There were two occassions where LRT's flying for marks actually assisted Hall and O'Keefe taking marks which led to shots on goal.

Whether totally intentional or not what he ended up doing was getting between Fremantle defenders and Hall/O'Keefe.

Realistically he's in the side for his work ethic and enthusiasm, which Crouch aluded to on SEN this morning.

Bron mentioned this in her write-up of Andrew Ireland's appearance at the Redbacks brunch but I think it is worth highlighting.

Andrew mentioned that Lewis is in the top 6 runners at the club, despite his size, and they very much have in mind turning him into a CHB to compete against the likes of Brown and Tredrea, who apparently turn in beep test results of 15+. He also noted, though, that they have to ease him into this role gradually.

I agree totally Steve, as stated when I quoted floppinab. I just think if he had backed himself a couple of other times his impact on the game would've been greater. Knowing when to and when not to back himself is something that will only come with experience.

Funny how although many of us think that Crouch was best on ground, the swans website doesnt include his name on the BOG poll. Even stuart maxfield was in it, and I though crouchy must have done better than him.

On LRT, i think give him a couple more chances. I think he plays better as a ruckman instead of a forward because he is a good runner.

Its funny how we dont really mention goodes that often any more because he is so consistent that we just automatically assume he had a great game.
