Really was one to highlight Fev's great effort in that game, but it also showed a very youthful Murphy (among others) delivering beautiful lace out passes to Fev I50. Only highlights, but he did look like a very polished performer. I'm sure his years with us have done him no favours so we should always bear that in mind.
Great minds Cookie...that video popped up on Youtube for me and I had a look too and its good therapy for us beaten down supporters.
Never was a real fan of Ryan Houlihan but he hit Fev up with some great passes. Murphy was prominent but seemed to have unusually black hair.

Elwood. How could you not like Hoops. He looked like he had all the time in the world and at times had silky skills like very few. Sure he had bad games but footage of his best games are simply outstanding.

Questions :
Why aren't the young guys learning off Kreuzer, Simpson, Curnow, Cripps ? Why must they only learn off Murphy ? Does he have a monopoly on teaching ? So these other blokes just stand around doing nothing whilst Murphy "destroys" another generation of youngsters ? Where are the previous generations that he's destroyed ? Can anyone give me one single name ?
Answer :
Because it's a fantasy. A fantasy argument constructed by people who see a negative outcome, see a player they don't like, and join the two using the most simplistic cause and effect you can imagine.

His nickname on this site was "the blouse" from memory.

If we delisted him last year, he'd get a game at pretty much every club. Maybe as depth, or maybe in the exact sort of role we are advocating for him where he isnt at the coalface but irrespective he'd still be getting a game, and we would be lamenting his absence whilst we play Cameron polson, Jarrod garlett, lochie o brien, Alex fasolo, Darcy lang, and moaning about how inexperienced our side is
Or we could have spent that money and a bit more on two far more complete players, that work both ways and offer far greater support to the likes of Fisher, Dow, Walsh and SPS so we don’t end up with 4 more Mark Murphy’s in 3 years that have all the excuses under the sun about why they can’t tackle effectively.
So if Murphy as one of our leaders can’t provide such protection and support the cycle continues!!!
What other club and what other player has had these excuses?

All I know is if we lose we are on the bottom again. Crows will be pleased.

Perhaps we should have a Game of Thrones thread for Murphy fantasies ????

Mants..he had great skills but didnt go that hard for the footy and like Prof said earned the name " Blouse" on this site, think the Sheik aka the evil Lord might have
christened him that name and became a frustating player that polarized a lot of supporters.
