He just can't do what Dangerfield did tonight. If he could, we'd be talking about him, not Dangerfield.
I get what you're saying but Bont can do it to. He just needs guys to kick goals from 20m out directly in front.

Seems like tonight would've been a fair night to prove he can, instead his direct opponent did.

The only relevant flag stat is the year were in. Anything else is sweet nostalgia.
I thought ten suited my argument better.

I would take the Bont anytime over that protected species Dangerfield. You can agree or not and that is fine.

Anyone else's weekend now f*cked?
Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

What has the past got to do with it, At present Danger has no flags and whilst I really rate him as a player has he ever stood up and said, I' m the one to lead this club into the future?
It's better to die on our feet than live on our knees.

And by the way no one seemed to care when he lost his headband ..! Why was the game allowed the continue !
Quite valid questions GG. At first i thought that Bont may have taken it off to pull over Bruce's eyes. It may have helped.

He is 24 with 3 x b and f, 2 x AA, AFLCA best player award and a flag? What can't he do.
Tonight is tough to swallow I feel your pain.

I can point you to fairly recent example where he did.

Chris Grant also had no flags, was he no good as a leader of the club?
Dangerfield has pulled the Cats over the line more times than Bont has for us, that's for sure.

I don't want you or anyone to think the man crush I have for Bont is in any way diminished. I'm not angry, I'm just disappointed.
That would have been a prize scalp.
