Do yourself a favour and take out the Brisbane game and check when he last had significant impact in any game including Casey, I think you'll find it's around round 17 last year. That's 1 good game in nearly 12 months, like I said hope he comes good but not holding my breath.
Can't say I'd know who to replace him with at the moment,Baker looked a player at Casey yesterday might be worth a try. Spargo to deemed to me to be more involved in the game.
First game back- irrelevant, he's an experienced player been playing regularly at Casey. His tackling was ok, I'd like to see him have more score involvements, after all, we did have zillion inside fifties.
