What a pathetic response.

Be careful Thompsoc, he may be a Richmond recruiter, no 'Real Pies Supporter' would tell a fellow Pies man to go to punt road otherwise.

Yes Wolfie Boy
Straight out of the Maxwell Smart book of put downs.
The Chief would have rolled his eyes.
Can't they be a little more creative with their put downs.

No but I have ticket stubs for 40 years and that allows me to dislike a player and prefer selection alternatives sycophant!

Yep barrack for the team not individuals. Like most fair minded supporters I give every player the chance who pulls on the Pies jumper (hello Lynden Dunn). Then evaluate them on their body of work to form an opinion. Bit like measuring an employee, a girlfriend who may be your wife and acquaintances who may become lifelong pals.

Pretty basic, one would think!
I love the Pies, hate Carlscum

So David
You had to go back to 2010
to pick me up on bagging another player.
I put him in the 3 amigoes post.
Said O'Bree and Lockyer and Johnson were finished.
I was right about the first 2 and wrong about Jono.
I was out by a year or 2 with jono.
This thread is about Blair.
I think I can comment on him in this thread.

Yes but you don't have to go that far back to hear you ragging on the coach and Hine and Ed and Blair......seems to be a pattern of behavior emerging that stretches quite the way back.

Who's next on your shit list that we get to hear about every day until we vomit?

Point is Thompsoc, (and i've been trying to get this through your head all season) no one thinks Blair is a champ, no one thinks he's a super star. Most understand he's fringe 22.

You're not seeing anything anyone else cant see. Others simply choose not to berate the bloke over his deficiencies week after week. Instead they chose to appreciate the effort he does put in and the fact that most weeks he's filled a role we really had no other options to fill.

This was due largely to player availability and player types, but not always. At times it was due purely to him having experience among a very young player group. This was pretty clear to most.

Gifted games?- i don't know. I don't know what he was asked to do, what his KPI's were and if he met them. But i do know there was little competition for his spot in an injury plagued and young group. 2017 will hopefully be different and the return? of Elliot, Fas, WHE, and Mayne should push him out......and to be fair to the club.... rightly so. But until then. Hats off to the bloke - premiership player is not something a lot of players can boast. You would expect at the least his own supporters would respect him for such- wouldn't you?

They used to be a happy team at hawthorn.

Well finally you got something right.
Blair is not afl standard
Bux is a dud
Ed has been there too long
Hine is only an average recruiter.
When these problems are addressed the club will move forward.
Address the issue and not the messenger.

Regardless, all issues will be addressed in 2017; either we crack the eight in September or something will give before then.
Line in the sand year coming up. And about time too.

What reason was there to think he'd be cut? :? Would have been one of the biggest surprises ever.
Because he is crud-tastic.
