Captain Cotchin

Sounds like a minor operation. Chimp looked positive.

We have some top veterinarians working in Melbourne. He'll be fine.

He just tweeted this photo from the Melbourne Veterinary Specialist Centre.

Black is a champion isnt he.

Fully deserves to sit alongside Hird, Buckley, Voss etc as the real greats of their generation.

Is he a better player than Williams, Bryan? It feels that way.

Is Simon Black better than Greg Williams? Not in my book. A champion and one of the best of his time yes, but Diesel reigned supreme in his.

The happy thing is in 10-12 years we'll be discussing where Chimp and Bull sit amongst that lot.
 
Wayne I like that picture almost as much as you are the only person on PRE to have a moving avatar. If Dusty wants to blink, he will blink.

Cant go past Black for mine. Very underated because he played in Brisbane, even with the 3 grannies and brownlow. Black's kicking is among the best ever in the AFL.
 
Ch 10 news showed Chimp at his home(?). Could've shown a bit more at the Crown though.

He said he's proud Dusty didn't sign with GWS and is excited to build Richmond together as young players.

Definitely wants the captaincy........... it's just a matter of time.
 
Did the tour of the new facilities with the Cotch the other week, spoke like a captain then and spoke like a captain when accepting his JD medal the other night. Born to lead.

All ahead of him are seasoned players, bar Pendlebury who is still more than two years older. The Age of the Chimp is dawning.

That's a more credible winner than than Brownlow. I thought Murphy was the best player I saw this year.

Interesting its still a midfielders medal even with the coaches
 
It's also interesting to see how highly the coaches rated Judd considering all the comments here that he was the umpires darling.

Indeed. All signs put to the Chimp being amongst the true elite within a season or two.

What odds can you get for the 2012 B’Low?
