I just think at this point we collectively may have evolved beyond recruiting players on that basis when we know what type of people they are up front. That we know Greene molested and gouged one of our own, kicked another in the face, while punching one other who was much smaller in appalling opportunistic acts then we probably just don't need to take him on board. When we also think about how he puts himself before his team and misses key games because of it then again, I don't think we need to take him on.
The issues with our existing players are partially ours to own and manage. There's a difference between those and taking on someone like Greene.
Fair enough, see your point.
I guess I'm thinking we've got dickheads anyway might as well get one who's also a match winner. But I don't disagree with the crux of what you said.

Re: Operation get Toby Geene
No thanks. Genuinely amazing player, might even be the best player in the league at times, but has done some revolting things on field including many against us and while i think he is not irredeemable i think that's a tough road to put yourself and our supporters on.
Please don't put too much effort into this hypothetical, it's never gonna happen.
I should leave it alone but you're not right

Great thread ReLoad! Stirs the emotions and evokes plenty of freedom of expression.
is there a current player that Bulldog supporters dislike more than Toby Greene? I doubt it. Who would be the Top 10?

Surely Stephen May is in top 10.

I saw Bailey Fritsch in a supermarket the other day. If it wasn't him then it was a bloke who'd gone out of his way to look exactly like him including the haircut and Melbourne sponsor's gear.* It was only 100 metres from Yarraville nets too.
*I couldn't work out why he'd be in a supermarket in Yarraville either.
They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

Clear sign gentrification has gone too far!
Nobody's looking for a puppeteer in today's wintry economic climate.

Re: Operation get Toby Geene
I think TG is destined to live a long life of regret for not jumping ship and chasing money and premierships at a real club like his smarter former teammates. All the best with that TG. I hope the moral posturing, admittedly worse by Phil Davis, makes up for the being of nothing other than a pile of cash and being a former footballer that most people in NSW would still have no idea about.

Re: Operation get Toby Geene
Barry Hall and Toby Greene are completely different. Barry had a temper. Toby intentionally agitates
If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.
