How Slow Is Mcveigh!!!!

[Ruck'n'Roll]

Nonetheless, if he did squeeze one out onfield, could he penalised for fowl play?

[ScottH]

Insuffient roughage in his diet?

He eats like a sparrow.

[Ruck'n'Roll]

heh heh. On a related matter, Dwayne Russell said that Craig Bird "squeezed one out" at one stage during the Port game. Made my eyes water.

There was a US commentator a few years back that said the Patriots had to do something about the Packers Tight End. Would have that was an issue for the doctors but Grid ironing isn't my thing.

Spot on !
The best word would be "playmaker".
And while we're at it , let"s ditch DEE-fence and O-FFENSE.
It's "di (short "i") fence" and ATTACK.

Oh , hang on - you said "punters".Very witty , sorry I missed it !

[Bloody Hell]

Best small forward in the team. Shame he doesn't play up front....

[Swansinger]

OK, my pet peeve - there are NO quarterbacks in AUSTRALIAN rules. The sooner those Americanised commentators dump the term, the sooner we can let our midfielders get the ball to the punters in the forward zone.

I must admit I was always scathing of him in those early days....slow and soft.
But like a sore back, I've kinda got used to him.
Hope he has a blinder on the weekend.

[Dosser]

Was that an offensive or de-fensive line????

Aaaargh! My buttons!

From memory, I believe McVeigh has played forward and a little in the middle as well. But if you want to compare him to a offensive HB setting up scoring movements (avoiding the QB title, even though I don't mind it) Mal has 65, 17 CP at 81% with 9 tackles, which again is not the whole story, but at least suggests he is playing that role better than McVeigh. The latter has a couple more goals, and a few more CP. As I said, from memory, he as played around the ground a bit, so I think we can add versatility to McVeigh's tool-box.

McVeigh is playing a sort of quarterback role off the half backline in a similar way to Yarran, Deledio, and Jared Brennan .....

You can't mention quarterback without mentioning Bevo.

One of the all time funny threads when connolly christened him the champion little quarterback....lol
