    I get it. But I don't at the same time.
    He's not even 21. He should not be eligible for this poll.
    What should I tell her? She's going to ask.

      I'm just happy that Gards is still on zero votes.

      Once upon a time a guy who had to scrap just to get on an AFL list, then works his arse off every training session, would have been celebrated. Sometimes the way we criticise players is way over the top

        I think he's won a lot of respect on here to come as far as he has, much like other former whipping boy Roarke Smith.
        I should leave it alone but you're not right

          Should have played in the GF.
          Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

            Some of the whipping boys are not given a chance, especially if they are young or inexperienced.

                Spot on. His first season was terrible but he’s grown and persisted and I think is now broadly recognised as a key part of our best 26 despite continuing to have limitations.
                Have you heard Butters wants to come to the Dogs?

                          Thread needs more Ben Harrison.
                          They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

                              Both number 22! (Cullen and Harrison). Might be cursed.

                                Bald headed one came good though from memory.

                                Jarrad Grant, Mitch Honeychurch, Ayce Cordy, even Sam Power……

                                Of current players it’s Hannan or Cordy for me and hope both prove me very wrong.
