Another Buchanan Thread

[mocaholic]

Is it just me, or will this bloke be the next Dean Kemp? Not for silky skills or a non-Vic NS Medallist (heaven forbid!), but for retiring prematurely for repeated concussions.

Every game he gets clocked on the loaf at some stage. At least once. Time to get the helmet a la Phil Narkle or Silvio Foschini I reckon. Nathan Burke did it for 300 games....

Anyhow, a good game from him, his best for the year as has been stated earlier. God I wish his kicking was better.

Needs to start wearing the leather helmet.

Maybe he should remove the "Sherrin" tattoo from his forehead.

[monopoly19]

Maybe he should stop playing for free kicks and just get on with it.

[Ruck'n'Roll]

I think of him as the next Peter Filandia, both quick off the mark, but happy at the bottom of packs, only got a short kick but quickish hands and are very mediocre goal-sneaks.

Incidentally we used to own a fox terrior called Monty (true) and he was a crazy beast that kept charging round and chasing people (perhaps that's what Johnson meant when he called him a dog)?

Apparently he was trying to take 10 seconds to regroup after being poked in the eye. May have been distracted by being kicked and called "a weak cxxx" while lying on the ground.

And it's nice to see that the umpiring board is no better when dealing with its own than it is with players. The statement that his decision was wrong, they have stated, was issued without actually discussing it with him. And he says he just said "weak dog" as he knew his mic would pick up the term actually used if he repeated it.

Poor Plunge. I'm sure he'll be forever remembered for that. A bit like Brad Wira, and Terry Wheeler.

Monty is definitely better than the Plunger.

Then bring Hopoate into the team and we could get a bunch of much more interesting recruits. Add handcuffs and the nut-puncher from the Freo-Saints game and we have a contest. Baz in leather.

By the way, what is the Kirk "face licking" story over at BigFooty?

I think kirk proved what an effective tagger he really is while away for the IR series.

There are some pretty extraordinary stories out there, about the IR series. But I haven't heard any about Kirk.

But most of the players are followling the standard rule. "What happens on the footy trip, .....".

But also another side issue on another thread (Maxfield captaincy?) mentioned licking Hird from nose to forehead (?). From last week's Footy Show?
