Our forward line could do with the quietness of the Kirbinator.
Today he kicked...3
Goals per game
Last year: 5,4 - 9
This year: 0,3,1,3,3,6,2,3,2,4,1,2,3,5,1,3 - 42
That's 51 goals in 17 games. In the TAC he kicked 32 in 13. So goals, it's just what he does. And if anyone can pop up like a Jeffy Garlett or Brad Dick and snag a bunch of 5 as an unknown, then its this kid. His pressure is pretty good too. _________________ Get back on top.

Cam, when I watch the VFL highlites on CFC website, he looks slow; but so does the whole game for that matter.
I think some of those horses, Buckley picked last thursday night, for courses, are still out there running... _________________ M I L L A N E 4 2 forever |

I am completely flabbergasted why he isn't getting a game. We have been crying out for such a player for 5 years now.
I can only think that he has done something wrong off the park that hasn't made it into the media. |

I'm looking forward to the day he debuts, as we do lack a competent small forward at the moment.
He looks like a natural goal kicker based on those stats. _________________ | 1902 | 1903 | 1910 | 1917 | 1919 | 1927 | 1928 | 1929 | 1930 | 1935 | 1936 | 1953 | 1958 | 1990 | 2010 | 2023 | |

From what I can gather, I think his weight and/or stamina are the issue according to those who are closely monitoring his progress. _________________ | 1902 | 1903 | 1910 | 1917 | 1919 | 1927 | 1928 | 1929 | 1930 | 1935 | 1936 | 1953 | 1958 | 1990 | 2010 | 2023 | |

Perhaps they're holding him back to help the new coach get a kick along when he takes over? |

I see Cox kicked another bag whilst our forward line fails to threaten anyone |

Yes Cox kicked 6 today but interested to know when was Coxs other bag that you refer to? _________________ People forget that our last premiership was only 2010 and rebuilds take some time. 2018 we play finals again. |

He also leads the stats for F50 effective tackles.
He is showing all the correct signs. We should pull the trigger on him very soon. What have we got to lose. _________________ Human behavioural studies suggest people who use a lot of swear words tend to be more honest & trustworthy. |

Correct weight Cam. Not only is he our leading goal kicker (across all our AFL and VFL players), but he is our number one for tackles inside our forward 50 as well. As someone else suggested, maybe he keeps failing to submit his homework on time, as that can be the only reason for not playing this goal kicking machine. |

Well Brad Dick would never have played under the current selectors because he would have been too thin.
Medhurst would have been in the Mayne role.
Clement would have played in the 2s for a year then been delisted because he wouldn't have kicked enough goals.
We take a risk on the Slim Shady but leave Lynden the animal Dunn chained up until injury gets him in.
We give an extended Vmax run to the Ram, even though he looks a patch on what he was, leaving our Gold Class movie the Titanic, starring the Iceberg, languishing in the Metro at Boronia.
The Kirbinator...
Here is a picture of him at training trying to meet his kpi to get into the seniors.
Yeah some of this is unfair, but I woke up grumpy and I'm angry we have lost our last two games. The Sandman had me excited and now he's just a dream. _________________ Get back on top. |
