You just didn't like the response so you grow up.

He was never slow. It was just some posters on here claiming he was. They may have influenced your opinion.
There was an article publised some time ago where Seb himself debunked the theory but gave an explanation as to why some had formed the opinion that he was slow.

I'm paraphrasing here but didn't Seb say (about a year ago) that one of the issues young mids face, as was in his case, that the jump in fitness is sooo huge than many young mids simply aren't able to do running/work outs to get to the required level short of a few years?

Re: Seb Ross
A couple of years ago someone on here or possibly fb was saying the Ross was crap and that Josh Saunders was better than him at every aspect of the game. It's comforting at times when players are being unfairly bagged to remind myself that some footy followers just have NFI.

Re: Seb Ross
I'm sure that's right, I think he said that after that breakout few games last year. I've always thought we were hard on his "perceived" speed any because some of us didn't appreciate how big he is at about 187. He always covered a lot of ground, but it's the accelerated sprint out of the pack that seems so impressive now.skeptic wrote:SemperFidelis wrote:What I want to know is how he has seemingly significantly improved his speed. 2 years ago he seemed as slow as treacle, now he has afterburners.Johnny Member wrote:The highlight for mine was him backing himself to break away from stoppages.Trev from the Bush wrote:The time and space he created and the poise he demonstrated in heavy traffic to pinpoint a pass to Bruce, who goaled, was a text pook example of how football should be played.Johnny Member wrote:Ross' last quarter was enormous!

Dunstan is 2 years behind, so I'm optimistic ...

His idiot cousin, whose name I can't even remember should get the bigger sanction for committing third man in.
I should be let off but get a Saintsaitional commendation for defending the honour of a Saints legend.
