AFL If Buddy kicked his 100th Goal last week?

Question

Seeing as how Hawthorn have got either 2nd or 3rd in the bag.

If Buddy had of kicked his 100th goal last week, do you think he'd be playing this week ?

I would have loved to see him kick it last week and rest him this week. I follow Hawthorn and would prefer to see him start on the wing this weekend and force players to kick to our other forwards.

look forward to your replies

Answer 1

Of Course he would be playing, Hawthorn are trying to find form for the Finals and not playing their Key Man would be stupid. Also they will be trying to win to get a home final.  

Answer 2

Nah they wouldnt have rested him this week - he would still be playing yet they wouldnt be getting him in the action as much as usual because the hawks want to avoid injury.

Answer 3

hmm i dont no if they wood have rested him, probably actually

but i am glad he didnt, it wood be pretty cool to see  2guys get their hundredth in one match, like what might happen tonight

but can i just say, i saw some1 answer saying summin like "i didnt no u had any otehr players"

arghh, stuff like that really annoys me! how people are always saying hawks are a one man band and stuff

arghhh!!! they sed that when mark williams was at his peak 4 us! that we woodnt win a match without him! then he got injured,,, we dealt with it, and got some1 to "replace" him'

and honestly, buddy isnt as good as i think he is seen 2 b. i mean, sometimes his accuracy is wayy off. and he gets like 5 goals 6 or wateva (like, hes still the bomb tho)

yet people stilllllllll say he is the only reason we win

ARGHHH!

sorry 2 ramble on, it jsut annoys me

go hawks :):):)

Answer 4

No. Would give him a rest before finals. They wouldn't need to worry about the position on the ladder any more.

Answer 5

well i love hawks too and buddy will definitely get it this week against carlton he'll get like 4.12

Answer 6

Sorry, I thort You Were The "Buddy Franklin Hawks"

Didnt know anyone played for you.

Answer 7

no he was destined not to kick it last week lol..they played west coast and glassy played on him as well as 2 youngsters....lol atleast we won in that department =)

Answer 8

No.

I don't think he should have been rested had he reached 100 goals last week.

He is only a young player & it would probably have affected his performance, the following week, in an adverse manner rather than doing him good.

It's not as though he is in Shane Crawford's boots. He has been rested for this weeks game.

Answer 9

They would have still played him this week. It is better for players to have momentum leading into the finals, and a rest may have been a bad option for Buddy.

Answer 10

I didn't know you had other forwards. Is that Dunstall guy still playing?

Answer 11

98

Answer 12

They would still play Buddy even if he got his 100th goal last week, unless he was injured.

Answer 13

i believe he could of easily got the ton last week against West Coast Eagles but i think he didnt really want to and ill explain why in a moment.

At one stage of the match i think it may of been jordan lewis that kicked it in to him and he was on 98 and Buddy could of easily kicked it but handballed it straight back to Lewis???

some people may think itz weird but i dont and the reason he didnt want to kick the ton last week was because he would rather kick it in Melbourne where there will be alot more hawks supporters. He would love the fact that it will be a sell out and where all the supporters can run on the ground and make that ton so much more special instead of kicking it interstate.

There is no need to rest a key player like buddy.

I really hope he kicks and because his had a great season and hope the hawks go well in the finals.

good luck :)

Answer 14

Even if he had reached the ton last week, unless he was injured, I would seriously doubt, and be a tad disappointed, if they rested him.

Answer 15

no i doubt they would of rested him coz they probably would of liked to keep his match fitness up and if he did kick is 100 last week and rested this week he could get cocky and play a poor game in the first final.
