Pettifer well done!

Mind boggling that on a website supposedly run and populated by football fans that so few people actually even know what a half forward flanker is meant to do.

For those of you that are unaware, if he kicks a few goals (around 40 is gold standard), gets a few goals assists (Kayne was at stages of the season leading the AFL in this), and pushes up the ground once in awhile to be a link man (Kayne leads most of the HFF in the league in his ability to do this) then he has more than done his job!

Kayne, although unfashionable and clearly unpopular for his lack of hardness, is in so many other ways one of the best half forward flankers in the AFL.

Get used to seeing him in a Tigers jumper and stop wasting your time on threads like this.
 
Suggest that all those bagging Pettifer for being 'soft', go back over the tapes of the last few games and count how many contests Raines and Newman have pulled out of.

Agree throw Pathetifer and 18 at Saints / Crows or even Essendon as they are in the market for such a player.

Pettifer and Pick 18 for Pick 11? Is that what you're saying?

Absolutely top post.

Agree with every single word.

Sums up how I see Petts as well.

Let alone Petts being best 18 - hes TOP 10 - closing on TOP 5 for worth to this side.

Very important player in our team if we want to kick goals.

Tend to agree. Takes all types to make up a side and we don't have too many perfect players.
 
Pathettifer has improved in all areas this year IMO.

Struggled a bit with injury early but his chasing was at its best then.

But here's the problem. He gets six grand a week to play football. That means if it's his turn he takes the hit. Should be docked for shirking. Would owe the club money.

One more thing- if he thinks he can take a hanger he's fearless. See, it's about the price for him--he'll take the risk if he can bathe in the glory. He's gotta lower his price.
 
HA! kane only pulled his finger out and played the way he is payed to as he knows he is on the cusp of being traded. id play my butt off 2 if my career was on the line!

One out of 22 doesnt make a decent year for me.

2 many let downs this year petts.

Only made it to one game this year Tam? Doesn't cut it for me maybe we should trade you off to scumwood for Joffa.
