Default Time to get excited take two.

The real forward stood up on the week end.

There was no look at me look at me about it.
There was no skirt in a knot after the game.
There was no having his number taken because he was a frustrated girl.
Just a gritty six goals with an average midfield feeding him. You know, natural selection suggests the stronger get fed first.

Discuss.

Do you not like Franklin as a person, or do you genuinely think he's no good?

To be honest, I would have no idea what sort of a person he is. I feel too many Hawk supporters expect too much from him.

He is not a superstar.

Fair enough. I personally reckon he is a very talented player, even though he still has a few problem areas in his game, and he's still only a kid.
Oh, and off the topic, what ever happened to Chaddy?

And I agree with you. He has the making of something special, but lets not get ahead of his career.

The majority of my posts are a windup too, so don't forget that.

I think Chaddy put the bin out and couldn't find his way home.

Go the HAWKS.

Roughead is a hardcore gun.

Here comes the Crimson Chin!

Bird of prey. Spirit is the best person to ask about Chaddy.
Apparently there was a BBQ happening on the weekend so he can update you.

re: Buddy v roughead they're very different players but i think you'd struggle to find a club that would take roughy over buddy.

Roughy has it over buddy in that he is a much better mark, a slightly more reliable kick and a handy ruck option.

For me their differences were highlighted when we played essendon, fletcher looked pretty good one on one against roughead and ryder was doing OK on buddy. They switched and both of the defenders looked second class.

but they're are hard to compare given they're so different.
