Why play Duncan Kellaway?
« on: June 07, 2004, 03:49:58 PM »
Danny boy has already told us that Duncs is most likely to pull on the boots this weekend. This is a disgraceful decision and doesnt give any of the other players the confidence that they will be selected on merit.

Sure if Duncs had been playing for the burgers and been in the best atleast 2-3 games in a row then fine, bring him in. But he has been lucky to play 2-3 games at Coburg and now he is going to get a run. We are better off have players such as Hyde and Fleming run with a midfielder than Duncs. We need to look to the future and this decision has underlined why Frawley is a dud coach. You have to feel for people like Morrison and especially Tuck who has been going well and he cant buy a game when we have duds like Hilton running around in the ones.

I cant wait until he is gone. (Hilton and Frawley)

Its time dunc released a press conference and told everyone this will be his last game, much like Jason "im an overated footy player" McCartney did against us last year.
There's no I in team, but there is 5 i's in Individual Brilliance.

Hey Bulluss, I will come up with a real logical answer here, certain members of PRE have threaten the RFC to not support the club anymore if they cant see Duncan again. As the RFC would do, they have bowed to the emense pressure from PRE and promoted him back to the seniors.
In a media release that will be released on Thursday, the RFC have advised all supporters who attend the game NOT to wear soft caps but to come well prepared wearing a HARD HAT in the remote chance that Duncan Kellaway does get a kick. The RFC accept no liabilty for any injury received by stray Duncan Kellaway kicks.
BUilders of the new grandstand Grocon are believed to be happy about the decsion to play Duncan as if he does get a kick, there is a distinct possibilty that there could be further demolition of the Olympic stand at no cost to Grocon ;)

froflmao star.

There better be a press conference on thursday to justify this decision.

Bumfield shouldn't be given a go either until he proves he is good enough.

Just wait for next week's inclusions, Houlihan and Rogers.

At the risk of playing devils advocate,ld be absolutely spewing if no one was dropped after that meek capitulation last week.I would like to see tuck given a go,and even see young Foley from the rookie list given a crack too.
I find it hard to slag off DK as ridiculous as it is him still being on the list is, he had guts and played his heart out for the club in a time where hard nuts at RFC are as common as chicken teeth.
At least he'd show some balls and set an example that some of the soft overpaid imposters we have could take a leaf from.

On SEN this morning Spud said that both Kellaway and Blumfield would most likely get a call up because we needed big bodies in the team.

Last time I checked neither of these 2 have big bodies.  Blumfield's main weakness is his strength and physical hardness - always has been.  Kellaway is really struggling and cannot assert the type of hardness he used to.

What is Spud on ??

Is he really this stupid or is it just an act ??
Does anyone have half an idea on anything?

If we're playing guessing games are we gonna see Dunc retire allowing Foley to be promoted?

If so l will cheer him off the ground,and the right decision will have been made.
I'd be disappointed if people didn't send him off the right way,l'll remember the guts he showed in a contest rather than a crippled liability on a crap list.

Lets hope its Tuck,or even a promotion for Axel Foley.
Promoting Dragga again would be a backward step IMO.

If it's not Tuck then I can't see who it can be.

We can't promote Foley (don't think so anyway) and Gilmour and Raines are not ready IMO.

We could promote Foley is they moved Archibald to the long term injury list - he aint gonna play this year or anytime soon

As for Raines and Gilmour - they couldn't do any worse than the likes of Chaffey (aka TGT) or Hilton.

I just want them to play the kids ;)
