Still needs to work on his kicking, stop trying to do too much, and if there is one thing that i wish he would eradicate it's the over the head handballs. Looks great when it hits one of his teammates, problem is 80% of the time it goes to the opposition or gets paid a throw. Cut it out bro.

Edwards doesn't even average 20

20.7 > 19.3
Grigg > Edwards

Edwards Shane . Wins inside contested ball.

His hands are.magic and creative.

His speed and smarts is vital.

Grigg was the sub indicateing he is viewed behind stewards according to he coach.

I am surprised at the weight of opinion Shane is not best 22.

Given his handball ability, agility / elusiveness and the only real forward pocket in the team I think he is vital.

People have Issues  with his form not his ability. You seem to have trouble processing that.
I wanted him dropped last week because I thought he was out of form. He Was better on the weekend, as was Grigg, so if I were to drop anyone for Tuck it would be Biccy.

His form had dropped to the point where his name would have come up at selection committee for the first time in a long time. Better game yes and something to build on for next week but again a couple of howlers by foot. He should narrow down his kicking repertoire  to long field kicks only, let's face it his short passes are either inaccurate or get picked off. I thought one of his strengths this year was that he accepted his limitations as a player and concentrated on areas that he is good at-handballing, harassing, stealing the pill and zipping away like his sars is on fire. A couple of 2-3 goal games leading into the finals would be nice too.

Flying under the radar this year for all the wrong reasons....

Not in our worst but nearly always not in our top 12-15. 

Gee whiz bloke any chance of impacting a game for christs sake?
