was at the ground and watched him closely....he actually worked hard defensively, probably more than he ever has, but just couldn't get his hands on it...was too deep, seem to play more as a fwd pocket (aka starvation corner) than half forward....got frustrated an unsure of hmsel when he realiseed he wasn't getting it enough and started to do the Tambling tapdance of uncertainty/witness waltz arund the edges of contests....main point is contrary to popular assumption he wasn't willfully bludging ....he also needs to ask for his money back from that sprint coach he hired...fast game on a fast ground did him no favours.....I'd like to see him put on ball when he's not getting it.....yes from an attacking point of view it just wasn't good enough but he should be persisted with.....blokes like BEllis, Hunt , Griffiths & Grigg should be dropped before he is...they've had more than enough chances...
