So if Freddie is out for round one does that mean the coaches fave will be in?
It appeared that Freddie was already running at training today, so I have no reason to doubt that it is very minor (or management). I expect him to be available round one.
Ahh the duality of man
Went alright on the weekend.

Easy scapegoat win or lose
When he plays decent they leave him out. When he doesn't have his best game he should be delisted ..go figure

Think banners was playing wing bit on the weekend. Would like to see him given more opportunities there and roll forward where he can kick goals. His ground ball picks up are very good
Last thing I want him is having to play third tall. Down back be better than third tall
Does seem stronger and fitter this season
Good see him snap our first goal to ignite us. Non preferred foot at that

It was close to his best game in my opinion. He was very very good.
I think he finished up down back on Sunday. But he played a variety of roles during the game.
Maybe, he is beginning to get his mojo and will find a regular spot in the team.
we have a courageous win and somehow people still find grounds to pick on our playersEasy scapegoat win or lose

Overall was solid game and team first. Had that purple patch of 3 games prior to the bye last year.
Seemed to have worked bit on the tackling as did lay a few on weekend.
As said really think if his tanks up to it playing on wing. Has decent kick and can roll forward kick goals or back to help defence
Like him in the backline for a bit of grunt and also did OK on the wing

For me he is pretty much ideal for a sub. He can play forward, back, wing and as a tagger.

The Sub is seriously undervalued.
Generalists very often are!
They are vital in any great team...the genius is in the balance.

i think bailey will make an excellent coach. or has serious football nous.
i think its impressive to have played so far in his career.
tagger (follows around oppos best player)
midfielder (wafl level)
wingman
general defender
high half forward/ pressure forward/ deeper pressure forward
nullifier of oppos best intercept defender
almost as the third tall sometimes in the forwardline.
he might not have been a star. but the coach values his role in each.
