Arnot please.
Need some mongrel and toughness.
i dont get it. hes done nothing nothing at all. ffs we delisted him then felt sorry and rookied him. matt thomas actually deserves to be promoted.imo the last two yrs he did more than enough to go on the list proper. the difference in performance between the two really is the length of the flemington straight.
Watched him last weekend. There are things about him I like.
Are you suggesting the coaches have done a stellar job managing him the last few years?
Things I noticed:
- goes hard at the ball
- brutal tackling
- runs at the man with the ball, not defensively where he thinks the player will run
- great disposal
- clearly in the better players in the vfl team, along with Astbury, Knights and even Foley
These are things I like and want to see in the side instead of blokes like Newman.
On the other hand claw, who would you elevate instead?
