So both Walsh and Harry out injured, drop O’Brien. Let’s give Ramsay and Kemp a taste….of how bad our senior team is.
Bingo.
Just needed the O’Brien dropped to win.
No point dropping O’Brien, give him the last two games, then balance his output over a month of footy.
You really think LOB has more to give than what he's shown last 2 weeks.
he doesn't play a Finals brand of footy, and goes missing when the heat is on. Fairweather footballer. Limited. Not the future. IMO
A month of exposed form will confirm that if true. I’m not his biggest fan for reasons you say, but we’ve given so many below average players a regular run, why not let LoB have his chance to shine?
If you punch yourself in the mouth, and feel its not right.
Then you punch yourself in the mouth again, and still feel its not right.
Then keep doing it....then you're an %&$#@&
LOB is like Cottrell, a headless chook.
Nice long left foot on the run, and he can get to a context but doesn't contest.
Looks like he has a strong body, but its a case of looks like Tarzan, plays like Jane.
When the coaches have been trying to drum that into him, the contesting that is, and he still doesn't show it, he aint got it.
Lets surprise ourselves with what others might do....there's only 2 games left and a few players to possibly look at:
Kemp, Ramsay and Carroll. Pity Boyd had that unfortunate injury, and only got back last week in a scratch match, but he's another from the top of the ladder Footscray VFL team I would have liked to have seen at senior level. I don't think Durdin has shown much, plus Liddle, oops, I mean Teague wants to get Betts to 350 games, so small forward taken there. Only kidding. Betts has planty of credits up this year. Happy for him to be rookie next year too.
I don't need to see Setterfield, Owies (Betts playing), O'Brien, Williamson, Cottrell, Fogarty, Levi.
Maybe SPS for last 2 games to see if he can sprint and kick long...the 2 big question marks on his game...oh yeah, and goal kicking...we might want to keep him, or he increases his Trade value.
IMO
