Hnmm 12th in the Margarey Medal? not bad, not bad!

12th in one of the most overrated competitions in the land. Wish him well, but me thinks he might be your secret love child picket.

[Biffen 12,940]

Top dozen in the sanfl?

Lets see.

Jamar,Trengove,Tapscott,Toumpas,Terlich,

To name a few from the Southern state that have missed this honour due to our Adelaide centric recruiting.

The Stretch kid better be good.

Even still,Viney is forgiven due to his freakish talent in fathering Todd.

As you have said in the Jones AA thread...... REALITY CHECK!!!

[What 18,810]

one of the biggest spuds ive ever seen at the mFC

[nutbean 8,838]

I hope we are NOT one of the clubs interested, However would love him to go somewhere else and play good footy, would put egg on a few faces around here!

This is what makes Demonland such a wonderful place.

You want Juice to succeed - but not at the MFC - so you can stick it up posters ( and probably point out that the club made ANOTHER mistake).

How about suggesting we are one of the clubs interested and hope he makes a go of it at the MFC - wouldn't that make more sense ?

[Spirit of 26 261]

There's some kid called Fevola kicking a bag in the country at the minute.....he might be available.

[chook fowler 19,446]

Yeah let's bring back Isaac, Stef, Jurrah, Pettard, Scully, Beamer. All is forgiven and you guys will lead to a flag.

[Maggot 1977 263]

Cant believe this thread continues ... the bloke was a DUD at our club - move on people nothing to see .

[Leoncelli_36 2,264]

What is Mathew Bate up to?

[Maggot 1977 263]

I couldn't give fat rats clacker about Bate , Juice , Jarrah - If there not on our list or are a viable chance of playing AFL next year they may as well be on the moon.

Reality check people - we brought in 3 blokes who either couldn't gat a game or were being overlooked at other clubs who like us were not playing finals and they all took home trophy's last night. To me shows just how shallow the quality of player is on our list and that some in no way should still be on the list.

This will take 3 draft periods of moving on 8-10 players a year IMO

[Grint 30]

Dad played a round of golf with one of Newtons teachers once while he was on our list. He was described as a guy who could do anything he wanted... Amazing athletic ability with the brain of a surgeon - but lazy. Could be anything but will be nothing because he is too lazy to work for it. I reckon the only reason he stayed on the list so long was because people at the club saw this and hoped one day it would click but it just didn't. Waste of a human by the sounds of it.

Ouch. As a fellow chronic underachiever, I take issue with this. Not everyone needs to be a brownlow-winning brain surgeon/rocket scientist.

Probably right. The first was last year.

NORWOOD into the Grand Final "Juice" 2 goals tonight!

Missing the last 2 Grand Finals through injury, a bit of Luck won't go astray! Go Norwood (SA Version of MFC) ! GF in two weeks!

[Tough Kent 2,137]

I love all the posters describing Juice as a spud and a dud. Feel free to post your football resumes...

Toughen up ya kent.

I think Juice would have a thicker skin than to care what anyone on a forum thinks.

Or would you prefer we all be touchy feely and diplomatic? What a wonderful forum that would be.

I'm just not sure how anyone who hasn't played at the level can describe him as a dud. He may not not be up to AFL standard but he has still got the majority of us on here well and truly covered.

[Biffen 12,940]

Career Stats of note.

Huge hanger followed by shot for goal going out of bounds.

Juice 1

*not in AFL.

[spirit of norm smith 16,283]

juice ?? ... NO No NO No NEVER

Soft, goes to ground too easily, doesn't chase. No way ever he is back at mfc.

I understand your argument however it's a forum and people tend to exaggerate.

He can still be called a dud, we'd just be bigger duds.

Um if you are going to quote facts then you need to get it right!!

Huge hanger followed by 50 metre goal! Just to cap it of.

Also, if you go onto the AFL stats page and actually check his career stats , they measure up surprisingly well for a bloke who is and has been exceptionally maligned on this forum, eg Dud, Spud etc! But don't take my word for it, check the stats out for yourselves. Then if not satisfied well as I have said many times on this forum everyone is entitled to their post!

All I'm saying is the bloke went to S.A after his shot with us, has been cruelled by injury missing the last two Norwood flags, surely not any of you out there would begrudge him a well deserved tilt at Premiership Glory?

Go Norwood and Good luck "Juice"
