Nice fella Frankie. Had a good chat to him at a Black Keys gig about 5-6 years ago. He's knows his music.

Hopefully there's a future Saint or two among those five boys.

very underrated in the latter part of his career

not many people realise how great a loss he was in the 2005 pre-lim

IMO given the form he was in... every bit a big a loss as Kosi and Hamil

A good, interesting Post. Thanks.

Clearly, he was a very underated player and one of the early "attacking" back pocket players.

Didn't bother reading article but I remember Frankie in his peak, from a behind he would kick the ball to himself and take on the man on the mark and would always get around him.

So in that prelim team we had out Frankie, Hamill, Kosi and Penny against the Swans who basically had no injuries and a full team? We really didn't have a hope did we?

He should go around again for next year. He is still playing good footy with ex Port player Brendan Lade at Karingal.

Wasn't Leigh Fisher the good Fish back then?!

I bought a shirt from Target once.
It had a hard tag on it too.

I know how Dal feels.

Bigger loss than Koz or Hamill, you have to be kidding me. Frankie was alway a GOP. Great guy, club man etc, but not up with the elite by a long shot.

I think it was in reference to his value on that particular night.

Not as a player overall.

I don't think anyone said he was elite, but we could do with a few more players who can kick both sides in the team at the moment, or for that matter, who can kick well on the preferred.

In the semi against Adelaide in 2005, he got 19 possessions and took 8 marks and was one of the best. He would not have let Ryan O'Keefe have a birthday on the forward line, and he won the game for the Swans.

As I have said so many times, give me a team of players who can kick the ball to each other on both sides and I'll show you a premiership side. You don't need stars everywhere who can win the ball, just a few who give it to teammates who deliver to another teammate. The turnover will kill the most star studded team.
Wasn't Leigh Fisher the good Fish back then?!
Alas, his hammy had gone by then (Round 9, 2004). If you saw him play his first 9 games, you would know what a loss he was. Lost pace after the ops and that was that. Sam, in his first year, was already an excellent player, also having a beauty against Adelaide, who until that stage, looked certain to play off.

not quite. Sammy Fisher had a very good Qualifying final against the Crows but played with a broken foot which finally gave way.

Peckett was excellent. He was Mr Consistency, particularly in the Waverley days. I spoke to him at the Big Day Out once and he told me about making that video clip with TISM.

Playing in the granny for my local club this weekend!
Missed a few with a calf but trained the house down this week to prove his fitness.
Will be an absolute corner of a game! If big ladey can kick his usual 6-8 we should get home and have the party of a lifetime back at the bullpit!!

The stonecats have been the best side all year.
It wasnt our day today.
Turning point was when big ladey lined up for an absolute soda and missed. ( would of put us down by 5 just before half time) they then took 3 kicks from the kick in to kick a goal, got the next clearance and goal and then the first goal after half time and never looked back.

As for old Franky, 80% that he just played his last game and looked very sore and proppy on his calf.
