Putting another fork into this thread - for all the kids watching at home - I just troll-lol'd BH.

Did you lol?

I know I did.

Phew. I read that one without fainting....

Maybe we just forget what you said re 2011 example.

As dc said ...ok

But what a doozy that was...

Ok fork in, I'm done..

Cameron will be a star..

Who cares if he will be a star as it doesn't effect us.

And the 2011 premiership was won more by A grade players then a few select Stars, in future if you choose to dismiss someones opinion then at least provide some argument as to why rather then beat around the bush with simpleton comments

Are you all there? You know, up stairs?

Firstly you make the clearly wrong, and arguably idiotic statement that Geelong 2011 had no stars.

Then you argue amongst yourself to somehow try and deflect any real argument coming your way.

You then want everyone to forget you even said it, either because a: you realise how stupid it was, or b: you genuinely didn't want to derail the thread.

Finally you finish off with a smart arz comment asking H_T to provide an argument - after numerous times saying you didn't want to rehash that argument.

You sir, are my new favourite.

bugger it, I'm stupid enough to buy in. lets have a crack at this.

Josh Hunt B- grade player, lucky enough enough to play in 3 premierships.

Matthew Scarlett 6 time All Australian. One of the greatest full backs the game has seen.

Tom Lonergan B- courageous fight back to play in a flag, but bottom 6 in anyones estimation

Corey Enright A+ 4 time All Australian. star in anyones estimation

Harry Taylor B+ mature age debutant, hasn't put a put wrong. One of the best contested marks in the game

David Wojcinski B- Runs really fast, not much else to offer.

Joel Selwood A++ Outside of Chris Judd put together the finest first 100 games in memory. One of the 10 best footballers in the game.

Jimmy Bartel A+ Brownlow Medallist, Norm Smith Medallist, 2 x AA. thrives on the big stage. One word - champion

Andrew Mackie B decent footballer, not a star, not a hack.

Actually I've lost interest. I've only got to the centreline, but the points made. But just for clarity, theres another 13 players to go that I didn't get to. Of those 13 players theres 10 All Australian jumpers between.

Like DA, you're now my favourite poster too.

In fact, it would be fair to infer it's exactly the same, ergo, "Yes, that's what I said".

No, not exactly. It's open to interpretation, even if slightly, ergo, you misquoted said twitterer.

Iv actually lost track of whats going on here cause i dont care anymore except my damn hands keep clicking on the threads that keep getting bumped because im so bored at work.

But for the sake of it can you tell me what players were 'stars' for the 2011 season for the Cats. Has nothing to do with this thread of course but what the hell.

Nice, you listed there career achievements.

So how many of these were 'stars' for the 2011 season?

Back to the original point, I would prefer 2 A grade players like Watts and Trengove rather then a star like Cameron.

Your arguing in favor that you would prefer less stars to more A grade players I assume?

I am finding it funny how people are arguing that we need 'stars' and spruking players they think will be stars though none of these people have suggested any logical way to get any to the MFC. They just continue to try to de-rail this thread

resistance is futile.

Unless we want to give up a viney, watts or a frawley then there is no point suggesting this.

Viney and Frawley? No. If they are silly enough to take Jack Watts? Hell yes!

Posted

Some of the comments are priceless.

Can't be bothered looking through - which comments?

Posted

Cameron will be a gun, but fix the bloody midfield. Dawes and Clark are enough company for Hogan to thrive under for the moment. I'd look at adding crumbers to that list before KPFs.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year.
