Love how we defend our players these days.. "well we have others who are even pooer"

IMO and in all honesty, anyone that see's S.Edwards as part of the RFC future or as a GF player is completely delusional...this is only MO though.

I would much rather put Banfield in the team (elevate him) and give him a crack. A 1 goal return from a crumbing forward is not acceptable and other than goals in junk time he has done nothing, he has done nothing for 8 stuffing years, nothing!!!!

He rates with the pathetic recruitment of Fiora, Pattison, Polo (much better), Myres, JON, Tambling, Roberts and the like.

Watch the work Edwards does off the ball at a game sometime from your flat in Perth or wherever you live in WA..
Oh yes that's right you only watch us on the TV blinkers boy. ::)
Football is not just about what you do when you have the ball.
Edwards is one of our hardest workers defensively. Yes he has flaws (who in our side doesn't) but is clearly in our best 22 and will be for some time yet whilst there are plenty worse.

I don't have a problem with Edwards per se. What I do have a problem with is how guys like him can have 4 bad games in a row and still get picked. While guys like Griff who needs development and confidence are often dropped after one bad one.

Rules for some and rules for others is one of the big problems I see Dimma facing currently.  The response from the playing group is there for all to see.

questioning how many games a person has seen is that all yopu have.

ive seen edwards heaps of times live and every time i see him its the same old same old.

simply put hes been a bum.

if hes not in the worst 6 or 8 at the club fine trade him he may have some value. one thing for sure the only possible thing that has kept him on our list is tthere have been worse players than him every yr.
the hack has rarely been up to standard over any sort of sustained period and he continues to make the exact same mistakes over and over. and over.its comical. this bloke has shown time and time again that what we see is what we get hes at his ceiling and it aint good enough.

how poor are we we refuse to cut poorly performed players after 8 yrs because theres supposedly worse players to cut.you cant see theres something wrong in that process. players like edwards are a disease and while we play the likes of him instead of trying to find better we will remain a basket case.

I've attended most of Richmond's Melbourne games and the odd interstate match throughout Shankwards career and he has been close to poo in the vast majority of them. Whether he's in possession, off the ball, in the middle, up forward, defending, attacking you name it.
