Pre Game -Port v Blues R2 (Sat, March 30, 5.10pm)

[Thryleon]

Gibbons had played one game vs one of the better teams in the comp who we struggle against....he is a pure midfielder being forced to played as a small pressure forward for the first time in a new forward line that is being reconstructed.
McGovern was no star and either was Charlie Curnow.....Gibbons would be on minimal money as a rookie yet he is the fall guy along with Fasalo who had had no decent preseason at all and was a dumb selection.

Gibbons is an accessory player at best who is costing the club peanuts.......McGovern and Charlie Curnow are the ones that need to deliver and who should have the heat on them IMO because they are being paid the big money to win matches.

Gibbons/Polson/Garlett/Jack....no matter who your choice is this week are we really expecting them to be the difference?

Loaded question, but yes.

The difference between our opposition waltzing out of our forwardline, and being made to be accountable.

Polson and Jack leading the way in that respect, and Gibbons and Fasolo should be earning their stripes.  Wouldn't it be better to lose with an eye to the future rather than an eye to the present??
