Dan Butler

[TeamPlayedFine39 8,525]

Reminds me a lot of Jeff Garlett's year in 2015. 
His performance with 40 goals in a bottom team after trading him in for next to nothing.

Butler would not have done it at Richmond and he may not have been able to do at any other club.
Enjoy his success story; we don't have to flagellate ourselves every time a traded player or draftee plays well.

If he can get back to the pace, tackling pressure and goal sense of 2017, he would be a steal.  His intensity is very good.  Something lacking in our prior small forwards.  

Butler was always going to be a good pickup. Saints got him as a steal. Ridiculous.

Who is going to stop him on the weekend?

16 other clubs overlooked him as well.  

We aren't going to get every move right.  We identified a need with Langdon and Tomlinson, then drafted Kozzie as the pressure forward.  We can't recruit everyone.

BBO’s maid SWYL???

I’d seriously consider Hunt back there to man one of their quick smalls. Of course it all depends on the work up the field.

Will be very interesting. Jobs are on the line

(I doubt BBO would allow the maid out past the main gates of the The Manor DZ!!)

Lockhart on Butler is a fair match up. 
 

I always worry about Membrey.  He tests our defence.

Membrey always scored against us out the back when our defence leaked like a sieve. 

One positive this season is we've somewhat rectified that (other than our oor periods against the Power and Dogs).

Membrey tests every defense, you just have to look at his fierce attack on every ball that comes near him, I would love to see a few more of our players attack each and every ball the way he does.!!!!!!!!!!!!!
