Boomer=Figjam.
I admire boomer for his career, but never have I seen a captain of a AFL club play as a individual with every week trying to kick goal of the year.
After the game when interviewed all he could talk about was missing that goal which would have given him 5 for the match.
Riewoldt is all class.................

Their Milney has a second in a Brownlow and a premiership medallion and didn't choke in his GF appearance.
Our Milne is more of a Leon Davis but without the ability to play on the half back line!

Re: Boomer=Figjam.
Milney earnt respect as a footballer in 2010. That's when he became a champion. Don't know if it was the heartache of '09 or if it was Roo missing through injury that motivated him, but he was phenomenal in 2010 as the go to forward. He single handedly won games off his own boot and he also had a good finals series...just wish he'd done it a year earlier
Re: Boomer=Figjam.
If he had been a saints player we probably win 2 flags. Star and he hasnt been Captain for at least 2 years.

Re: Boomer=Figjam.
You're kidding about Judd, right? His onfield behaviour has been appalling in the last few years. Enough for me to completely disregard any of his football achievements.
Goodes has been lucky at the tribunal a few times too,with some incidents.

If you class Milne's acts as silly then the same is said about Judd.stevie wrote:You're kidding about Judd, right? His onfield behaviour has been appalling in the last few years. Enough for me to completely disregard any of his football achievements.

None of his acts are off the ball. They are stupid...from the pressure points to the chicken wing...Not sniping, just stupid.

earnt respect ....OK
Milne and champion in the same sentence????
Done well to play all those games and kick a big number of goals, but cost us plenty of goals going the other way.
Plays in a position that has largely become extinct at other clubs,
but can't play anywhere else.
best small forward ever?? a bit like saying a bloke is the best 20th man ever because he can only go for 15 minutes and is therefore always selected as 20th man.
No disrespect to the bloke as he has made the most of his career, but posters need to open the other eye sometimes!
