Lloydy gave him votes on the Sunday footy show

Seems he also just looks at possession to decide his votes

No wonder Lloyd's book is shit. Off the footy field, the man is a himbo.

He's up for the coaches award for this week.

1. :roll:

2. Should it really be called the coaches award if any clown can vote for it?

The bloke is junk - slow, soft, mediocre disposal. Will be getting a badge of him within the next few weeks.

The way he went down after Hunt's legal bump defied his promise from last year to stop diving after the Jordan Lewis incident. I can sympathise to an extent - if he stopped milking free kicks he'd be good at absolutely nothing.

Jimmy, I have always credited you with being incredibly objective in your thoughts and posts but the implication that Monfries overreacted when Hunt hit him is just wrong.

That was a beautiful hit by Hunt and would have sat any player in the AFL on their butt.

Fair enough now that i've seen the replay. I was at the game, standing behind the goals we were kicking to in the last quarter - from there it looked like he went down holding his face whereas the bump got him in the chest. A lot of Essendon muppets around me were calling for Hunt to be reported and a free kick, i told them it was a perfectly legitimate bump. He actually didn't hold his face so that is pleasing.

I still think he's soft and slow with mediocre disposal, though.

He isn't soft... He may act for free kicks a lot but that is getting better and he puts his body on the line when ever his turn comes up

He is just an average player

Faggots like Luke Darcy saying it was low impact, ha, he wouldn't have got up. Was a fair dinkum rugby league shoulder charge. Anyone saying Angus did anything that qualified as being soft or acting, is a farken idiot.

Unlike Reimers, I have never seen Gus pull out of a contest.

He may be average, but he is not soft.
Too far for Baker now he's on to it, now he’s got it, OPEN GOAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The Dons are in front by one point at the 8 minute mark
