Re: Chris Yarran has gone backwards. Reply #240 – August 15, 2013, 11:37:47 am @ThryYou've highlighted the issue we have Thry - we are criying out for tough clearance players. Yarran, and he's not alone here (Eddie, Garlett, Lucas and others) are not that type and I don't think ever will be. Without even being negative about them, we may have to let one or two of those go to get what we really need most. Quote Selected
Re: Chris Yarran has gone backwards. Reply #241 – August 24, 2013, 10:37:06 pm He played a good game tonight, wouldnt you say PI2C?He also played forward.Amazing what a bit of effort does, isnt it?There goes whatever argument you hoped to run to support your anti-MM vendetta. Quote Selected
Re: Chris Yarran has gone backwards. Reply #242 – August 24, 2013, 10:47:43 pm Yarran was in our better players tonight and chased, tackled like he should every week, should he be traded?...not if he continues to play like that but you never know what Yarran will rock up next week vs Port.

Where was his free kick for a high hit ? They scored a goal the other way and that is probably a moment that lost us the game. Quote Selected

Re: Chris Yarran has gone backwards. Reply #246 – August 24, 2013, 10:52:23 pm Thought he had a dip tonight.However a player of his class with the chances he had should have kicked 4.1. The game could have been his tonight. Quote Selected

Re: Chris Yarran has gone backwards. Reply #252 – August 24, 2013, 11:39:11 pm Yup Walters plus BallantyneI don't think even Lyon could transform Yarran, I think he will always be a cameo playerAs for WC offering a Wellingham value pick i would grab it and run like Usain Quote Selected
