above average player. unlikely to see him do more except on the odd game.

I think you should be left out of a footy conversation.

Yeah, what a spud. Only fourth in the coleman.

He has had one bad game, where the delivery was absolutely atrocious, give him a break.

Ahem.... GC Suns, cough, cough

But he's moving so well???

Reality is, he is still a good player, still valuable, still works.... However due to losing his freakish athletesism has come back to the pack a bit...

He should lead more and wrestle less

Funny I thought you had him best the week before that game. Why dont you overreact like round one.

I think today, last game pretty much backs my R1 argument.... His body is about forked

Luckily as a player, at 60-80% he's still pretty good, just no longer great

Pity you didnt mention that 3 and 4 games ago. maybe it wouldnt have backed up your argument. And you must be happy Saintpeter agrees with you.

if you drop him you have to replace him with someone. saintpeter seems to think that wilkes could have done better in the context of tonight's game. i'm not so sure that makes any sense.
