You still can't see what value Ratten and MM see in Armfield.
Footy commentators are even including him as an amigo.
I'll give you a hint:
*speed in abundance for pricks like Cyril in the backline or Shaw in the forwardline
* disciplined as he sticks to a task and delivers
*good kick at goal and in general play. Has overcome this weakness.
*Can mark
*tackles like he's played rugby all his life. They tick,
*Real team player, does the 1%ers, and provides options.
*effort, first second third and fourth....duracell
*runs out games
*has plenty of AFL experience
......I could go in....in short, he's a gem.
Looking at your team, he only needs one spot from...imo he's infront of any of the following...Ellard, Curnow, Tuohy, Lucas, McLean...I'd drop Casboult with Waite and Kreuzer there to keep Armfield's pace on the field....same with White.
I rate Armfield, and have for years.
Really have enjoyed him getting better every year.
I remember when you and a couple of other TCers use to rate Browne (in particular) and Anderson and OKeefe ahead of Armfield (because he wasn't born in the game like Setanta

)...and yet Armfield is still here, doing really well, listed in the bests, awhilst most TCers and Carlton sceptics have taken their hat off the man.
What's the story?
