That just tops efforts from Fisher and McKay and the fact that all five of our 2015 draftees have now played
Fisher should not be playing 1s this season - for his own longer term development....

I don't follow your thinking at all. Fisher is developing very well and is definitely in our best 22 on merit. That may be a poor reflection on our list but Fisher would not benefit from running around in the NBs.

To digress, what coach in their right mind would let Zorko run free...?
Bolton has a bad one in the box unless we are tanking...you didnt need to be too smart to know Zorko has stitched us up over the last few games and along with Beams
is their most dangerous player. However we have a poor history of not scouting other teams that well and our mids are not very accountable...
Martin also negated Kruezer to some extent and that limited our midfield and made life easier for the Brisbane mids....
I think the jury is a bit out on Bolton in terms of match day tactics in terms of seeing the flow of the game and responding quickly enough....also the Docherty/Simpson double act rebounding the ball and setting up play seems to have been highlighted and other teams are now adjusting by putting players back and we need a plan B.

poor coaching..... in hindsight

Harry.
I wasn't too sure that he was ready for the big stuff.
There green shoot was there though.
Very small green shoot, but big things from little things grow.
I hope that's what happens with Harry.
Re: Round 18 Green Shoot of the Week - Thryleon - 07-24-2017
Harry was definately our green shoot.
I think that we saw why Harry hasn't played earlier. We picked a soft opponent for him, and he played a good match accordingly.
Brisbane don't have a good defence, and I would have a hard think about whether or not we would play him against the Handbaggers.
I have seen enough to suggest he will be a player.
He might play out the year or he might go back to the VFL as I don't think hes ready for 4 quarters at AFL level at this stage.

I was pleasantly surprised by H. Didnt look out of his depth and I think did ok for a first outing. Potential is huge.
Re: Round 18 Green Shoot of the Week - Navy Maven - 07-25-2017
Regardless of opposition, I think we play Harry for the rest of the year. Let him know the standard he has to get himself too, set him up for a hard slog in the pre-season.
I liked what I saw from him. Just needs to find that accuracy in front of goal.

x2...Think he is a bit like Joe Daniher, great mark but the kicking can be a tad lazy looking but will improve over time.....I'd be playing him every week, Brisbane tried to rough him up but at 200cm plus he can
handle it....

You're probably right and I'd like to see him play for the rest of the year too. However, I am just a little concerned about his ability to stay the course. If my concerns are justified, I'd expect the club to carefully manage his workload.
