Leo Barry the Forward

[Triple B]

..... but I was at Leo's first game.
I think it was Optus Oval.

Leo's first game was 1995, Rd 22 v Pies at the SCG.

I remember because a group of about 20 mates hired the ACB box at the SCG. Late in the game, Leo had a kick from the 50, just inside the boundary in front of the old hill and I told all and sundry he would kick it because (a) he is a good kick and (b) I was pissed.

He kicked it.

did anyone notice that ted richards played up forward for most of the first half?

would have worked if he was the lead up forward rather than buchanan.

there was also a couple of times in the game when jude bolton has the urge to handball rather than clearly kick at goal and also snap rather than handball. this was the first time i missed adam schneider.

Yep, remember the game and goal well. Dermie's last ever game and one T.Lockett dragged us over the line and put the Bears into the finals.

I like to see Adam Goodes at Centre Half Forward.

Screamer of a mark too IIRC.........

My mate looked at me after he'd kicked it and said "Who the hell was that???... Doesn't matter.... He can play again next year!!"

[Eala ?ireann]

get rid of him. every time he runs more than a yard with the ball he stuffs it up.

It would be interesting to see Leo running in for a set shot and taking 2 or 3 bounces then run into the man on the mark. If he was a forward option why was he moved back in the first place?

We had better other forward options coming through and Dunkley retiring leaving Schauble (ahhh, lets imagine what this would be like if he had continued playing ) at FB so another defender was required, IIRC.
