Been a handy player and sets a good example but I think we need four high class attacking mids rather than three plus one defensive one, a game winner rather than a saver.
Teams just bat deeper now and we need more players with better weapons.
Ed will make us a handy B grade midfield but I want an A grade set of mids who can compete with the best and who require taggers not the other way around.

The problem with getting too many a-grade mids is that nobody wants to get their hands dirty.
Look at GWS, best bunch of mids in the game, even though they lose an a-grade player most years.....yet as a team, pathetic. They are a bunch of superstars with no team-first players.....or very few at least.

The player who worries me most is Harry.  Since his recruitment we have been waiting for him to deliver.  At that time he was compared with Wayne Carey.  We all know that Carey had a football brain.  What is between Harry's ears is anyone's guess.

It's said that he'll get better when he has played fifty games, but the mistakes he continues to make through stupid mistakes and being a smart ar@e should have been dealt with by the time he had reached ten games.

If Teague allows Harry to continue with his dinky kick across the body shots for goal, then he is wasted at full forward.

Maybe put him at centre half forward where he will be forced to kick the ball properly and he could actually trouble the opposition.

GWS as a whole have always had the soft tag, highly skilled but if you go hard at them they only have a few blokes who stand up...Greene, Ward....they had to keep playing Mummy, but have very few who wanted to scrap hard including their mids.

Love or hate Murphy I think its time we moved on from him, ditto for Ed Curnow, Betts and probably Casboult(when we get a replacement). Its time to play younger players and look to change things up...vs Richmond it was the same old same old.

We didnt take our chances and fed them with mistakes they lived off, been the same for a while and getting the same results from the same group of players is bordering on insanity.
Play Fogarty in Murphys role and let him develop, bring in Stocker, Honey, Durdin to generate some excitement and find another tall forward/ruck to help TDK and Pittonet.
I think both Murphy and Betts have played one season too many and while you need experience you dont need players who are holding younger players back. Mitchell, Lewis, Hodge were all moved on by the Hawks to allow fresh blood to play.
I'll be saying the same thing about Cripps in a couple of years if we cant win a flag, let him go and lets gets some value for him while we can. Murphy should have been let go when we let Gibbs go, fresh start for him at a contending club and we get some picks/players who might help us more. Watching players just fizzle out like Murphy as one club players is old school thinking and its a professional game where the clubs needs come first.

Easily got a ticket in the AFL members level 1 last week. No luck today despite capacity being increased to 75%.
