Suggesting Wyllie knew he was heaviest and strongest player on the ground and wanted to show this. Got caught up in several shows of strength both on and off the ball that in my opinion detracted from his game a bit.Made his presence felt in more ways than one . As you said kicked 3 of their 5goals Played second ruck role rested forward a fair bit. Is a big unit - may make Queensland team playing similar role as an over ager
Don't get me wrong I think he has great potential - I saw him kick 5i in a senior QAFL match last year. Difference then he was a younger player among seniors so concentrated more on his role. He got sidetracked a little on the weekend I think.
By comparison to the Lions - our guys were a smaller group - but they were not intimidated in any way. They were far more prepared to run and their handball skills were far superior as was their decision making generally.
Lions blew their shots a goal in first quarter Suns scored theirs in the second . Brisbane system again fell down in the third -particularly forward entry.
Back on Wyllie - suggest he should get chance to play for Queensland because the team needs a player like him - prepared to compete hard . His physical assets will also help players around him - but needs to remain fully focussed .
