Round 15 Post Game Thread - Blues v Tigers

[PassIt2Carrots]

Barkers given two interviews this week on how the forwardline is supposed to work and it's not really about who kicks the goals as long as they are kicked. Forwards are supposed to lead to open up holes for other forwards behind them etc....

He said Henderson didn't have a great night but he's a terrific leader and he if has anything to do with it he'll be with us next year.

Forwardlines usually work when the team plays good footy, midfielders hit targets and you have multiple forward options.

We haven't done any of this for 3 or 4 years and it's untrue to say Henderson hasn't played well in that time.

Still our best forward option.

I'm struggling to see how Casboult is considered a really good player and Watson should get 5 games, but Henderson is a passenger?!!

Doesn't make sense.

Well I though Cas was miles better than Henderson on Friday night.

Re Henderson perhaps passenger is a little harsh, but you talk about midfield and delivery well he gets it pretty good every week but he does not hold his marks and as astute people in the game have also commented, he doesn't want it enough, which is what I've been saying all along. You said he was average last night well TBH I saw no difference between his game last night and pretty much every game for the past two years. He just went, and that was it. Makes good leads yeah but he simply does not want to hold that mark enough, he doesn't have the ticker required. He's an underachiever in my eyes. It seems I'm not the only one that's taking note.
