    I hope not. He seems like his best is well & truly past him.

    I would be reluctant to swap him for Markovic, he's an undisciplined spud of the highest order.

    Poor mans Dale Morris who can't crack into the Carlton side.

    Of course he wants to play with the Doggies!

    Could be a depth player, makes okay decisions and is relatively clean down back. Knows how to help out fellow defenders but is seriously undersized.
    But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

    Should have gone to Hawthorn when he had the chance. Big dollars, and he'd be a premiership player too. Not for us. Next!

    My shock isn't at your post but your Avatar, Greystache no more!? I do though understand it is to get a good message across

    Oh, and Thornton can't even play in a VFL Premiership side, pass.

    Did anyone see him at the PF? He was asking people in the crowd to jump the fence and fight him at 3 quarter time. I've got no doubt that the Willy fans were asking for it but this guy is suppose to be an AFL footballer and got sucked in by a few people in the crowd.

    Unbelievable! I am not surprised in the slightest, if he wasn't playing footy he'd be beating up old ladies on the train.

    I was at a game last year between Essendon and Carlton, he gave away a soft free kick to Lloyd 40m out, he abused the umpire and gave away a 50m penalty, Lloyd goaled and they all went to Thornton to let him know, so he smashes into Alwyn Davey right infront of the umpire who paid a freekick and Davey goaled, Davey laughed at him so he smashed into him from behind again. If the umpire wasn't piss weak he would've paid another free kick. All the while Carlton were up by 2 goals and Essendon were surging, naturally Carlton ended up losing.

    Agree, he's not an AFL standard footballer.
