This whole Brock argument reminds me of the position some one eyed Wiggins fanatics took in Wigglers last couple of years...all based on his toughness and hope he will do this and that, when his pace and skill really lagged behind the level required in the AFL at the time, but he was the best we had available for the tough stuff because that became the only KPI he had to fulfill...but picking him for toughness came at a cost in other departments. In his final year the fans continued to support Wiggler, but they knew his time was up, to the point he was on their list of possible candidates ripe for delisting when we got to the business end of the year.
Overrated imo.
Oh FFS. Why take an opportunity to pot a club legend like Wiggins, just so you can voice your opinion on the internet?
The discussion had nothing to do with Wiggins, but god forbid you don't get to
loudmouth your opinion to those who still listen to it?
Disgraceful. It's posts like this on here that show people are
more concerned with barracking for themselves and their own opinions, than the club and the boys itself.
PS: Whatever happened to the idea that McLean's output would be reflected in the increase in Murphy and Judd's performances?
I really don't mean to offend, and was hoping I didn't, but as it seems I have.
I'm pointing out the similarities in sentiment and feelings of hope some had that Wiggins would star, and that much of the support for Brock may also be based on hope and not form. No need to worry if he doesn't come through, and what's done is done. That's all I'm saying.
Sorry to offend, but please tone it down Rhino, you seem to be making this personal (it's not the first time you've taken my posts out of context and got personal, it's the 2nd in a row...highlighted. In the last post you had a go me you didn't realise my post was tongue in cheek...and I pointed this out as did others, and I did notice you didn't respond). Ease up. Tell me I'm wrong and I'm happy with that. Tell me why and I'll be happier.
Now the point you make in the form of a question is a good one...now join in and give us your answer and opinion. I value that not the aggressive Rhino. We're all on the same side. I like your spirit and I like the fact your on our side and not an opponent, and I'd like to keep it that way.
I've already commented as have others on whether Brock has given Juddy and Murphs the chop out. You may have missed that. Jimmae makes the point that he has helped. I don't know the answer to that, but I do have an opinion, just as you and others too. We'd all like the answer and through disussion we may just get a clearer picture. I'm none the wiser atm. What do you think?
I see Brock as a depth player atm, and the proof is in the team selections that Wiggins was also a depth player in his last 2 seasons. The same may be the case with Brock, and that's not necassarily a bad position to be in for the club despite the cost to have him play in the Dark Navy Blue.
By the way, I love my team, and every player (barring Ackland) who has worn the jumper...Wiggler included and when I saw him I did have a chat with him. Great fella, and yes a loyal legend of the club...and has his name on a locker too.
