It was one of the most absurd things I've seen from Horse in a long time. 80 something points down and you have your 22 year old mid trying to tag someone (and getting well beaten too - enjoy that confidence boost James!)Rowbottom is just out there chasing Dangerfield , what a waste of ******* time imo
At that point in the game do you not just go, this is a free hit to try shit now. Let the kid loose and see what he can do?
I just refuse to believe Horse could be that dumb. I still think there has to be an element of player management to it. He's young and still slight, and this is the longest season in V/AFL history, so maybe they're preserving Rowbottom so that he can be unleashed later on and peak at the right time without the wear and tear. The problem is that the season could get away from us soon if we're not careful, and we need to be banking more wins now.
