Problem is PF, we really have no suitable replacement that's capable of kicking two and a half goals a game.
Fritta has been one of our leading Coleman projects for years now. Let's not forget his bag in the flag.
Is Milkshake available? A fit Jake would probably be the best alternative and match up
I don't dispute his form has been poor. He didn't seem to have a very good 2024. The scuttlebutt says he was injured.
Last year I saw him jogging after opponents way too often. He lacked intensity and I think your mate Jeffo showed how one applies forward to pressure that cracked a few ribs. And his tackles stick like a rusty pipe wrench covered in Tarzan's grip.
I don't think Fritta has that strength. I've also noticed he is mostly on or off and he needs to find more consistency. Perhaps it's a mindset where in a game of low performance, he struggles to shake it off and it becomes a fait accompli.
The club has been really slack in bolstering our fwd line. I'm not sure about Jvr. He's shown glimpses of greatness but last year he didn't seem to progress. I still think he's going to be very good player but this is the year to break out.
I have high hopes for Turner but he is still an unknown.
Jeffo is probably the new hope. Boy do we need him to perform. Let's hope he continues to score.
Also what is worrying is in 2021 we had Spargo and Nibbler backing up Kozzie to help us kick some high score....now we don't.
Now all we have is Chandler and I'm sure I'm not the only one who thinks he's overrated
Petty is back where he belongs and showed us why he should stay there. He was never a fwd. But who can we replace him with?
So many of us have here have been shouting for a big bodied experienced tall fwd. But no go. Let's just keep relying on our backline to win games.
Alas against a good side this just doesn't work. We did very well yesterday and had ample i50s to provide opportunities.
Our known fwds produced only three majors with Jeffo accounting for two third of them๐.
I would swing Milkshake in there pronto and tell Fritta to get his act together. I would also prefer young Bowey in there too as a crumber.
Ps bonus points for the word .......
Pusillanimous.
