Re: Ekers

I disagree on the eker tag but I do see a bit of Peter Quill in Tutt.

This and i was a big fan of Quill he was much more than an eker for mine

If there was an award for the most kicks out on the full, he would win by a street.

You might want to uncover the other eye.
He was built but never used his physicality much and kicked the ball high.

Bugger another one of my faves loved blanket .Just as an aside Desi just because I don't agree with you don't suggest for a minute that don't watch the game. I never said he was a superstar i just liked watching him just as I liked Rod McPherson and he was no star either!!!

Sorry if I offended you. I was not suggesting you do not watch the game. I too liked watching Rod McPherson play and also liked watching John Bennett kick a bag in the ressies.

Adam Pattison, take a bow. Now at his third AFL club, despite never really showing anything.

Also McQualter to the suns. A good day for the Ekers.

Pattison is starting to enter hall of fame territory

Re: Ekers

Mark Austin at his second club, 6 years in the system for 15 games, maybe worth a watch.

Re: Ekers

Austin's got to be close to Dylan on our list. In fact, considering that he's been in the system for 6 years while barely playing and moved clubs via the rookie list to remain an AFL player, I would suggest that his ekerism is more impressive than Dylan's (who is a hard head and would have at least impressed Macca with his intensity during pre-season).

Re: Ekers

Oh, and Malcolm Lynch HAS to be considered an Eker now, having completed the most impressive of eker feats: being picked up a year or more after being delisted.. onto a ROOKIE LIST no less, that natural habitat of ekers.

I mean, a Krakeour (sp?) gets picked up by Collingwood after starring at a lower level, and slots straight into their first 22 and contributes -- that's an impressive story in terms of redemption but not an eker story, but for Malcolm to get delisted after doing nothing at the Dogs, then do barely enough for a club to put him on their rookie list? That's eker genius written all over it.

Wait wait wait wait wait...

How can Dylan be our eker when Mulligan is still on our list?

RJ's thread, RJ's rules.

Refer the norm smith thread.

My take is Addison got a new deal, where as Mulligan was still in contract.

If Mulligan gets another contract Im sure he will be elevated to eker leader again.
