This guy was great at the end of last year when he was promoted off the rookie list. We need hard and tough guys like him. I am amazed that he hasn't got a run, considering the way some of the boys have been playing. I know that he could benefit more from a full game in the Ants but he deserves the honour of a senior birth....

I agree

In a few other threads people have included him in their lists of OUTs, I can't understand that, there are a number of guys much more deserving of a visit to the Magoos.

Give him AB a go and he will shine

l agree that AB should be given more game time especiallly when you look at some others in the side that don't warrent their selectin eg Wiggins Johnston etc.

Welcome Rodent to TC !!

One thing you will learn here is that Wiggins is GOD !! He tries his arse off and he deserves his spot.

Its Johnson too not JohnsTon ( sorry bugs me ) but yeah he can go to the twos

Welcome rodent.

I don't think Wiggins deserves to be in the magoos. If you saw the game last week, I thought he was one of the positives in what was an ordinary night for us.

l'm sorry if l offended any Wiggin supporters, l do think he has courage going for the ball but l wonder if that makes up for when the ball rebounds over his head after most of his passes are turn overs.All l'm saying is that we should give more of a go to the younger players and see what they've got; after all what have we got to lose (apart from early draft picks).

I hope AB gets some more game time too. I'm sure Denis has his reasons for giving the kids a game that have earnt it through the Bullants and then giving them a handful of minutes worth of game time ... I just wish I knew what those reasons were???
