Wright...aint quick but at least he kicks straight when he does get a joe the goose ball, most of his teammates would miss, especially Pickett.
Cripps...yep down side of Cripps is he is dead slow and blows up when he chases.....he wasnt a top ten pick for that reason, he is an extractor, does Tom Mitchell chase and catch anyone?
Dow....he isnt a great kick on the run or for goal, he isnt terrible but its not his big weapon either...everyone who watched the TAC knew that...guess what either was Chris Judd...
Kerridge....not the worst player and will probably hold up better physically than Dow at the minute but its a retro move bringing him back, he was disinterested vs the Pies VFL team and couldnt be bothered chasing or throwing himself into the fray. He knows this is his last season...
JackS...better than most in terms of endeavour but still as slow as treacle vs the Pies VFL team , yep bring him back in but he will never be the main man down forward and needs decent KP players to be effective, other teams just run off him..
Lamb....not up to it...delist..
I think Mullett wasn't picked up for the role he is playing, but I also think it was naive to think opposition clubs wouldn't exploit his obvious shortcomings.
Lamb is better than Mullett and by some margin.
Agree about the others.
What you are implying is it's our lack of depth, inexperience, frequent poor work ethic and structural issues that expose some of our shortfalls. I think you are right, and I think that is why BB is attracting some heat!
But it's a bit obvious EB1, what is the answer with the current available resources, what do we try to do differently?
