Sadly, I agree. He reached the limit today. Negative now outweighs positive.

Second that sick of seeing him getting run down or butchering the ball.
The guy just doesnt seem to have any awarenessaround him

Re: Get Raph OUT of there!!!
It's not just a one off he's continually been consistent at turning the ball over.
Thanks also to Kosi for his contribution but we cannot move forward with him.

Re: Get Raph OUT of there!!!
Raph Clarke was 20m clear of all opponents running down the center of the ground..
AND GOT RUN DOWN for holding the ball by Harvey?
If ever there was a more clear cut case of 'not AFL standard' i haven't seen it.
Now onto Kosi....

Re: Get Raph OUT of there!!!
Today's hilarious rundown was probably Sam Fisher's fault, again.
Clearly holds the world record of run downs from behind in AFL/VFL history.

Re: Get Raph OUT of there!!!
Did some good things.
But that call about him being run down more times than anybody else in AFL/VFL history definitely has merit.
He has an uncanny ability to go in 2nd gear when the game around him is moving into 5th gear.

Clueless and mediocre petty tyrant.

Now I understand that some footballers are not too clever however he takes being a complete unintelligent bogan dumbshit to a new level.
He is just a genuinely dumb human being.

Re: Get Raph OUT of there!!!
Constantly gets run down
Spoils teammates
Butchers football
No awareness
Brave, but bloody stupid
Jeez he sh*ts me
Should have delisted him years ago

Re: Get Raph OUT of there!!!
I don't understand the hate for this guy. He does at times get caught or
makes skill errors but his run and fearlessness gets over looked. The guy takes the game on more than most others in the back line which in itself takes courage.
I love the guy and would give up the Gilberts and Grams who seem to sneak under the radar and continual bashings most weeks/years.

Like a midget at a urinal, I was going to have to stay on my toes.

Now onto Kosi....
the footage shows his team mates ahead of him jogging without a care in the world.
if that was my team mate, i'd be waving my hands to kick it like a mad man

Re: Get Raph OUT of there!!!
Poor Raph tried hard today and not fair to bag him. He gave his all and put his body on the line a few times but the reality is he is never going to be a game breaker and is really a fringe player at best.
At least he has heart and makes a contest unlike the gutless softc*#k Gram.

Great stuff. Can I sit next to you at the footy next week.
