Cornes Into Hall Of Fame?

[valleys07]

How could people not think Crawf and Arch should be in the HOF
Crawford 4 time all Australian, brownlow medalist, premiership player, 300 gamer, MVP winner

Archer shinboner of the century, 3 times all Australian, 2 times premiership player, norm smith medalist, and second most games for North melbourne

I am not a north or hawks supporter. But for me they both deserve it

x2

Also agree with the accolade going to the other inductees, all worthy recipients of the honour IMO.

Thanks LL[/quote]
yeah, threatened to smack the crap out of the selection panel with his elbows like he did to all around him during his playing days

Well done cornes. Well deserved

Glen Archer??? No!! Seriously??? Come on this is thing is losing all its meaning.

The precedent was already set with Bickley and Dean Kemp.

I personally would find Archer borderline to be inducted, but going by those other inductees he's probably worthy.

True. I'd forgeotten about Bickley and Kemp. What a couple of shocking decisions there.

Surely you jest about Archer, not sure what more he could have achieved in the game. Also voted the most courageous player by his peers 6 times.

Rapt for Robert Harvey, one of my favourite non-Roo players, was untouchable in his Brownlow years.

couldnt have said better myself.

archer was the most feared defender in his time.those fearce punches from behind were awesome and his opponant knew they were coming regardless. harvey was amazing, and the best midfield player in the league for year apon year.

No problem with Archer getting a gig.

Harvey I would rank as one of the best I've seen.

How many B & F's did Archer win?

[goraw]

None that Im aware of, had some fair competition in the 90's. Like many I dont rate B&F's.

[Dirko]

Either do the AFL Hall of Fame

BTW, I like Archer and don't mind his inclusion.

[goraw]

cornes, yep he is an icon of SA footy. have no problem with his inclusion.

[JK]

When people present these players credentials, personally I wish they would leave out "x times premiership player" as I fail to see how that is an individual achievement.

chris grant nup no way. above average footy player, but hang on, i rated him just above matty robran.even though he played 300+ games, i dont think its warranted.

Grant was more than average, one of the best in the comp during his time and would have more talent in his big toe than most of the forwards today. If he had played for a bigger club he would be remembered as a superstar.

[goraw]

just saw the inductee of glenn archer. and he is still the same. very unasuming, embarrassed, and thats the soft side ive never seen of him. amazing that when he saw that white line, he was so switched on and one of the hardest men this games ever produced, if not the hardest!

Agreed, he's pretty much up there with all the other inductees from last night.
