Jon Anderson's SOO team

Featured Replies

Posted

Jon Anderson put 3 SOO teams in the HUN today for Vic, SA, WA

Victorian team:

B: wirrapanda, scarlett, gilbee

HB: hodge, goodes, heath shaw

C: dal santo, bartel, lappin (played very few games this season)

HF: o'keefe, brown, brad johnson

F: GAJ, fevola, hall

R: fraser, judd, brent harvey

I: lucas, luke power, RYAN MURPHY, rob harvey

Ryan Murphy has played 1 game for the season for no impact, yet a guy like Cameron Bruce cant get into the team. Ridiculous if you ask me.

I know we're 0-7 but this sort of [censored] just riles me. we can be 7-0 and not respected.

FWIW there are no dees in any team and you could argue that case quite well but if muppets like murphy and farmer (yeah that's right the guy who is too busy assaulting people and probably wont play more than 8 games this season and hasn't played yet is in the WA team) are getting games i just wonder.

 

MURPHY?!??!?! WHHAAAATTT?

for those who might wish to argue, even freo fans that might be crusing past, he's had 4 possessions in 2007!!

 

im not gonna slag this off. its obviously not worth anyone paying attention too.


Possible misprint. Probably meant to be Robert Murphy.

You'd have to assume he meant Robert Murphy.

Pathetic journalism regardless.

I know. I hate being a dees supporter and never having our team get anywhere NEAR the recognition it deserves. In the Hun votes for every match(1-5), if we win, we get about 3 players in there, and rarely get the BOG. If we go ok, but lose by a small margin we get NO-ONE in the top 5, and if we THRASH the other team, having the top 10 players on the ground, they STILL find room for an opposition player.... In fact, we have to win by over 100 points to be assured of all the votes from 5-1.

But in this case, classy, I don't think we really can complain. Apart from that side being generally ridiculous, we don't have a SOO player in the current MFC side, going on our first 7 rounds.

Usually I botch and moan, but in this case, I'd rather we find a few victories before spruiking the club. Not even Bruce. who's probably up there in our B&F is ANYWHERE NEAR selection in a state side...

But in any case, Kudos for fighting the good fight.

Just regarding Dees coverage in the media, I thought we got a fair bit of coverage last year actually. I remember pieces on guys like Holland and Carroll as well as our bigger names.

DD,

We had three in the Herald Sun best after the loss to the bulldogs.

Davey was awarded 5 votes, I think Trapper 4 and White 2. Not bad considering we lost.


the tall freo hack

That is an awesome and hilarious piece of journalism. I will be quitting my job first thing Monday morning and heading off to the Herald-Sun asking for a job in a newly-vacated sports writer's position.

Should have mentioned that was the FIRST time I remember seeing us get some luck in that regard. And I think while Aaron deserved his go, they were very generous.

Interestingly, he was given 5 votes by BOTH coaches in the footy classified coaches votes in player of the year, along with Colin and one other I think.


sorry what does SOO stand for?

State of Origin, I would imagine :)

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
