Re: Predict the 5 best Bulldog Players in 2009

Cooney - Mr Brownlow himself
Griffin
Higgins
Adddison - expect him to take a big step up - love this guy
Murphy - many experts say he is the most talented guy in our team - time for him to test this theory.

Honourable mentions to Aker - his last year will be out to prove something
Johno - his hunger is there
Cross - he is our Captain Kirk

Live long and prosper ...

These are my predictions

1. Cooney
2. Griffen
3. Cross
4. Murphy
5. Everitt

This is an old thread but there was a lot of love for Griffen to do well but in my opinion, he didn't quite measure up.

How do you think he went this season?
What went wrong?

Griffen will continue to tantalise. Morris to just miss out, Cross unlucky. Minson may start to feel pressure from Roughead - hopefully.

Are you talking 2010?
This was a look at an earlier pre-season thread that nominated the best players for 2009.

I think you're right, he had some good moments, but to me he didn't really get going until late in the piece. Obviously the loss of his father affected him, hopefully he has a good preseason, and comes out all guns blazing in 2010.

No I don't believe he is. There's no BBBB there.

For more than a quarter this time... :P

I did a list but the problem is it's so boring.

We're a great team and like all great teams we have players with serious work ethic. I reckon if we expanded the number a bit we might get more interesting results

edit: Thats embarassing

He had some flashes of brilliance but was not consistent enough. We know that Rocket changed his role a bit during the season to become more of a run with player and this did work well, without gaining to many possessions, he did the job the coach wanted. He certainty was the player of the last two finals, really showing us his worth. His kicking for goal was not as good as in previous seasons, and really had ample opportunities to nail some big goals.

I am expecting him to really mature next season and show us how he can be a dominant player for us.

Agree on this one. For such a good player, at times he can be a bit casual with his finishing, or a bit rushed and it does let him down. He still would have kicked 15-20 goals for the season though, so not a bad effort for a midfielder.

Hopefully the finals series gives him the confidence to really explode next season.
