Yeah saw that, jumped straight up bc he didn't want to go back with the flight, dermie also highlighted an incident with Houli where he pulled up real quick, also saw grigg pull out of the way when Brown took his final makr on the boundary, should have spoiled.
We will go nowhere while this type of play is allowed. Its the same players doing it week in week out and yet they never get dropped for it, then we wonder why we cant top the rot when opposition sides get a run on - answers right there dimma, some blokes don't want it bad enough - simple as that
Spot on TM.
Look he is young, along with Conca, I can be patient. He has upside that he can find the ball and is an elite runner. With interchange becoming a hot topic with caps, elite runner will be worth their weight very soon. Just needs to grow up a bit and maybe take a hit or two to win a game and realise the power of it. However Luke McDonald in his first game this year went back with the flight and nearly killed himself. I'm not really one for giving age as an excuse, you either have courage or you don't, very hard thing to train. As good as Joel Bowden was, he wasn't someone who loved contact and finished his career quite revered.
Spot on about Grigg and Houli being the major culprits in their late 20's, doesn't help when guys like Ellis see these two shirk contests. Its one of the many small issues we need to fix up.
