no a majority of supporters don't go for collingwood, they may have the most members but supporters, no way. and how can u compare people thinking buddy's a star to people supporting collingwood? your just being ridiculous. the 1 thing that people said at the start of the season that buddy needs to improve on to become a truly great player was taking contested mark's, he's added that to his game now. and for him kicking straight, the majority of his kicks on goal from set shots come from 1 position out wide and for a left footer he's got a pretty good ratio from that spot considering the ball swings away. i could go on but i'd just embarrass u

You still haven't validated your ridiculous claim of everyone?

I would say Harold Halt would do the pre game entertainmet, before I would say that Lance isn't a champion.

That just means I would be wrong twice. freo windings for anyone who thinks Lance aint a superstar!:wacko :

Feathers or a bird, or feathers of the bird, quack quack!

No, if you went on the only person embarrased would be you at the sheer volume of typos. Lets see if I can figure out what you're saying:

1) You understand my point about a majority not automatically being right

2) You assume what a majority said without backing up outlandish claims

3) You say that if he was in a better position he'd be more accurate.

Why am I reminded of the absurd cop out argument 'god works in mysterious ways'? Lance Franklin is a big boy now, he doesn't need defending if he's as good as you claim. Small time curmudgeons like me aren't going to impact on his reputation or reduce you to tears. He doesn't care about what I think, and he cares about people like you even less.

Yeah thanks for the replys fellas!
I think that buddy is favoured by most supporters of the game, however there will always be the jealous supporters (collingwood etc.). Although he still has devolpment left on his goal kicking, he already is superstar of the game even if he has his off days on kicking for goal like 2.11 points or 4.9 points, Last year he was one of the least accurate forwards for goal. Despite this he has an x factor that no other player has.

I don't think buddy is anywhere near a superstar yet. He's a young man starting to realise his true potential but it will take more than 18 months of decent footy to prove he is the former to me. He is only doing what Richo has done for the past 15 years and Richo is still not recognised by a large proportion as being a genuine superstar of the game. Another 5 years at this rate and i'm likely to change my mind but for now the big emu is a pleasure to watch and a highly promising youngster.
