    Re: Dogs look to promote another rookie

    Great news for the kid and I look forward to seeing JJ play as i haven't seen any vision of him at Willi yet.

    Only negative on the article was having it confirmed that Mulligan really did play 3 games last year. I had already deleted those 3 games out of my memory for my own sanity but have now relived them all over again. I would say unfortunately that James was the worst player i have ever seen wear the red, white & blue.

          Name rings a bell but do not recall seeing him play seniors so Mulligan still has the number 1 ranking.

            I see them. They're over there with Alistair Ford waving to us.
            They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

                Need more Tim Walsh- 1 game in 5 years and first year out of the AFL system not able to hold CHF in the B grade amateurs.

                  He's my son's physical education teacher. Parent teacher interviews usually go something like "How's he going" "He's excellent-no problems with him at all" and then we talk about football for half an hour. But yeah, weird, weird kicking style. Of course it was his job to kick the ball in after the opposition kicked a point.

                  I kick, 1 goal must be some sort of record. I dont know any other player who has a 100% kick to goal ratio in AFL/VFL history.

                  Nick played a couple of games in 2003. You'd be excused for not remembering them.

                    Are posters just naming terrible players or do they really believe that these players are worse than Mulligan?

                    Tim Walsh had more natural ability than Mulligan ever had. Mulligan does not have an ounce of natural ability.

                      But it's not just ablity that makes a good footballer. Abilty gets you a chance (in most cases-some make it on sheer dertermination or a family name), that's it.

                        I agree but Mulligan doesn't have ability, determination, family name or anything for that matter. He seems to have got a game because it was late in the year & we wanted to see how he went. He was put on the list because of his height & he can run.

                            I like to call it "the Mulligan effect".

                              Get off the fence and tell us what you really think.


                              I'd happily see us promote and try another rookie. Not a Willy watcher, though if JJ has pace, can run and carry and penetrate with his kicking them we don't have anything to lose really.
                              TF is this?.........Obviously you're not a golfer.
