...and Denis Armfield was ordinary too, but he got picked because he always gave 100% and never died wondering.

Jack, ordinary, still busts his ar$e. Same as Daisy.
Levi, ordinary, might not require a shower after the game.

And yet, here he is, after 6 completed seasons, still on our list. You'd think that somewhere in the 3 regimes that he's played under, someone might call him out as the lazy fraud that he is, but no, he's pulled the wool over everybody's eyes.

Hmm, almost exactly thirty days younger than Weitering, people seem to forget that one!

Last night, in the in-game thread, a couple people were pointing out how many shots on goal the tigers got when Weitering was the direct opponent. Weitering was switched around trying to find a matchup (wasn't one for him) and the tigers continually went through his man to get a shot on goal.

You seem to forget that winning is the #1 priority, not giving games to kids because they are kids.

It was disappointing to lose after such a good start but the result was almost inevitable.

I believe our score is the highest kicked against the Tigers at the G for quite a while.  That’s not a bad effort and, if we can maintain that effort and intensity, we’ll trouble most teams and upset more than a few favourites.

What I liked about the game was Bolton’s obvious displeasure at losing. While he was still positive, I reckon he was seething and I’m sure that attitude is permeating the team.

I would leave the team as it is, apart from any compulsory changes.  Hopefully the nine day break will be good for Kennedy and Kreuzer.

One thing that struck me is that Samo is as hard as a cat’s head and he doesn’t mind inflicting a bit of pain on opponents.

Personally I can only judge the two based on their past. SoJ has done some OK things relative to his team-mates, but during his first season Weitering was a stand-out in a couple of aspects of his game relative to the rest of the whole competition!

Not this little black duck!

I've been calling for us to find a replacement for him for years and continue to call for one.
Love, his marking, but with his kicking, he simply cannot be relied upon.

I still think he's the best we have...and i also think that is embarrassing.

...and i agree with that.

If Silvagni was a backman and Weitering was a forward, i'd completely change my tune. But they are not.

Our backline has as much depth as our forward line lacks.

That is, our 2nd's back 6 could outdo our 1sts forwardline.....and that is simply because of the makeup of our list.

....but that doesn't change that you can only pick 22 players to win you the game on any given day, and IMO weitering didn't have a matchup and shouldn't have been picked. Pick Cunningham instead to allow us an extra rotation through the midfield....which would've helped when Kennedy went down.

The trouble is Kruddler, I don't want to see it but Weitering is probably also a better forward than SoJ. I think that was the mistake our club made, and it will take sometime to correct.

I have no problems with SoJ or with his work ethic, but through the JLT and after last night it's clear he doesn't deserve a spot any more than some of the alternatives. I'd have even played O'Shea as a HFF ahead of him. People forget O'Shea has played 81 games for Port, he's no newbie, his best game came as a HBF pushing forward against GWS!

And yet, here he is, after 6 completed seasons, still on our list. You'd think that somewhere in the 3 regimes that he's played under, someone might call him out as the lazy fraud that he is, but no, he's pulled the wool over everybody's eyes.

I wish it was 6 years, Levi joined us in 2009, which was the 2010 Rookie Draft!

You seem to forget that winning is the #1 priority, not giving games to kids because they are kids.

I wonder about that sometimes
