Agree with you. His stats are too good to ignore.I reckon we'll delist him, so this isn't a sales pitch, but:
Frampton was tearing it up as an intercept defender earlier in the season. Has played 6 games in the seniors this year, for 3 wins, including against Bulldogs, Richmond and Port. Go have a look at his highlights against the Doggies. Ended up being used as a KPD against Carlton and got comprehensively annihilated by Curnow/McKay, was subsequently dropped, and never returned.
It was a bizarre time to drop Frampton. Was asked him to fulfil the KPD role against a team with two KPF's in the top 10 of the Coleman, including the current leader, in only what, his 4th/5th game as a defender? (has switched from KPF) Keeping in mind our other forward Butts was also next to useless in this game, although admittedly Frampton was worse. Club Record Inside 50's from Carlton.
Frampton is a major reason why we're sitting 2nd in the SANFL. Is absolutely beautiful by foot, rebound 50's galore, brilliant intercept defender. He just needs to work on his 1-1 game.
This bloke is ripping it up in the SANFL for Marks, intercepts, M gained from defence. Literally ever stat we're either bottom in, or close to bottom in at this stage of the season.
IMO he has improved his 1-1 work in the SANFL, and is now a pretty versatile defender. Your lot have experience in turning forwards into defenders, i think we will rue not persisting with him and he will flourish in another team.
