Sam Gilbert

[terry smith rules]

Not mentioned as a retiring player at Brownlow

Not doing a lap today (and with 200 games he qualifies)

Seems a bit odd

[BackFromUSA]

Wants to continue playing. Can be picked up by any club as an uncontracted player. Hoping he gets a gig somewhere.

he'll get picked up by a c Grade Ammos team, at best

[Barneysaint]

He was finished 2 years ago.

[saint6709]

His last game was good and he is the type of guy who gives 100% if he is not AFL standard 2019 I’m not sure who is

[Trev from the Bush]

Noted he was not mentioned in the retiring players story in the GF Footy Record, either.

Wellard and Barney, do us all a favour and drink some vinegar, it might curb your obsessive urge to bag and bad-mouth a 200 game player who gave his all for our Club. While keeping a sour look on your face.

Maybe other clubs are talking to him eg Gold Coast,so he's got dfa interest from them?

Southport will be keen as mustard.

There are over 300 players I could name who are more 'AFL standard' than Gilbert.
He is currently ranked 313th in the AFL.

If you are still not sure who is AFL standard - I can get you started:

Luke Shuey is AFL standard
Dustin Martin is AFL standard

I can keep listing names if you still dont know.

396 players play AFL every round. Another 54 are emergencies. So 450 AFL standard players every week.

Being ranked 313th means he is still of the standard.

Ok. So you are saying Sam Gilbert 2019 is a star player?

He was a gun player in 08 to 10 and had a wonderful career. Well done to him.

But it is now approaching 2019 and he is now cooked.

Then lets see who the keyboard hero is.

Keep it up Benny you will end up with the same relevance as Con. I actually liked Con's posts until he lost the plot as well. I am surprised you never squeezed in something about the coach being hopeless like you do in just about every post you make. Anyhow keep the abuse up, it suits you.

I understand Gilbo works hard but I wasn’t following him much in those years- I’d watch Milney etc., a ton more. But just to ask, what we’re Gilbos initial strengths? What made him good in ‘08-‘10. Not dissing him in the least, just curious.

Ha ha ha gold!

Wants to continue playing. Can be picked up by any club as an uncontracted player. Hoping he gets a gig somewhere.

Why not try trading him with GC and Wellet as a package for a 2nd round pick?

He was fast, athletic, read the play well, good at ground level, took the game on, worked hard to provide an option on the rebound and provided great defensive pressure including ferocious tackling. He could take a forward of just about any size and accumulated plenty of the footy. His kicking was always suspect but that was pretty much the only knock on him in his prime.

Unfortunately injuries took a massive toll on his body and the Duthie scandal ruined his confidence. Playing in poor teams without great defensive structures around him made his inconsistent disposal even more of an issue and he was a pretty ordinary player after our grand final years.
