Highmore as sub

Post: # 1906768Post CURLY »

Ridiculous to have him as sub. Is basically a one position player are gave us no flexibility when Wood went down.

We should have had Lonie, he’s very versatile.
Small forward
Trade bait
List clogger
Scapegoat

Long or Bytal are the obvious two choices that were available for the role.

Least if Lonie is sub

He can go forward and Billings, or Ross could play another position

Obviously we don't know who will get hurt, so seemed to me to be next player on the list (23rd) .

Lonnie as someone said provides options ,with Billings or Higgins pushing up the ground. Long to me offers little apart from HB so same as Highmore.

May as well try Connolly as Clark could go back if needed also,

OK, that's your opinion.

My opinion is he's a beautiful kick, in fact he's highly skilled.

If there's weakness it's his foot speed.

Didn’t he hit up Membrey? With a beautiful pass coming out of the middle

For mine he is a perfect sub, can play smallish or tallish and in a few positions

That was Clav.

Highmore is a defender offers no flexibilty.
