On the AFL website, the AFl have chosen Brad Miller as one of the current footballers that could be Bond. WHat do you think?

With the release of Casino Royale, which of these AFL players do you think could play James Bond?

James Clement

Trent Croad

Luke Darcy

Aaron Hamill

Chris Judd

Brad Miller

    Only Darce. I'm a huge 007 fan, and none of those really rank. Bond has to be tall, have blue eyes, heaps of chest hair, look severe and frighteneing, have a dry sense of humour, and appear to be classy, while rugged.

    Clement, Hamill and Judd are nowhere near good-looking enough. Croad and Miller are too pretty in the teeny bopper sense.

    I can't speak for Darcy's chest hair or eye colour, but he fills the other items well. A hysterically dry sense of humour, tall, severe looking (when he wants to be). He fits the bill the best probably.

    Interestingly the new Bond fails one or two of these categories. He's shortish, looks like a boxer, not an aristocrat, and has no chest hair. That aside, I thought he did a ripping job in the movie. So much for rules.

    There's probably a couple of others that'd go alright too, but I can't think of them right now.

    well the pre requisite of putting more than 5 words together in anything other than a monotone may render this question moot !!

    It has to be Judd.

    I'm pretty sure that he is a robot planted on this earth to bring peace and good football skills to all.

    If anyone could pick up 30 possessions while simultaneously saving the world from Terrorism, it has to be him :P

    Sandilands as Jaws.

    Eddie McGuire as Goldfinger.

    Lou Richards as "Q."

    Bev O'Connor as "M" (Judi Dench).

    Samantha Jones (Fox footy newsreader?) as Moneypenny.

    Now THAT'S a cast. Move over House of Bulger.

    Well sometimes accidentally hitting the wrong button brings interesting results. Found this thread by accident but given the latest naming of a the new Bond lead, thought it was quite appropriate to bump. 

    My thought is Trent Rivers would make an excellent 007.

    Everyone else's thoughts to add to this classic thread?

    Petracca. He has those suave looks, but he'd probably bust through the walls of the Russians' secret lair rather than finesse his way in.

    As soon as I saw the thread title I immediately thought Dangerfield (sorry) but he's probably too woke for the role. Need a little chauvinism to play bond.

    Checking in from Portugal near Guincho, where some of Her Majesty's Secret Service was filmed with Aussie George Lazenby in the lead role. I also once sold a CD to Sean Connery. Conclusion: no Australian should ever play Bond.

    Please don't mention the M word in any post. I just get very, VERY angry 😠 

     

    P.S.  The 2006 quote was a reminder for me not to swear at seeing it's name 😉

    Has my name been mentioned yet?

     

     

    Mason Cox for the big dumb henchman, swift to anger. Maynard in the opening sequence as a bad guy who gets his comeuppance. Eddie McGuire in a Bond parody movie as the evil mastermind.

    I don't care as long as they are Gay or Trans.

    Preferably dark skinned.

    For too long British secret service agents have been portrayed as white males from Britain.

    This must change.

    Could only be one person. Gawn.....

    Max Gawn.

     

    Nah. Gawn would have his own, much more successful, movie series. So would Brayshaw, actually. Hmm... Gus and Gawny the epic adventure series really could work.

    I think Shaun Burgoyne would be an standout candidate for an 'Aussie' branded Bond. Has that smooth presentation, tall lean build, a clearly Aussie (not merely Australian) accent, gives a little edge of Crocodile Bondee. He does like expensive watches, too.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

    • FEATURE: 1925

      A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
