Re: Give Harry a go Reply #45 – March 28, 2018, 11:16:37 am Quote from: DJC on March 27, 2018, 10:06:11 pmCasboult has a very soft free kick awarded against him.Which seems to be a pattern with Levi, as of today his free count stands at 67 for and 95 against.People have been known to compare Levi with Tom Hawkins on this board, as of today Hawkins' free count stands at 212 for and 206 against, Jack Riewoldt's is 222 for and 209 against, Josh Kennedy is going at 234 for and 216 against.Logically a key forward should receive more frees than he concedes, but this doesn't seem to be the case with Levi.

Re: Give Harry a go Reply #50 – March 28, 2018, 02:54:22 pm Quote from: DJC on March 27, 2018, 11:10:10 pmSo far Rance has had two marks, three kicks and two handpasses, and one of those resulted in a goal to us.Casboult has had 10 hitouts and has brought the ball to ground in our forward line on four occasions.I suspect that Rance will accumulate most of his possessions when Casboult spends more time in the ruck, but don't let that spoil your adoration for blokes who play for other teams MBB. SOS had 8 disposals in the 95 Grand Final. Ablett must have done a great job according to you.
Re: Give Harry a go Reply #51 – March 28, 2018, 05:57:39 pm Harry should get a game or 2, VFL form is far from convincing one way or another.Delivery would be substandard. Grounds are substandard.even the amount of develivery could be substandard.Get him in the 1's, give him at least a couple of weeks and reassess.As for Patty Kerr, if he is up and about, he could replace Jack. Similar players IMO.

Re: Give Harry a go Reply #53 – March 28, 2018, 07:01:28 pm If we use that criteria though ...everyone should get a game.In his senior appearances so far Harry has shown glimpses but only glimpses.If Kreuzer doesn't come up maybe he gets a chance...otherwise he stays in the VFL
Re: Give Harry a go Reply #54 – March 28, 2018, 07:08:31 pm Would feel a bit like clutching at straws to give Harry a game based on his exposed form. Hope he has a couple of good games in the vfl, then bring him in

He played...and played and played. It worked. He was required due to a shortage of mids who could play.We have a shortage of key forwards who can hit the scoreboard. What have we got to lose? A game?

Re: Give Harry a go Reply #58 – March 28, 2018, 08:13:53 pm Is anyone else getting a slightly uneasy feeling that McKay might be the new Kristian Jaksch ? I know it's early days, but all the talk worries me a little.......

I know it's early days, but all the talk worries me a little.......I'm not overly concerned yet as big KPP's often take a while...but it would have been nice to see him demanding a spot first up.Hopefully we'll look back at the end of the season and there will be a handy 20-25 goal haul alongside his name.
