O'Brien strikes me as a kid who took risks in under 18 comp and they weren't good enough to hurt him if he missed. Being exposed currently.
Both Samo and Polson can't kick goals from 40 - 45. Was never a problem for Ashman, Buckley, Sheldon etc...
Havent been a fan of Polson but he did get his two goals tonight and while he isnt a long kick I would prefer him being straight kick which he was tonight...
Obrien leans back on a lot of kicks and sprays them or kicks them short...not sure what to make of him to be honest...
