Milestone for Harvs in 2008 !!

Post: # 509425Post Eastern »

Another Milestone for Robert Harvey in 2008 !!

If my calculations are correct (I have Harvs currently on 360 games), he will go past Simon Madden to become 3rd on the most games list in 2008. If he plays every game, this will occur at an away game :evil: :twisted: v Collingwood on a Sat Night game on Aug 9, or if he misses 3 games during the year it would be Rd 22 v Essendon.

I do hope that our club can devise a way to turn it into a major event that is a "Cash Cow" for the club. If either of the above occurs, he will play his Milestone game in front of a HUGE crowd !!

Plus
he has the chance to become the highest ever Brownlow votegetter

Plus
he will extend his already record number of possessions well past 9,000

Imagine if he did win a Brownlow? I am sure his form will never be what it was, but I am sure he got a few best on grounds in 07...who knows. Brownlow and a premiership for harvs? Wouldn't that be a dream come true, both for him and us!

Sorry posted in the wrong topic.

It was inappropriate for such a worthy topic.


I am still hurting from 71;
my gut churns thinking of 97;
2009 was agony,
2010a was a pleasure to watch only to be devastated by 2010 b.
It hurts barracking for the Saints

It would be great if he could go top 3, realistically he will never come in the top 2, they are just too far ahead...

If Harvey could average about 20 disposals a game, get 8 brownlow votes, win a flag, make AA and win the Norm Smith that would just be the best thing ever!!

He would have the most ever brownlow votes, the equal most ever AA's aswell as a flag and a Norm Smith!!


ROBERT HARVEY A.K.A The Great Man, Banger, Harves, Ol' Man River...
384 games, 4 B&F's, 3 EJ Whitten Medals, St.Kilda Captain, 2 Time Brownlow Medalist, 8 Time All Australian, 2nd Highest Brownlow votes poller.... The greatest of ALL TIME!!

IMO my favourite line I ever put on BF was when someone asked 'would players from the 1980s cut it in modern football"

my answer was robert harvey

IMO I won the thread :lol:

stuff the special events etc, I want em all on the park all of the time.


Only 1 event I care about and that is being there in September.


That being said, 350th against WC at Subi, was an amazing game! but only cause we won it.

I watch every game as if its his last, I never single out any1 in particular cause been as old as he is.....hes only 1 major injury away from ending his career.....

Then when the milestone games do come around, it becomes a bonus!!!
