He surely looks like a deer in headlights in the last 2 games - no shame on the lad if he's not 'ready' just yet....
Heck, he's 18 years old.
Aren't we about winning games this year?
Not going to win picking kids who are off the pace eg Dow, Polson and blokes badly out of touch eg Weiters. (let alone the others playing like 5 y olds)
19 players doesn't get the job done against 22.
Dow did indeed look a bit lost. We need to be careful we don't over-expose him for sure and perhaps he should join Weiters in the 2s for a week or two?
Reality always wins in the end.
