Most of the concern seemed to be more centered around his durability.
Could we get him on the park and keep him on it?
Well with 9 games so that doesn't seem to be the issue.
So it's more about form
Lots of varying opinions as to the value of the pick-up.
@Kruddler....you definitely weren't a fan posting this a day or two before we picked him up.
Probably a bit much

You sure there's not just a little bit of bias in your assessment
Ha Ha.
Go back to the best 22 thread (part 1?) and i think you'll find i backed the MC in and had him in my best 22.
My issue with 'players' have always been around the role they play when picked. Not themselves as people.
I've been banging the same drum for half a decade or more in regards to picking up a key back (or 3) until we get one that can perform the role long term.
My issue is when we ignore that and take players in positions NOT in need. Fantasia falls into that category.
We delisted Honey and picked up Fantasia. What has he brought us that Honey wasn't? People were very critical of Honey, to the point they pushed him out the door, yet same people are sticking by him. Why?
We recruited small runners in the off-season.
We recruited a small runner in the MSD
We will recruit 2 small runners in the upcoming ND with the campo twins.
THIS is my frustration with the recruitment of Fantasia.
