If Clark had Worpel's rig, he's be an AA already.

Very, very talented kid. Just needs his body to catch up.
MMMM jury is out on that one - he is incredibly slow...no natural pace at all

He may be suffering from having been thrown to the wolves. I didn't hear it myself but understand Nick savaged him pretty badly on the AFL app.

It's cause he's exhausted after 10 minutes!

When you have a few natural footballers playing in the seconds and constantly left out for others underperforming in the seniors that should give you the answer.

Off Topic
Richo continually promoting players like Newnes as an high grade leaders, when he is a spud is the majority of his problem. Richo looks for qualities in players who play like himself, battlers and thats all that Newnes is. Due his poor skills he wouldnt get a game in a top 4 side and for that matter either would Seb Ross.

Ross and Newnes should both be traded, as the team will never improve when they are held up as the levels or leaders.

Is it possible that Cho tries too hard to please the senior guys?

Is he trying to protect his own arse, by keeping the senior guys on side?


There's no doubt he has an undeniable history of bizarrely persevering wirh horribly underperforming senior players.

I'm sure this is true. To be fair though - as I've said before - this is part of the reason he was hired (to keep the senior guys on side) - albeit at that time, the senior guys had more quality.

Jesus Christ or the Dalai Lama couldn't get this mob winning more than 50/50. Problems run far greater than just the coach.

Fully agree with this...

The so called 'leaders' of the club are generally average to below average spuds.

I've always said that this generation needs to move on in order for the club to evolve....very very poor crop currently.
