i keep asking why do we incessantly bring in small players even when mediums and talls go out. we dont play very many of either to start with.
Glad for Egg to get a game by all reports he has had a great yr to date. But fmd he is coming in for a real big bodied medium in Caddy making the team even shorter and smaller than it already is.
The trouble really is a lack of decent mediums on the list. The only medium sized options we have atm who could come in are Markov and Menadue two real big failures to date, who arent exactly big bodied and just havent made the step up in 5 yrs.Then theres Townsend a five game wonder at the level.
The only other option atm is RC-D and going by reports he just hasnt done enough in the two's to force his way in.
Everyone has this game pencilled in but imo GCS are structurally at least the exact sort of team that troubles us. They have two blokes at 200cm as fwds and a 209cm ruckman.
They structure up
8 talls
8mediums
6 smalls
we structure up
6 talls including third tall types Grimes,Broad
4 Mediums
12 smalls.
Im all for playing a small player who may give us something over a bigger player who is likely to give little. But we jst dont have any option but bring in smaller players the list really needs to be balanced out.
This week it will be run and stun or bust. there will be no changing it up if things go badly because there is no other option but play that way.
