    Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.
    Blessed are the cracked for they are the ones who let in the light.

      Is actually a very smart footballer, knows when to lead and to where, which makes him critical to our structure at present without Hall and probably MOL in the next couple of weeks.

      Only thing holding himself back is his kicking for goal (field kicking is nothing special but at AFL standard).

      It's always had to break kicking for goal habits, but as long as they can find work out a routine that he is comfortable with he should be able to improve his kicking for goal.

        I can't think of a single player who has improved his kicking at goal well into his AFL career. This is his sixth season. I think it is unlikely we will see much improvement in his goalkicking.

        However, it's interesting that, as ScottH noted, his field kicking is reasonably accurate so he is a prime candidate for focussing on passing to someone in the crowd when shooting for goal.
        Captain Logic is not steering this tugboat.

          Robert Harvey is worse. B1 won one off his boot so thats a bonus. Just one manboob's opinion.

          EDIT: Henry Kickfair is looking better in front of the sticks lately and all.
          I was wrong about Gerard and his hair.

                Would much prefer White in the team after watching Playbad close up on Sunday,Carton were just running off him and Micky o.
                Apart from his kicking which is not up to league standard he looks slow when the opposition has the footy.
