He has shown that he has the skills to succeed but has he ever put in four quarters ? My impression is that he has never given us more than one or two quarters in a game before disappearing, and that is what caused him to be dropped prior to getting his current injury.
Best game cunners played was a couple years ago right before he got injured. Got 28 touches against the bombers....got 3 brownlow votes.
Next year against them he had 25 and kicked 2.
He averages 13 touches a game over the same period Fantasia has mixed out at 13.
Fantasia best game was when he got 13 touches and kicked 4 goals recently. 2 of them were gimmies he didn't earn, but so be it.
Apart from that you have to OK back to 2021 to see the same amount of goals or possessions in a game from him. 2021!
Cunners when used to run through the middle gives you midfield numbers. When solely up forward he gives you Fantasia numbers.
Cunners is entering his prime. Fantasia is past it.
