Seems like Newman will play out the year and be retired at years end.
McDonough should take his place.
I stick to playing Lennon for Grigg, Grigg offers nothing and doesn't "do a job" on anyone!
Lennon is a talent and a "Big Game" v Adelaide he should be given the chance to entertain and cause problems up forward!
Grigg is shot, time to be traded or delisted.
We need skillful players that hit targets over 30-40 metres! Not players like Grigg who hit targets only over 15-20 metres!
What should happen:
IN: Jackson, Lennon, McDonough
OUT: Thomas, Grigg, Newman
McBean needs to crush packs and take more contested marks.
Still a bit weak in the air. The cub can play, but he needs shoulders on him. Talented on the ground and great skill.
If McBean plays now, he wouldn't do much, defenders will monster him. Our development is poor, those who have watched McBean know he needs more meat on him and needs to take those contested marks.
Like McBean and last nights 5 goals, some were opportunist goals. We want more contested marking, hard leading goals.
This pre-season McBean needs strength in his shoulders and core, once he gets that, we will see him in the AFL.
Elton playing at CHB has been OK.
How long is Astbury out for?
