Robert Heatley Stand / Re: Baby Blues vs Coburg on Sunday at Preston
If Laidler  is continually played as a forward and is denied the opportunity at senior level then I call MM a "C".  Let's face facts. Most of Micks changes appear to be  anti Ratts. Walker to the backline, No Laids or Duigs, Yazz the forward, disrespect of Eddie, love of Lucas. I actually expect to see Laids seek a trade back to Geelong and he will become a gun.
Sorry mate, couldn't disagree with you more on all of the above. You call MM a "C", do you expect him to pick players on name and reputation do you? Seen a few NB games have you? Duigan and Laidler have been putrid on a large number of games and hardly warrant selection. Robbo got a rocket last week and was sent back and responded, I suspect there will be more of that with others. When challenged, some blokes respond, some dont and/or sook it up. The two aforementioned appear to be in the second category at the moment. All is not lost though, they get a chance to prove themselves again today.

Robert Heatley Stand / Re: RD 18 : Blues Scorch Suns (Post-Siren Sunburn)
@Dave
Agree, "intimidating" is not a word that springs to mind with our blokes, apart from maybe Robbo when he's fired up. I think there was some sort of conscious effort v. the Saints to change that but it sure don't come naturally.

Hopefully MM can inject more of this quality into the team, both with existing players and via the trade table.
Carrots can be intimidating and aggressive, problem is he is horribly out of form.
