Frosty always been capable, the biggest knock on him was the Frostball skill errors or what looked like complete brain fades.I never said that, though. Frost has always been good in my eyes.
My big thing at the start of this season that copped a bit of criticism was that to a large extent it really doesn't matter who is in the backline, and that the key battle will always be how much we can limit the ball from getting there. I think that's what has proved to be the case. Frost is a good player but, as with most players besides the absolute best, he proved less than stellar when barraged with I50s.
Offering big-ish money and a long contract to someone like Esava was to some extent born a bit out of desperation, now there's confidence in the rest of the team to not put our defenders under pressure we'll be a bit more selective with our options.
They have taken the ball out of his hands and simplified what he needs to do, take the oppos guy and if you get the ball look to handball first.
Havent seen him running with it then turning it over this year as much
