    You are genuinely biased. Didak is a far better role model for young players, look how he and the Shaws inspired the Pies to a meritorious win.

      Well there is one player on our list (soon to be delisted) who wouldn't have even flew into the pack much less held a contested mark over his head, so maybe the list will improve in that regard in the near future. More egg with that comment please waiter!

        No it doesn't. Kirk, Leo, Jude, Richards and Bolton would all have gone for that mark. He's simply the most fearless out of all of them, and that's saying something because they're all bloody courageous players.

        Quit being negative.

            I'd have rathered any of them than Bevan because they are consistently better at catching the ball. Stop being negative and get off the collective cases of Kirk, Leo, Jude, Richards and Bolton.

              Because you think you're clever, I'll play your game.

              I wasn't being negative towards Kirk, Leo, Jude and Richards. I clearly stated they were all courageous players but I personally feel Bevan is the more courageous. I apologise that you were unable to read between the lines, but I'll be happy to make it clearer in future posts.

                I would rather have someone who can catch, than someone who is simply courageous. I didn't think you had to be that clever to come to that conclusion.

                  Neither did I, but you had quite a bit of trouble with it. Ah well.

                  Bevo can catch as well as any of them. I propose you offer any specific examples of his poor marking ability, because as far as I can see, and as Saturday night suggested, Bevo's marking is quite excellent.

                    He is a very strong mark and can mark going with the flight of the ball into packs. Very few players, particularly small players, can or do that. ROK is a man for all seasons. Last week he was suggesting that a sympathetic newspaper interview had destroyed Bevos form. Got that one right as well.

                      Thx - I couldn't be bothered responding but you summarised my sentiments well enough.

                        That was a superb mark by Bevo at a crucial time. Definitely one for his highlights reel.

                        He is playing good consistent football this year. It's good to see him start to fulfil the promise of his debut year. Keep it up Bevo.

                          Last week I observed that Bevan had an ordinary game after talking himself up in the press. It could have been that, or a quality opposition that upset him. I don't know, but I make few predictions - not real sure where you are coming from there?
