    mostly, doyle owes himself a lot. if he contributes solidly in the next (hopefully) two games, then he has fulfilled all ledgers. there is no reason to demand or expect a match-winning performance from him. i'll settle for him making a contest at the bounces and around the ground. if he makes any plays or grabs a goal for himself then that's a bonus. i suppose, if he spends a considerable time at ff then we can reasobly expect one or two goals a match.
    then again, i think it would be worth trying 15-16 players on field so what would i know

      He's been pretty good. They could probably give him a bit more ground time actually. Rest him up forward.

        I agree. I still remember his goal against the Kangas in Manuka, "If the right one doesn't get you then the left one will." He is useful around the ground as well as more than useful in the ruck.
        He reminds him of the guys, close-set, slow, and never rattled, who were play-makers on the team. (John Updike, seeing Josh Kennedy in a crystal ball)

            Prenda have you been drinking the stupid juice, I haven't even mentioned his injuries. So when you make a comment like that you make yourself look rather foolish.

              Stephen Doyle doesn't owe anyone anything. This guy has been to hell and back over the past 7 years. He could've cried off like Chambers. Must be one of the most emotionally resilient blokes in the club in my opinion.

              He's just a guy having a go. Respect him for that.

                  I couldn't agree more BarneyG....
                  Let him rest in the forward line...he has been resting for 7 years, this day and age you cant carry players, get rid of him and get another draft pick, if he is injury prone more the reason.......and as for you Hammo, how can someone listen to a fool that has Nick Davis as his Avatar......get rid of him to, he is a sook and hangs his head to easily and did i forget not a team player

                  But have a great day.

                    Cover my tracks??? You are a very illiterate person.

                    il?lit?er?ate (ĭ-lĭt'ər-ĭt) pronunciation
                    adj.

                    1. Unable to read and write.
                    2. Having little or no formal education.
                    1. Marked by inferiority to an expected standard of familiarity with language and literature.
                    2. Violating prescribed standards of speech or writing.
                    3. Ignorant of the fundamentals of a given art or branch of knowledge: musically illiterate. See Usage Note at literate.

                          prenda/Barney, I'm sure you can discuss this without resorting to insults.

                          Barney, if his 7 years were pathetic, but you aren't basing this on his injuries, maybe you'd like to explain what you meant? Might make things easier for others to understand what you were getting at?

                          I'm on the Chandwagon!!!

                          If you cannot compete for the premiership, it's better to be young and exciting than middle-aged and dowdy.

                            Come now plugger, what has he done since apart from causing disharmony.

                            Prenda are you Doyles mum ????

                            I wouldn't have thought he would have time to talk to you , he must have 15 other clubs ringing him for his services.

                            Isn't this fun

                              Fair enough! Click on this link below, these are the stats for the games he has played. As you can see pretty much p!ss poor.

                                Yet if you equated that with the amount of time he's actually spent on the ground, he'd probably come up better than some of the other players. Stats never tell the full story.
