Byron Pickett scared the hell outta the dogs tonight... i reckon we need him in 08! there was a replay of the hawks in the 80s on fox tonight and byron reminds me of dipper.. so physically aggressive!

agreed he is back, great tackling only gave away 1 free

On fire on his birthday.

I'd love to keep him around next year, but I worry the club sees him as too up and down, on and off the field.

Whoever said we should get rid of him are complete idiots

I have sat back the last few months and laughed out loud at the comments from the wannabe footy experts on this forum

should be kept!! scared the [censored] out of the whole bulldogs outfit. him and davey fit together are lethal!!

Byron for 2008

Absolutely rapt that Byron was able to play such a great game. Yes he does still have a lot to offer - the ball is in his court though isn't it? If he can continue form like he displayed tonight, I would love to see him back again next year - I have said it before, he was my MOST hated player in the AFL before he came to the Dees - he is just such an intimidating presence on the field - you literally see players baulking away when they see him coming.

I am also positive that he would have been playing for the memory of Ernie Dingo's brother who was killed in a car accident this week. We all read about Ernie Dingo supporting Byron in recent times so it is great to see that Byron was able to give him something back.

Well done Byron!!!

well said deesrock!

I want to see Byron play next year as much as anyone.

However, there is still a BIG question mark over his fitness.

One game - one - for the year that matches his potential and the masses are begging Byron to stay. I'm happy with the suitcase being packed and personal items posted to wherever the hell he wants. Fat after preseason, half-arsed through the year and he turns up now...WOW what a professional. What a great example. Let's keep him. How pathetic are we that a one-off effort impresses so much.

Thanks for the memory.

If Sheedy gets the job the Byronator will not only be safe, he will be inspired!

I agree that one game is not enough - Byron still has a lot to proove and he owes his team and his supporters plenty. I do think, however, that it is a credit to him that he is still prepared to give it a go - and so he bloody should given the $$$ he gets. There is no doubt that the Byron that can come out to play would still have a lot to offer our team next year. We just have to hope he can serve it up again next week and beyong. Maybe he can hang one on Joffa over the fence (accidentally on purpose) when he is celebrating a goal.

He was down on form and injured.. maybe he needs a better motivator than the last coach.. true his year has been bad, but don't you remember last year?? against so many teams, he WAS the difference - he is such an imposing presence on the field that he deserves leeway for being undiciplined or whatever... up and down is better than not having him at all!

Yeah, he is awesome as he has been proving all year.

Sorry to say I am with Tim on this one......

Played a great game tonight? Well thats fantastic but it is about bloody time.

Yes he has been down on form throughout this season that is obvious, but part of that is due to his total lack of commitment in regards to his fitness. But there also seem to be no drive (or at least there wasn't) to play and if that isn't there then he is just wasting space on the list. If he truly wants to play then he will show us but I am not going to be sold on a single performance at the end of a wasted season, where is has definitely let a hell of a lot of people down.

he will

Thats Byron's role if they do keep him, he needs to stay in the forward line and not in the midfield rotation

Performances like last night do not exonerate players nor undermine the criticism of many "star' players this year. They merely put in bold the serious questions about many players contribution throughout the year.

I'm with you timD all the way. I'd carry his bags out.

I cant believe the chortling white knights of mediocrity champion one game out of a whole season then bleat like cut sheep why we are so inconsistent and go missing so often.

Bulldogs had about as much heart for hard work as Paris Hilton for jail. They were inept. We beat little last night.

What a joke.

HAHAHAHA..........now that is comedy!!!!!!!

At least our supporters are as inconsistent as our team!

the funniest was when they handpassed a behind from 15 metres out ,how bad can you get and Mcmahon giving us free kicks like its our birthday:P

Sheedy and Byron for 2008.

Nuf said.

Id like to see Byron stay as long as he doesn't go walkabout

We are too easily pleased.

I saw him standing on the wing, unable to chase, short of breath. NOT GOOD ENOUGH!

If he can't run up and down the ground, he shouldn't be playing AFL footy. His fitness is a joke, even if his skills and aggression are up to scratch.
