Missed the game. Was he playing off the wing or half back?

Thought he was good

But highlighted our fitness issues. Ran out of gas in the last qtr

Thought he looked great.
“I find it nearly impossible to make those judgments, but he is certainly up there with the really important ones, he is certainly up there with the Francis Bourkes and the Royce Harts and the Kevin Bartlett and the Kevin Sheedys, there is no doubt about that,” Balme said.

Most bruise free game of the year and he thrived. Just throwing up a different perspective here. As usual the nuffies will not like it.

Loool that's because you want people to believe your narrative and don't see the player for what he is and his role.

Did you watch it? Honest question.

Shame we can't have 5 of each Cotchin, Voss, Archer etc.

Should be 26 hard nuts on every team.

I don't need anyone to believe anything i say. I say what i see and i try to not just follow the obvious. you can either like it or lump it or not even read it.
That has never changed with me.

So lets see here. go onto any site and the knock is he does not like contact and has not played well under pressure.
Some of it quite severe criticism.

Was just pointing out it was a bruise free tackle free no pressure game and in that context id be careful about how high id rate his game. They can all look great in those games its under pressure where there is plenty of pressure that we need him to improve.

Great he thrived in a bruise free game but context please.
