    On the Ryan Camp thing... that'd be a great place to go to. Would it mean it'd just be filled with Ryan clones???? Ahhhhh

        While you're at it then... a Tadgh, Jude and Amon wouldn't go astray either.

          Counted leo's run in slo-mo...15 strides from bouncing the ball...very very unlucky to be pinged, especially considering how far McPhee runs with the ball....but then again we haven't paid out $20,000 (I know it gets boring but ain't it the truth)...
          "Davis...Davis has kicked 2...he snaps from 40...dont tell me, dont tell me, hes kicked a goal....unbelievable stuff from Nick Davis, can you believe this, he's kicked 3 final quarter goals and Swans are within 3 points..."

              The othe thing about the way Barry runs (particularly compared with McPhee) is that he doesn't take huge strides. He is one of those players who runs with a lot of very quick short steps, which suits his preference for dodging as much as possible. Therefore it is pretty unlikely that 15 steps would be 15m for him anyway.
              Captain Logic is not steering this tugboat.

                Was that 2001 or indeed 2002?

                Think Fossy was most improved and Fix got best first year player!

                  I know the one where Ryan got the gong was 2001 as it was the first best and fairest dinner I'd been to. It was also the year Dale lewis, Jon Stevens and Luffy retired as they had a tribute to them. It was also the night Stafford found out he'd been traded and he was one cranky boy.

                    What? his body work and playreading have long been features of his game. the first mark which he took was classic "magic" play. if anyone else took that mark it would be a talking point for months. with magic, we just expect that sort of stuff. as someone else pointed out, if his kicking for goal had been accurate....

                    dermott brereton once described him as "two parts brilliance, one part freak" or words to that effect anyway.

                      Yeah I think you (and Bam Bam) are right - it was 2002 that Benny F won the best first year player. But I think it was that year (ie 2002) that Kennelly was edged out for it (when I and my table thought he was a shoe-in) because he only played a handful of tentative AFL games in 2001. Certainly it was 2002 when he received a RS nomination - for one of those wonderful Roos (Kanga) matches.
