Now before you go off Spargo and im not trying to disrespect Drew as playing 300 games is a massive achievement and you need to be talented to do it, BUT if there is a worse player to play 300 games iv not seen it.
Any nominations of the top of the head that would compete for that title?

Full marks to both sides! Highest crowd at Etihad in 3 years!
Great win Kangas!


Lol. Two teams who use the ground as their home. First vs second. Friday night ( no long weekend where people go away ). Do you believe your own rubbish sometimes?

A bad 300 gamer? You clown.

Paul Williams, Luke Power, Shannon Grant, Marcus Ashcroft all behind the Petrie dish IMO.

I reckon all of them are in front of Petrie.
Cornes is toss of the coin i reckon but given he was essentially just a tagger ill give Petrie the nod there

IIRC the average AFL career is something like 70-80games. Anyone who can play 300 games must have had something to offer.

Definately no such thing as a bad 300 gamer, amazing achievement but Petrie would have to be the least decorated to reach the milestone I'd imagine

South have to face off against potentially the strongest raven's side possible, now owing to happenings in a completely different league next week the ravens will be significantly weakened.
Good for the sides chasing south and the ravens but hardly fair.
