I get the pantomime Greene hate but Finlayson is a douche who stinks it up regularly in big games. I'm on a unity ticket with you on this dickhead.
Greene is a top 15 player in the competition and one of the most pure footballers going around. He suffers from the red mist but his talent and footy IQ are off the charts. He's actually being wasted in his prime the last couple of years in a pretty ordinary mid table team. I struggle to even dislike him now.

Purely talking on the ground, and to be honest the last couple of years he has let his talent do the talking much moreso than his fists. I can admire pure football talent, especially when it is usually a forlorn task in a mediocre team.
Off the ground is a different story. Having said that, he not the lone ranger when it comes to unacceptable behaviour away from the club.

Might be a good footballer but still an absolute dickhead. Laying on top of of The Bont and pressing his elbows into his neck, is just not on.

Woody was right in there to fly the flag. We'll never let 2019 repeat itself again.
Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

Call it for what it is, rather than red mist. He is a *!*!*!*!wit, who often does opportunistic dirty things to vulnerable people.
Agree with everything else about his talent, he is an out and out gun.
Nobody's looking for a puppeteer in today's wintry economic climate.

Agree with the standard of the press conference questions. A breath of fresh air. I enjoyed him on the 'Danny Boyd' podcast a couple of weeks ago.

Re the scratches, after the match the cameras focused on a couple of others who had them. Woody may have been one.

Whatever we think of Greene, it certainly adds a bit to the match build up when the opposition has a villain. Once upon a time i think every side had at least one.

Re: WB Game Day V GWS Giants R6 2021
Great hard fought win last night from our team. Our midfield work was great. We were excellent at the clearances. Libba such an important player in our team. The downside were the injuries. I feel for Lin Jong. No luck. Hopefully English and Dunkley will be ok.
Enjoyed a pub meal at the Victoria Hotel in Footscray today and chatted to the guy who served me about the Dogs start. Drove also in Braybrook a bit past the Skinner Reserve down Churchill Avenue, Duke Street and South Road which would be familiar to woofers who grew up in Braybrook.

He's amazing. Don't think I'll ever be able to say I struggle to dislike him, because I'm a noble romanticist, but he is an out and out incredible player.

No doubt it's the excellent upbringing his father gave him that leads to his wonderful attitude to life and his respect for his opponents.

Re: WB Game Day V GWS Giants R6 2021
Greene’s my favourite non-Dogs player, which was set in stone in that game where he punted Dahl in the face only to take a hanger and kick a goal like 30 seconds later. The sooner you all accept that there is no justice or fairness in the world the happier you’ll all be.

These I loathe
These days I loathe Himmelberg more than Greene and Finlayson
The fight is here; I need ammunition, not a ride.
