but helbig was a HFF as a junior 
was he thats news to me.
if your going to take cheap shots at least get the facts right.
from the above i take it you think helbig cant play in defense.
hard nosed accountable pacy mid whos good in contested situations with good disposal and vision. seems to me he has all the requirements to make a damn good defender with the added bonus of him being able to rotate thru the midfield. he started 10 kg below where he needed to be he now about right.
have often said we should not be drafting flankers in the hope of turning them into mids. but we should be drafting genuine mids and utilising their talents on the flanks.
i take it your having a shot over the mcintosh thread. get over it.they said we needed genuine mids and tried to tell us mcintosh was a mid. there is a pretty clear distinction between drafting a genuine mid and drafting a tall defender in the hope of turning him into a mid. most sensible people have no problem making that distinction. seems you cant or choose not to.
i have never said mcintosh will not or cannot become a mid but seriously questioned their thinking in taking him as one.. as it is i see mcintosh as a more accountable birchall type.he may even play kp.reckon ive said hes a decent pick where we took him and he certainly as a tall defender fills a need.
