I think Polson deserves a few games and told he is the team and maybe just needs that breakout game of 20 plus possies to kick start him..
Tough ask vs Port though given their onball riches but vs Brisbane and the like he might have learned something by then and deliver for us..
Obrien needs to toughen up and attack the ball better, nice left footer but more grunt required....
EB, you've been banging on about O'Brien and how he needs to toughen up, the kid has a boys body and obviously is aware of that, but there are different classes of toughness. I think it was Grundy who took a screamer on O'Brien knocking him flat, O'Brien got up off the ground straight away and started to chase, that's a tough mind, he just doesn't have the physical size to plow into packs, it will come in time.
If we were a better team he would be still playing 2's, learning how to play against me, but we're not and Lachie is getting a game and doing ok. At least he runs hard both ways.
Also Poulson looked to be knocked out early in the first, he dragged himself off the ground, waived the trainers away and chased, well done young man.
