and that's the bitch of it.
no , we just need to tinker with our ball movement and get more intercept marks in the backline
He sure is. Didn't stop him getting subbed off after doing very little against the Giants
It doesn’t help having a one positional player like noble when a midfielder could have been 23rd named instead
You persuaded me to check his statistics, and I have to admit I am surprised - 39 goals for the year, 14 possessions in the GF and the most disposals of any year other than 2015. I recalled him struggling and thinking time had caught up with him, but the stats make a liar of me. Ok I was wrong.
Crisp moved into middle after Noble came on. A midfielder as the sub wouldn’t have made a difference.
That’s because noble is a one position player
My point is we have plenty of flexibility elsewhere in the team to account for one positions players. I disagree he one position though Noble can play on the wing as well.
It's hardly panicking. If he declines a bit / continues to underperform he should be under the pump from our young player of the same position who excelled all preseason.
True if it goes on for a while. Too early after 1 game.
My initial call that Fin comes in for Mitchell at some stage this season, if not imminently? Pretty straightforward
I don't think the calls to drop Elliott are sensible.I hope you’re right about Jamie. I don’t ever recall seeing so many calls to drop him. I fear he might have hit ‘the wall’ and no-one has noticed.
We absolutely need him back to his best, with McStay out, big questions over AJ, Schultz needing time - and of course letting Ginni walk.
It was pretty clear in my initial post, had you read what I was replying to.
I think you're being a bit defensive
