I dunno if i agree with that mick, bruce especially is often part of the starting 4, and last season macca was our B&F.
undoubtedly we had more players of class out (TJ, white, moloney, pickett, davey, whelan, et al)
couple other things, robbo looks fit again and godfrey is no longer in the best 25 as bate and jones CJ etc are now well ahead of him
