Batchelor kicks the football better than Pettard

Better style perhaps. Prone to more errors.

I don't think I've seen Pettard actually hit a target.

Better stop watching from the bar then.

He is struggling
Not fit
Having a shave would be a good idea as well

I know I was struggling to get a kick so I shaved my balls and it just seemed to lift my spirits and sharpen my focus.
Getting the gooch waxed just topped me off so good suggestion  :thumbsup

;D


Would like to see Batch get another shot at some point. Find it interesting that they put him on the resting ruckman at times. Trying to cough up goals Damien or is there another reason behind it?? Play him as HB, let Chaplin take a tall. Still think he may have something to offer but he really hasn't come on since his first season. Is a better kick than Picky Rettard but so is my nan. And she's dead btw.

Agree coach. Batch was physically mature and ready to go from day dot, I think the focus should have been on him slimming down and working on his speed/agility rather than trying to tank him up further to play on talls. Has made him too slow for footy now.

btw I think he's a good penetrating kick, has no problem hitting 50 metre bullet passes -  just makes some really dumb decisions and unforced errors which stood out

Batch off to the VFL tribunal. He was reported in the last few mins of the Footscray game.

With the backward step we've taken this year in transitioning ball from defense, I'm surprised he hasn't come in for either Chaplin or grimes , both struggling big time and the root of our problems back their.

Batchelor is an excellent intercept mark and generally uses the ball with surgical precision, sounds like he owned the game at vfl last week with the ball on the end of a string and deserves a run. Right now we re poorer for not having him in the side
