in today's game.

Rhino pretty well sums it up

cannot understand the logic with the left footer romance some people have (example Buddy Franklin)

call me harsh but to me anyone who has no opposite side to their body by hand or foot is NOT COMMITTED to improving for the TEAM

As long as he's not left handed, writing on white boards is hard for a left hander because they rub out what they write, I don't want many MFC players who can't write on whiteboards

Allow me to be the first to call you harsh.

What about M. Bate? he has no right at all IMO.

Is he un comitted to the team?

I'd be disappointed, and surprised, if M. Bate wasn't working his backside off to improve the right side of his body as it would have obvious positive repercussions on the team.

All players have a responsibility to improve parts missing from their game IMO

Absolutely, but I dont think that if the 'wrong side' just isnt there, then they havent put in.

Would Bate be a better footballer with an effective right foot ?

These are not the days where footballers trained on Tuesday and Thurday nights and played the match on Saturdays

Having the ability to dispose of the ball equally with hand or foot on both sides of your body should be every footballers goal

Of course there have been some great players who are noticeably one sided players

To answer your *Is he uncomitted to the team* question i would have thought that was obvious if he has set aside no practice to improve a basic skill of our game

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the
