Yes, I have to agree.
It seems many people fail to recognise the need for players like McLean and Graham, Wright falls in the same boat. They might not be the highlight reel players, but they are the ones who run to the right spot, never stop working, always do the right thing by their team-mates, draw opponents away, fight for every possession. For that matter Daisy is also becoming that type of footballer. They are the guys who contest against ruckmen or race horses, they might not win but they always compete. They are Anti-Yarrans, they will still be competing even if we are 10 gaols down with 60s left on the clock, that is all a fan can ask for and it's called heart!
That was how we beat Collingwood yesterday, we had a team full of players working hard in unison, I didn't see a single passenger wearing Navy Blue!
Well said. You look at any premiership side and you'll find that the 'bottom 4' or so are the Grahams, ASOSs, Rowes, Whites, Kerridges etc., despite their faults their chests are full of heart.
