Like for like comparison.....
Bower's season turning 22 vs Willos season turning 22.

Bower has it all over him.....except Clangers in which Willo has more.

Just saying.....

78.2% Disposal Efficiency % 84.5%
Bower is the right......and HE was the one who kept turning it over?

I rest my case....comedy Gold...

Proves nothing.

I reckon i've seen Cripps do that too.

Again, people have some short memories and are letting hindsight cloud their judgement.

FWIW, Paul Bower finished 7th in the B+F in 2009.
Sure, we were a crap side......but 8th was Kade Simpson.....who actually played 2 more games than Bower.

Nope don't have a short memory. My memories of Paul Bower remain etched in my psyche. Are they memories or nightmares?
He was a dud from very early on in my mind. Pretty sure I started calling him a donkey after a season. I don't get the same vibe with Willo. In fact I just finished watching the replay and I think he played quite well in the end. Probably stuffed up twice but on a number of occasions he was super. Let's not forget he's come back from a fair amount of time off as well. I think he needs to get through this year, then a full pre-season and decide by the end of 2021 if he is Bower-esk.

I watch this, and i see Willo.
The eagerness to run, the unknown in front of him some good stuff, some bad stuff.

The mixed bag that was Paul Bower.

FYI, that was the only Bower video i could find.

This was the only reall Willo video.

Same. same.

I'm sure if Cripps did something as stupid as that it would have been highlighted and on Youtube too...that is classic Bower asleep at the wheel.
Plowman had more votes than Weitering in the B &F last season but I know who I would be picking 1st in my best lineup..B&F's can be very charitable to some players for encouragement so I take them with a grain of salt.
Dont think Bower managed a brownlow vote did he in those 70 comedic games...?
re: those videos...I know who is the better kick.....Williamson too easy...

Seems a bit ugly to be talking trash about a player from years ago now...

I think Willo has the skills and is adapting to the pace, trying to find confidence and sustained form. I don’t see him panicking when he gets the ball, to me it seems he’s looking for the best option. I rate him.

We've had some weird results. The one pt loss to Melbourne coming from 42 behind, 2pts win at Geelong after being 42pts in front, won a game by a pt against Essendon that was saved by a falcon, lost with a kick after the siren to Port, then won with a kick after the siren against Freo in really weird circumstances.

So you ignore his B+F and try and get the umpires to prove how good/bad he is?
You've just lost the argument.

If it wasn't Cripps, it was someone equally high up on the chain.
If you want to try and search through videos with 'cripps' in the title to find the 5 second clip....be my guest.
