VFL Rd 3 Sandringham Vs Collingwood

[Premium89]

Paddy has 5?

well.. 6 now

make it 7

he'd probably have 4 if he'd made the trip over bass strait, the way the hawks game is going!

[Wayne42]

Go Paddy

[shrodes]

Sandringham 17. 11 - 113 defeat
Collingwood 12.21 - 93!!

[SemperFidelis]

Paddy apparently lined up for number 8, but got removed for the blood rule - Sav kicked it for him

[Linton Lodger]

Well done Paddy, stick it right up them.

[BigMart]

Up who?

A third year, ex-No.1 pick would be expected to tear it up against poor AFL opposition

[saint-stu]

But I thought he was overweight? unfit? couldn't take a mark? too short? had no elite abilities?

Jeez, talk about negative. Let's enjoy a positive once in a while BM

[BigMart]

No, I'm happy for him.. but put it in context... Collingwood VFL, not much chop

It is a positive that he kicked a bag

[repta]

Well done Paddy.
There is a huge gap between 'supposed to' and 'actually do'.
Today he did what he had to do. Good work. Let's hope it gives him the confidence he needs

Think you should know the answer to that.

The press of course.

for christ's sake, save that input for an analysis thread or something, we're just trying to celebrate and enjoy our boys putting in a good effort. It's not needed and this is why you piss everyone off all the time

[saintsRrising]

ex-No.1 pick

How does one become an ex-No 1 Pick?

Someone said he was lining up for his 8th and was sent off with the blood rule.
Is this true?

Yes it is true on both counts.

[saintly]

Collingwood VFL are poor.
McCartin needs a bag.
Very excited about the Irish lads.

Mccartin got his bag

[saynta]

Looks like their second tier players are as bad at kicking for goal as their firsts.

[BigMart]

Well, he's not the current #1 pick... he plays for Essendon

And, I am very happy for Paddy, however, I expect that level of performance in the VFL not hope for it!

People trying to rub StK supporters nose in the fact he played well, is what is strange... I hope he kicks 7 in the afl

[Bluthy]

Great job from Paddy. Really showed some people up today. You can see how out of joint their noses are.

[BigMart]

Yes, we are so pissed off... damn Paddy!!!

Our #1 pick playing well, that's ruined my weekend!!!

[fugazi]

Great work Paddy. Learn to dominate.

[borderbarry]

Paddy back in, who goes out?

[Sainter_Dad]

No change - unless forced by General Soreness - Paddy can tear it up in the 2's until he believes that he deserves it.

Paddy is a weapon - and I love the romance - and believe he will tear it up in the AFL - but he needs to make the position his own - and playing 2's he can do that - I believe he was rushed into the 1's simply because he is a Number 1 pick. Give him time to develop his big body

Sorry should have realised it was all about BigMart today, and not that Paddy kicked 7 and basically really 8, nor about the Saints excellent win.

No what is strange is coming on the forum after such a great day to post crap like " A third year, ex-No.1 pick would be expected to tear it up against poor AFL opposition".
