Woey on The Front Bar

Featured Replies

 

Hated seeing him in that pies jumper. 

We got there 1st round pick for woey, tell me who we got with that?

Interesting he and Neale didn't bury the hatchet until 2017. 

But sounds like all is good with him & the club now & loves watching Taj play

 

Coached Aquinas College to winning the PSA this season, dealt with the tragedy of losing one of their players in a tragic car accident. 
 

Loved him as a player, ultra professional who got the best out of himself

I really thought he had a chance as he had a great year running off half back.
I don't think the opposition coaches rated him and let him run free.
That changed after his Brownlow and he struggled with the attention IMO.
Was very professional back then to the extent of diet and weighing his food portions etc which not many seemed to be doing.

Will always remember this running rippa.

The decision to trade Shane took us all by surprise ( shock/horror) one of my daughters actually bought a Pies membership in ‘03 and went to a lot of their games. Sad time.!!

For some obscure reason, Woey was prevented from playing his on ball role after the Brownlow and was forced to play a fixed back pocket or hbf in 2001. No wonder he lost form. By the end of 2002, he had been wasted by MFC.

He, AMac and Powell formed a strong front of ball trio of left footers who could run and kick goals. Still can't understand how the coaching team allowed this to be wasted.

The lads I used to stand with at the G gave him the Brownlow moniker half way through the season. He had a great year.

When Woey was traded to Collingwood I was still in high school. My best friend at the time was also a mad Melbourne supporter and Woey was her favourite player.

When he was traded, she no joke took a week off school because she was so distraught. She was hysterical. 

He used to be my neighbour, and she went to his house and left him a note to say how upset she was he was leaving. It was giving stalker energy. 

I have lost touch with her many moons ago, but whenever I see Taj running around I think of her and wonder if she's smiling watching another Woewodin run around in red and blue.

One of my favourite goals. That and Farmer's one out at Waverley.

Possibly from a prison cell.

I was so [censored] off I didn't buy a membership the next year.  The only year I didn't for thirty or more. Certainly didn't stalk him though.

Same here! Only year in 40 or so that I haven't been a member. At the time someone from the membership dept rang to see why I hadn't renewed. I was narky and said I was going to barrack for Collingwood from now on. She just said "Oh..okay"!

No offence Jaded but I didn’t realise you were that young. When I left high school Viney and Grinter were my favourite players and the great Robbie Flower had just retired after playing his final game against Hawthorn in the famous preliminary final

Not sure if that is a compliment or not 😂

One of the more heartbreaking times seeing Woey traded to Collingwood. 

Right up there with the worst for me, Jackson didn't come close. But Trac to Collingwood would be 20 times more pain than Woey.

I am certain that would never happen.

Not in a million years.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.
