Matthew Boyd - 265 Games*

[bulldogtragic]

Just spit balling this as a few posters think Murphy will gracefully retire. I'm not in that camp. But if Bob hangs them up I imagine that gives Matthew Boyd another year potentially. He's currently on 265 games. There's 37 home and away games, plus finals also to the end of 2017. You see where I'm going....

He's game tally has really snuck up on me, but with another season he's a sneaky chance. But has he got another near full season in him, irrespective of what Bob decides?

You truly do tempt fate BT

Please dont......:(

Cmon, I didn't actually say anything... I think Dean Cox holds the elevated rookie games played at 290. But I'm not saying it.

Does it really matter? I guess it's easy for me to say numerical milestones don't really matter when the ts not me looking at being a chance of joining the 300 club. Especially when I'd been told so often I wouldn't play one before I finally got onto a list.

Jeez BT, it's almost like you're at the wheel of the bus lining him up...

One amazing captain has his career ruined by my hand and we all forget I landed Tom Boyd. No love here, here, there's no love. :)

If this is a real thing, that I'm an Internet voodoo doll, I'm happy to take requests to start threads (Bulldogs or others). Adcock??

BT was the one who got Johno! Where was he November 22, 1963? Did he have grass stains on his pants?

This is a decision to be made at the end of the 2016 season.

Johno was just too easy, he had his back turned to me which made it easy as. Haha!

I had nothing to do with Jack getting shot though, I'm far too young. But my dad Clay Bertrand and uncle Guy Bannister might have. But I've already said too much.

Do you think his first 7 games are staying at last year's level or is age catching up with him?

Forgot about this thread. I think I'm Robert Durst, The Jinx. Sorry for costing you a week Matty. In the future can moderators please immediately delete any positive thread about players reaching milestones.

265 games isn't a milestone.

Although the Robert Murphy 211 game thread was a beauty.

Instead of jinxing our players BT, please use your powers for good instead of evil and and focus on the players we need to pick up next season.;)

Wood, Roughead close to 100. Minson stuck on 189.

190 seems about as likely as 200 for Minson right now.

Matthew Boyd will* play his 290th game this week, equaling Dean Cox for the most games played by a rookie listed player.

* If selected.

I suppose that's not a bad return on investment for the club having that record*. :D

Makes you wonder how we missed out on Cox and Sandilands given that we seem to have every other player who was ever on a rookie list

Then take into account players who were former rookies at their clubs before we acquired them - Biggs, Crameri and Suckling

Because they're tall and our recruiter back then was allergic to anyone over 190cms.
