    For me Buchanan's contribution was summed up in the final quarter when he went for a kick off the ground despite being 10 metres in the clear.

        I think this is a kind of contradiction. Bevan at least puts his body on the line and dosn't shy from contests.

            It was contagious. Maxfield did the same right at the start of the game and the end result was an Eagles goal.

                I look silly at this time for saying it but I reckon Bucchanan is a gem.
                He has poise and swagger of arrogance when he gets the ball that reminds me a lot of Leigh Matthews when he played his last few years as a small forward.
                If anything he is not selfish enough to be playing on the forward line.
                I hope Roos continues to be patient with him.

                    I kind of agree with skilts stilts. I think Bucky can turn into the midfielder we (will) need i.e. to replace Willo when he retires.

                    I tend to think of Bucky like the Hyphen. Not really doing much in the team, but still not being a negative influence i.e. not costing us that much considering they are being "blooded". They are not as costly to the team as say Nicks, Mathews and possibly Maxfield and Bevan.

                        I agree, and have been a Bucky supporter since the game at
                        Subi last year against WCE where he put in a hard physical
                        effort . I would like to see him start in a forward pocket and
                        work as a crumber to BBH as he leads out from F/F . I hope
                        Roosy perseveres with him.
