You're right. The reality is that he should not be there but he is.There is a difference between non-plussed and realistic.
Nah, he gave the ball to players right next to a swans player on a few occasions and players he was standing got a number of easy goalsThought he had a decent game. No abhorrent disposal errors. Dropped an absolute sitter that resulted in a goal but other than that, deserves to hold his place. Terrific leader back there.
It’s fine to criticise his performance while acknowledging he’s playing (hopefully) because we’ve got injured playersHeppell cost us a goal with that dropped chest mark, but other than that was pretty solid all round. Was massive in the first quarter. I’ve gotta ask the posters who continue to pot him, who should have played instead of him?
I'm not going to rip on him all year, so I'll just leave it with this.
It was selfish of him to play another season.
Heppells still ahead of leverde hind and Kelly for me. I think in our best team, it only has 1 of the 4 in it. Heppell is a clear whipping boy for fans but was solid tonight. If we want to throw away the season and focus on development, yeh get Robert’s or Hayes in, but neither look ready to play in our senior back 6 to me.
Kelly I think is in our best 22 as a lockdown defender but if we have Ridley, Redman and Reid fit those other three are playing VFL.Heppells still ahead of leverde hind and Kelly for me.

My position has been focus on development for a few years now, I hate winning 8-12 games, I don't think it gets us where we want to be.Heppells still ahead of leverde hind and Kelly for me.
