yep - most just want to see the bloke given a chance! and if at the end of it, he's not good enough, then so be it.

Yeah I agree Tony, it's pretty much this.
we've got a guy winning the goal kicking award twice yet we persist with this limp dick players who don't put in.

Get that just interested  in how long folks will give him

Some players get a few weeks, others are immune so seem to get forever, interested how long people will give him

Sorry my previous post was a bit  :sarcasm2

I give him 8 minutes into the first quarter to goal and get 2 goal assists or its the scrap heap for him!!!!!! But no pressure.

 :lol

For mine WP, I'll give him till the end of season, yes itll only be about 10 AFL games total in his career but hes been in the system long enough now, so we should be able to get a pretty good gauge of what we'll get with the beaner moving forward in the next 8 weeks.

I think McBean is a natural forward. He leads really well, knows where and when to lead and is a very nice set shot at goal.
I fear for him though playing in our forward-line set up, and the slow stagnant ball moving into our forward-line.
I hope with DH making some well overdue changes, he also frees up the boys to be more attacking.

Anyway good luck to him and I hope he makes the decision to not play him earlier a stupid one.

Is this Justin Plapp mark II?
I can't wait for this young fellow to play again, I can almost already here the cheers of excitement when he almost takes a mark or almost kicks a goal.   :rollin

How much can we expect from a kid that couldn't get a game in front of Sideshow or TheGirlGriff? Or is it because he's been cultivated by the Guru himself "Chocco" & the disciples of development?  :rollin

How much more will he improve with the most frustrating game plan any forward has ever seen?
Im glad he's finally got the opportunity but I'm not holding my breath. Most fail, it's an RFC tradition.

Maybe if he is fed up with this club & does leave us for better opportunities he can dominate the competition & stick it right up us just like all the other players that have left us that have had stellar careers elsewhere.  :rollin

Play him at full forward. Give him to rest of him. Lets hope the delivery to the forward line is quicker than it has been previously.

Good luck to Liam, against the Dogs it will be a real tough game for him as a 3rd up game.

I am not expecting too much but I am sure he will do better than Vickery.

I just hope he gets a decent go and agree that he has to play the season out so we know where he is at re AFL intensity.

In all honesty he probably needs the rest of this year and a fair crack next year as well but unsure if TPTB (The Powers That Be) will see it like that
