Pretty harsh on him myself but i think the criticism at the time was justified. Became a very good player and kudos to him.

Played just 10 games in 2020 and i thought time was up still felt the same last year.  at age 33 and injuries kicking in regularly probably his last season.

Have a real gut feel that he has gone one yr too many Pretty ordinary against Carlton and if there were not so many other poor performances would be in the gun to be dropped.

It's sad seeing how much a shadow of his champion self Sheds has become  :(. So far this year he's had 14, 17 and today just 13 disposals. Like a few of our vets, there's been a clear correlation between Sheds' output dropping away since the second half of last year (from R15 onwards) and us dropping away as a side.

Where is his playing. Surely is better suited to a Houli type role than on wing it forward.

Out of all the older players from the glory years, I really didn’t see the drop in form coming from edwards. 1 of the players who actually got better as he got older so I expected him to be able to play at a high level for another couple of seasons yet.

Not sure what’s the issue with him atm, if he’s injured then let him recover, if he’s not suited to his current role (I’m not actually sure what this is) then move him elsewhere - he’s shown in the past he can play well across all 3 lines. Or maybe it’s just that the cliff has come for him sooner than maybe any of us saw coming.

Last time Edwards played consistently good football was in Houli's role in 2020 while the latter was out injured... :shh
