Don't expect Big things from Dow if he takes the field. The Guy is a Gun at VFL but is just not good enough at AFL Level.


He has been tried so many times before and he failed miserably. Not a Single AFL Game he played had any sort of impact. Averaging 10-15 disposals for an inside Mid is Poor, plus he lacks Speed and is a Turnover king.


Unless of course he has finally matured and is ready to Crack it at the top Level ( Doubt it )



i thought one of the things dow brought with him was speed? run and breakaway speed, hence the whole paddy wow bit?

Can't remmember ever seeing him Run. He is good at dishing out handballs at Fast Speeds and he can find the footy but does nothing with it ( often Turn-overs)

I can just see it:
- Dow named as Sub
- One of our inside mids goes down half way through 2nd qtr
- We don’t use the sub.

I can never understand betting on your own team. If you get beaten you get pissed off twice over.

Is that you Vossy??



I wish Vossy would have the balls to just Say it as I have above, without the Sugar Coating he is been saying all year lol

Dow + Obrien in one team = Turnover Party. All invited LOL


I am going to ask my bookmaker if they can create a Bet on the Turn over numbers for those 2 players hahaha

This :lol:
You clearly haven't been watching us all year.
Acres is at 41 clangers already, nearly averaging 4 a game.
Only bloke ahead of him is Cripps with 43.

If that's you in your profile pic it needs updating, you look about 27 there so you've been on the door list at the Mahogany room since you were like, what, two years old?

Dow has not played a game this year. Last year he was marked down for 4 games. However, 3 of those games he was sub and 2 of those 3 games he never got onto the field.

So, you can't judge him on last year except for the fact that he won the B&F in the Reserves. This year he would clearly be leading the B&F for the Reserves.

We are losing badly. We need changes. He more than deserves an opportunity.

If he is indeed sub I hope he comes on and wins us the game.
