I agree that AW more than ever should play in the forward line; especially now that Jarrad's gone....he's still relatively quick and mobile, and is an accurate kick for goal.
And we'll never forget him taking IMO, the Mark of the Year, that the ''judges'' obviously never saw.....a travesty.
Good points Crash.....we are not the flavour of the month.....we don't sell papers; and we haven't an Ablett or Dangerfield or an excitement machine like Ollie Wines.....we're boring.
In this era, I've always been very philosophical....if we're good enough we'll win etc.etc.....without ever being at all confident.....however.....we've showed something lately that I like; and still I'm not at all confident, but now quietly hopeful....if that makes sense.
I have a feeling there's a turn in the tide....it's either here or not far away.
I'm very philosophical about this team ATM, and don't really know what we'll get.
To me; they're consistently inconsistent, with no real flashes of brilliance to light up our hearts in the hope that there's better things to come....no Jeremy Howe type screamers being taken....no inspirational goals being kicked when they're desperately needed.
We hope against hope that someone will pop up unexpectedly to inspire his team mates and of course us.
I pray that perhaps in this game that we can kick some of the relatively simple shots at goal that we've been missing,only then to suffer the ignominy of turning the ball over for the opposition to immediately kick a goal....heartbreaking stuff for the team and us.
