all well and good claw.
you reckon you could redo your essay only including blokes who were actually on the list when i posted that comment?
don't forget that nahas and edwards were playing alongside each other, as was king when fit
apologies i didnt look at the date.
anyway look how well the forward line went with them. no wonder we targeted knights and edwards something has to change in the forward half.
what i dont get is most of us can see and acknowledge that we desperately need to find and play a second ruckman to help big ivan.
most say that person is vickery but name him at chf i really dont get it. in fed up with the roundabout that is our tall forwards. we need a chf to play with jack and we need a ruck/forward who can give ivan a decent chop out. one bloke cannot be expected to do both roles im sick of structure going out the window every time ivan needs a break.
as for sml forwards well imo theres room for just one especially if your sml forwards are poor in the midfield and you lose too much in rotations. there is no way in hell we can afford to play nahas king and edwards and any or none of them not making a reasonable midfield contribution.
our structure and player type is deplorable in the forward half its certainly not a set up that will win tough high pressure games of footy. its been a set up that places inordinate amounts of pressure on our limited supply of genuine mids to play well every week.
as i have said as far as forward line set up and type goes nahas is in a fight with only king and edwards for a spot in the 22. we cannot afford to play 2 of the 3 take your pick which one you prefer.
robbir e nahas is not in a fight with a edwards for a spot they are entirely different players. hes not in a fight with knights hopefully knights can also spend significant time as a mid without the side losing too much.
we finished 12th we finished 12th for damn good reasons. doing something about why we finished 12th means limited players like nahas king and edwards will have to miss out.
