The great appeal of his nickname for our family and circle of friends is that it is shared with a real local, Footscray icon, Doc McCartney. Was always going to be well received in our household.

Forgot he was such a good kick. Loving his work this year
If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.

With the Hawks highlights, it seemed they played him more as a small fwd with occassional stints in the middle
His a good hard tackler
Looks like his become a better overhead mark at the doggies.
Highlights show his always been a strong tackler.
Just knows how to play the percentages well and is strong in the 1-1 contest. That last spoil against Oscar Allen was great footage in slow motion.
Very strong kick, especially for distance.
Thank you for coming to the dogs, and its been wonderful seeing you become an even better and more rounded player for us Doc.
Its been a great year for the doggies, which a few players hitting that 100-150 game range.

Re: Congratulations Doc Duryea - 150 AFL Games
I was also meh about his recruitment. I remember him making a silly mistake in a final for Hawthorn where I thought this bloke is finished, next minute he was on our list. But since he has been with us he has sort of matured into a really reliable footballer who plays the percentages which is exactly what we need. I'm very happy with him and we are a better team with him in it.
Congratulations Doc on your 150th. Hopefully you get some more premiership medals in your trophy cabinet
They've done studies you know, 60% of the time, it works every time!
