Hickey's game, lol.

If Longer had those stats many would be calling for a 10 year contract extension.

Good effort from Nathan Wright: a whopping 16 tackles and number one ranked player for Sandy. He probably realises he is on death row, and is having a dead-set crack at getting one last call up to the seniors to prove himself.

Spot on. The only one that could hold his head high. prob gets delisted at yr end but he won't die wondering.
As for Hickey. Think we saw why he got dropped with his quite pathetic pleas to the umps to speed up the game, cause he was cold and wet.
So he could get home and have a look at himself in the mirror. Tom took one look and promptly s**t himself, as he was giving himself....
The CRAZY eye.

Weird that it was Hickey and Gilbert who got most of the ball for Sandringham.
Why was Gibbins never drafted?

It was weak and very poor leadership from a bloke playing for his career.
But i'm sorry that if this displeases you oh holy one.
Didn't know i had to run it by you first.

Are you for real? Hickey had 58 hitouts, 25 possessions, 8 tackles. Seems he was probably trying.

What if - just throwing it out there for discussion - we actually stopped treating Hickey like a ruckman, and instead treated him like a tall inside midfielder?

Yeah i'm for real!
Couldn't give a toss about his stats.
He did it at least twice. Have not seen that sort of crap since i was playing under 12's

A tall inside midfielder who jumps up and taps the ball?

Did you see him complaining while you were watching it on tv or were you at the ground wearing only a footy jumper , shorts and boots ?

Because given the conditions I have no problem with Hickey complaining twice about being cold and wet as I was warm and dry .

I think you are being very harsh on big Tom as even though he was cold and wet he still put in 100% unlike a lot of other players who were there.


Go Saints

Do toe pokes off the ground count as a kick stat?
Be interesting to know how many there were.
Plus how many kicks went backwards.
Or failed to travel 10 metres.

 

[sunny3193]

Not bruise free footy either given 274 tackles were laid.

Crazy. Almost double the tackles from last week.

Yep he sure did have a crack ,

i think you are onto something now, i totally agree with that statement, which is why i think the result will not go down well internally and the players will be made aware of it in the review, if not we have problems. anyways all speculation on my part.

This shouldn't come as a surprise. AFL players don't give a toss about the VFL unless they are resigned to the fact that they won't be getting a promotion and embrace the VFL team as their primary team (e.g. Tom Lee a couple of years ago). But ordinarily, AFL listed players will do whatever is necessary to get promoted, even if that means going off to play for a different team against the VFL team... completely understandable.

 

[Human Person]

Are Sandy playing again this weekend? Or do they share our bye?

 

[AFLOnline]

Guys... take VFL stats with a very, very, minuscule grain of salt.
