Another Dimma has got wrong this year.
Last year he was that lockdown stopper of the oppositions best forward. And barely beaten in two years.
Dimma in his wisdom has tried to make him more attacking and it has stuffed with his head.
At the end of the day he isn't a great kick as it is, so the fewer times he has it the better as long as his opponent isn't getting it.
It's one thing to be more attacking and I'm all for it but if it hinders the guys best asset, well it's simply not worth it.
We have other blokes who's job it is to hit a target coming out of the backline. 
Get him back to basics and what made him a great player the two previous years.

We also desperately need a genuine tagger in the midfield. And that's not Jackson in any sense of the word.
Could Helbig be turned into it? Has he got the selflessness to do it? IMO it's his only hope of staying on the list..

I agree with you bt.  Helbig would be an ideal tagger as he is tough and uncompromising. The only question is, does he have the concentration to follow his opponent closely all the time?  If Lyon could make a hack like Clinton Jones into a tagger, why can't we make Helbig one?

Jones is 10x the player Helbig will ever be.
Oh and Morris was attacking in his first year and that was his best year IMO because he shut them down as well. Dimma wanted him to go back to that and rightfully so, Morris just hasn't done it right

Clinton Jones is Chris Judd compared to Helbig.

Have to agree, Clinton Jones has been a very good player for the saints.

Not sure of the stats but Morris wasn't attacking in his first year. Or second for that matter. He just did that job on the best small forwards.
Can anyone get the stats on his first couple of years?

Credit where it's due. We needed to keep Betts fairly quiet tonight and Morro did the job.

There's wasn't a moment when Eddie was close to the ball I thought he'd kick a goal but Morris was super, Infact all the backline boys did an outstanding job tonight.
