just wasn’t reliable! Senior players need to be reliable! Not flashy but just do not kick it directly time and again to our disadvantage.
Acres was fine.
He has been playing with a dodgy shoulder for most of his career at carlton. He reinjured it about 6 weeks ago. He hurt it again in Q1 or Q2. Yet he keeps putting his body on the line, gut running the length of the ground and being our goal keeper.
Yes, his kicking can be average, but he's improved that this year.
I think he suffers from 'jelly legs' from all the running he does.
