Robbie Fox is an example of what should be a lesson for us all. That is, we shouldn't write off players too quickly. He's in his 4th year now, and many thought he would have been gone by now and called for his delisting. He might well have been close. Who knows?
I've had Clarke and Thurlow written off earlier this year, but now leaning toward keeping them both. Maybe in a couple of years Clarke will be the New Dan Hannebery.Comment

Was solid again tonight. Our best defensive teams in the past 20 years have always had a couple of unsung heroes thrown in - Fox can play that role nicely. I actually feel relatively comfortable, if they do choose to make McCartin permanent down back (I love him going forward but he just looks so comfortable and composed defensively already - like he has played 250 games alread) that we have a decent group defensively coming together.Robbie Fox is an example of what should be a lesson for us all.
