You don't think he is up to AFL standard so we get rid of him? Going by that theory we also get rid of the 41 other blokes who did worse than him in the B&F.
We desperately need a running half backer with maturity (for now until we develop a few), whats the point in drafting another reject or throwing a young player into the fire and see him get pulled apart like the rest of our 1st year players in the past.
Why do you think the Hawthorn's and Geelongs and Collingwoods have young players that step in and fill the role?
Because they have the 2-4 years in the VFL to get their game right, most are picks 20/30/40, but because they have time and mentored by the older players they have a better chance.
We throw a 18 y.o. into the AFL and wonder why his confidence is shot, injured and no good…..
Regardless who it was, my point it the young players who were thrown to the wolves are now struggling and being delisted because of lack of time and senior bodies.
Our better players
Jones
Jamar
Dunn
Tyson
Vince
all matured and grew with bigger bodies and time….. coincidence? I think not
Again, hence why Roo's is keeping some of the older players and letting the Salem's of the world go back and forward from the VFL we needed.
