Re: Round 19 Collingwood vs Carlton Pre Game

Menzel is only interested in doing the fancy stuff - he always goes for the spectacular goals rather than playing the percentages and he rarely gets out of first gear to chase an opponent - has been the same since he arrived - with the exception of one game earlier this year when he actually pulled his finger out.
Yaz has always been lazy but has been going downhill in a hurry since Betts departed.
Both of these guys have great skills but are not the types you would be looking to rely on when the going gets tough - as is the case these days.
I tend to agree in relation to Menzel, but Yarran is one of the few blokes on our list who won't be bullied. I just think his natural flare has been stifled so much that he doesn't really know what his role is.
A decent coach will get more out of both players but Yarran should be an offensive weapon and not wasted in defence.
