200 games. Only 27 - potential 300 game player.

Career best form.

Brownlow sniff

Congratulations!!

How did he get to our draft pick. I suspect he has played more games than anyone from his draft class. Amazing. I remember Bucks at a Copeland night a few years ago saying he had a lot more he could deliver - and he has.

Well played.

Wonderful player, champion bloke. Listening to Pendlebury talking about him with Jay Clark this week brought that home very clearly.

That image of him streaming into our forward line in the third quarter of 2010 GF2, ten metres clear of any opponent, and getting on the end of a perfect pass from Pendlebury, then kicking that goal with a big sloppy grin on his face... what a champ.

I listened to that podcast too. I was struck by how Pendles said Sidey just loves footy, he loves playing it, if his body holds up he'll play til he's 50+ in bush footy once he retires from AFL
Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

That was the one. The guy just loves it.

Make an AFL version of the movie "The natural" and it's about Sidey.

4 on the left, 6 on the right.
From M. Gleeson, today:

'Before he was drafted Sidebottom kicked 10 goals in the 2008 TAC Cup grand final, reportedly five on each foot.

Asked about it he thought for a moment and worked back through them. "The first was on my right, second left, third left ... I reckon it was 6 and 4." He is not like that with every game, but it was a grand final.'

Correct, Mr. Sidebottom. :)

12 disposals and a goal. Just like that.
