Yes this is the Buddy Love thread.

Argue with me here -> Anyone else think that this guy is the best full forward in the last 10 years of the game ?

I am talking about Lynch, Treadrea, Lloyd, Lockett and co at their best. This guy is fitter, faster, longer and more accurate kick.

You think the Hawks would be stupid enough to trade Barry Hall for him

He' good and saved my Hawthorn wager this round, but he's nowhere near the legendary status of Barry Hall, and never will be, until he's throws a haymaker at some lazy veteran in the first five minutes of a game, preferably someone from Melbourne when they are trying to not lose 20 games in-a-row.  Then, he might have more respect.

I have nothing against Richo but the author of this article has been clearly hanging out with customs sniffer dogs.

"Undoubtedly, if he were on the market at the end of the season, his package - encompassing skill, excitement, membership and sponsorship - could command close to a $1 million a season."

5th String bench warmer in American football who doesn't play a down gets $300,000 a year.  Play in a few games, close to $600,000.

I am always amazed at the salaries in footy and am very glad that it hasn't become (yet) a dollars horse-race.

Hall will always be remembered.  I liked it when he would check women's purses at the end of the show and give them $50 if they had stuff like lipstick or a red pen in there, etc.  And when he always misled people into giving up the box for Curtain #2 and there was a goat back there, usually taking a massive dump on stage.  And then that horn would come in, "whaaaa whaaa whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa........."

That bloke will be remembered forever.

The first Hall tanty I remember is when Plugga made his comeback. Never forgive him for acting like a baby 
 
Hey we are talking about Buddy not Bazza.
 
Buddy is the real deal and if you watch him play he still looks so raw. Lots to learn and will outshine Carey and Lloyd in my opinion.
 
Jesus imagine if we bought origin back Buddy, J Brown and C Mooney playing together
