off the' hit' list

'The Hyphen' has been used here sporadically... but LRT is sooo much easier.

And yes, I suspect that they've been lurking. HI HERALD-SUN!! Any explanation why the paper was only 64 pages this morning? NOT HAPPY!

I think warfey and Leo are almost week by week propositions

Des, I never thought you would really consider Leo a week by week proposition??

What do you know that the rest of us don't?

His headless shook ways come off about 70% of times, some are shockers but most are great. He backs himself and when his hands find a target in space, say Tadgh, we are off and our rebounds are just fantastic and the toast of the footy world.

Leo gives me at least 3 heart attacks a week but even though Ben kicked a few on him, Roosy made him play on him all day.

Leo gave away 12 cms in height, 15 kgs in weight and 30 meters in kicking power. I still reckon Leo did alright.

If Leo has a bad game next week, are you saying that he won't be in the team the following week?

Don't know about that Bron, but if it helps we will let you claim it.

I don't know exactly where it came from but I know the acronym has been around from very early in his career.

I dropped my acronyms here last year, but it goes back a few years on this and the previous site. I spoke to him about it at the Guernsey presentation a couple of years ago too. Said something like you're our FSC - he looked blankly at me and then got it. And at last, it's looking like it will happen. I read one of the other guys in the team last week say he had that Kelly look about him. I always felt that. So determined. Just look at his face when the ball is near him. Totally focused.

I can confirm that Bron was indeed the origin of the 'FSC' acronym. What were the others? BSMBH - Be Still My Beating Heart... and... was it BTB? Bron's Toy Boy?

He will be, I have no doubt about that, but if he plays a bad one maybe he should be looked at, however they seem to love him so I think he will remain in the side.

IMO, there are players at the club, not in the side, that when fit are better than Leo Barry, but I doubt very much that anyone would agree with that, as everyone on the board absolutely loves Leo.

You got it Charlie! All my family and friends, and even my clients know what BSMBH stands for! As my laptop wallpaper is a passing parade of great swans photos, it's always out there when I do a presentation or workshop! Got a great photo of Jude taking a mark in the Lions game on one and Goodesy same game on the other.

(but I don't want a spat!)

while the women love jude's good looks (sorry girls) and blonde locks... id really love for him to shave his head, there is something about midfielders (not just jude) who have that style of hair that makes them look a tad soft... i reckon if he shaved his head itd make him look 10 times tougher and 10 times a better footballer... thats my two cents worth anyhow...

i have noticed though that shorter hair makes a player look tougher... look at kris barlow for instance, he looked like a pansy last year and this year he looks commanding

same goes for when maxy cut his hair (took me a while to recognise him at first) but it made him look so much tougher

[Jeffers1984]

no IMO he should keep his hair as it is..not because of looks (i'm a guy) but because he has a greater chance of getting free kicks when he throws his head back when he think he's taken high. His hair flying back at pace makes the tackle 10 times worse. lol i just want anything to give us the edge over the maggots

[penga]

it is true, that does make the discretion look worse

he is our club leader at 'frees for' atm

still, i reckon itd make him look harder...

thats one thing i admire about bolton, he is a pretty boy but damn does he go in hard... that tackle that buckley laid on him in the forward 50 in the last (maybe third) quarter was a shocker and jude did not milk anything from it, he got straight up and kicked the goal... if that was a magpie, im positive they wouldve tried to milk the 50...

i think he would get more media attention that he deserves if he shaved his head, as he would no longer be the "in-and-under-pretty-boy" he would be the "in-and-under-hard-nut"

cosider it jude!!!

What about Powell

He certainly looks pretty tough to me with his mop !

You never know, maybe the longer his hair gets, the tougher he gets.

This kid could turn out to be the best of all of our new blood.
