Buddy CHEAT

[Rosy]

Haha tigger I guess you have a point. I think it's the Muvva in me. I'd hate to read about my son being bagged that way when he was starting out. Then again I guess all the attention is a back-handed compliment. People wouldn't be on opposition kids cases if they were crap.

Buddy is one of the rare players that I would pay to go and watch, without the tigers being involved. I used to feel the same way about gary ablett snr, michael voss and andrew mcleod. Why not just marvel at his genius for the game we all love? :hearton

Franklin's sheer blatant arrogance puts me off him, possibly the biggest figjam/icy pole type player I can remember.

Agree IG, perhaps if the media stopped telling him he is so good, then he might learn a little humility never hurt anyone.

 

[GoodOne]

Every time he kicks for goal from a set shot he runs off the line and the umps don't call "play on".

It's probably not Duddy that is cheating, but the AFL who don't drop the UMPS that allow him to get away with it.

Let him do it, it affects his kicking terribly. The last thing I want to see is them straighten up Buddy on his set shots for goal. It's his biggest flaw.

The reason people are so bitter about Buddy is because Hawks fans and the media haven't stopped rubbing our noses in it that we didn't pick him and picked Richard instead.
We had to put up with Dawk trolls babbling on endlessly about him opposed to Tambling. Even Bling has had a gutful of it.
That is why people feel justified in getting into him at every opportunity. Richmond people feel we have to stick up for Tambling (and also because Buddy has such an arrogant attitude and Richie is the complete opposite in humility)

 

[Baloo]

If Richmond people stopped reacting to it then people would stop the comparisons. It's only because rise to the bait and then start our own comparisons after a bad Buddy day that keeps the topic alive at all.

Mention Griffen v Buddy to a Dogs supporter and they really don't give a damn.

Continually checks himself out on the Big Screen at the ground.

Real "Love Me Do".

Its a wonder he doesnt blow kisses to himself. :

He's hardly the lone ranger when it comes to self-adulation. Kayne Pettifer was another one. Couldn't keep his eyes off himself when he appeared on the big screen. I laugh at those who try really hard NOT to look at themselves a la Richo. His eyes swim around like an oil blob on a piece of glass when he knows he's on the big screen. Gotta love him ;D

Maybe stripes but at the time of the draft we had posters on here urging others to spam HHQ and let them all know about our good fortunes compared to their dud choices.

Duddy chases Cotch through the middle (3rd qtr from memory) and behind play shoves him in the back and drops him. Real pig of an act Bunny, and you probably think you are a hero for that because the umps didn't see it.

It was good though to see Moore drop him a minute later and walk away like nothing happened.

Good on you Cotch for getting under their skins and Good on you Moore for sticking up for a team mate.

More Moore :clap

 

[Six Pack]

Franklin is a very good player and these complaints about him are ignorant and in poor taste. I am sure we'd love him at the Tigers.

Having said that, i'm glad he didnt kick straight and we had a win!!! :clap
