I partially agree [member=105]Thryleon[/member], but we've even left Weitering at FB and had guys like Casboult, Pittonet and McGovern patrolling the HBF.
Despite our D50 success it's very disorganised, there is heaps of room for improvement. We aren't overly blessed with guys who can kick, it should be our priority to make sure the ones who can kick are far enough up the ground to do so!
FWIW, the same applies to SPS. Kicking 15m passes from inside D50 is next to useless, especially when Simmo or Willo was charging up the wing and kicking the footy straight back to the opposition 50m away. Cripps is not a good kick, Setterfield is not a good kick, Walsh, Ed and Casboult are OK. Fisher and Gibbons are OK. Pittonet I haven't seen pass the ball by foot.
Outside of Betts and Martin who are probably already in the F50, Weitering, sMurph and McGovern are pretty good by foot, but all three aren't generally left free in play to make use of that skill.
It's big difference between us and top of the ladder clubs, at the Handbaggers someone like sMurph finds himself at the end of a chain, not being expected to hunt, tackle and win his own footy, but being given a feed from guys like DangerFlog and Selrot.
