Just on this. We are in a world of pain when so much is relied upon on a 33 yo with no kids coming thru to take over his role.
Atm we want to hope his body can hold out and failing that find some real help in a similar role for him.
I'm sure there was a kid named Tyler Sonsie in the midfield. Can't be right as you said we have no kids coming though. A few other debutants have shown signs this year also. Hardly "no kids"
Well well well mr literal. Just for you we have few mids coming thru, is that good enough for you.
in fact atm you would say Sonsie is the only one and he has a fair way to go to get anywhere near Cotchins level.
In fact does not look like a Cotchin type ATM !!!of course.
Cmon tell me what other young mid is there. Ross lol. RC-D FMD he cannot get a game no matter how he performs and my money is on being cut or most likely he asks for a trade for a proper opportunity. Dow sheesh he too cannot demand a regular game or show consistent afl attributes.
The simple truth is those young mids who should be stepping up, that is been around for a little while now are showing nothing or have been just ordinary.
Ya know we might help ourselves if we actually drafted mids rather than small fwds and backs or flankers.
