I would never trade Salem. The challenge with Salem is finding a role for him that benefits the team. We need the ball in his hands as much as possible. Would love to see him moved into the midfield.
Way off here mate, he's hard as nails IMO. Didn't you see him go back with the flight against Acres last weekend and get smashed.
In relation to the topic, is he another footballer on this list that Goodwin hasn't got the best out of? I'd love to hear what Paul Roos thinks of him.
I'd have no doubt in playing him in defence. That's where he's most suited IMO. He's kicking and decision making would need work, but his run off half back was valuable to our team. I also thought he defended pretty well as well.
He's not bad up forward just don't know if he has the football IQ to play there.
Just the outside run that we craved and he's quick!! Obviously he has a lot of work to do on his skill execution and decision making but hopefully that will come as he continues to develop and mature(only 24 years old and only played 70 odd games I think). Great pick up!
My changes would be the following:
OUT: Tomlinson (meh) can't believed we signed him on a 4 year deal? And Jonesy
IN: Gawn & Viney
T-Mac to play down back!
Interesting name to bring up, I'm genuinely 50/50 on him. I honestly don't think he would be in our best side with everyone fit right now. How much can he improve in the future? However, I don't think he's gettable at all anyways. Blues need to keep their mids. Nice idea though.
