McIntosh is better down back.
Going to disagree there. Not a fan of McIntosh down back, gets beaten too often, can't tackle and goes missing. On the other hand, he seems to be the only one who can hit a decent target in the F50 as he runs down the wing. Think Markov makes a better backman than McIntosh but saying that I think Markov too could play on the wing
I would have agreed with that last year but this year he has improved dramatically when it comes to defending especially in the air. And his tackling has improved also.
I think he has just realised he can break tackles now too which has given him heaps more confidence when he gets the footy. He doesn't panic anymore and I don't cringe now when he has the footy.
He is the perfect size player to play down back because he can play on smalls and talls now.
Really important player going forward imo along with Vlastuin.
A backline of Rance, Grimes, Vlastuin and McIntosh is pretty decent going forward.
