Fortunately we will have viable alternatives very soon - Curnow and SOS to name a couple.
My knock on Everitt is his poor contribution in just about every other facet of forward play apart from opportunistic goals occurring purely due to the good work up the field - Everitt likes the 'easy ball' and that's just not good enough. White has shown that he can kick goals when up forward but gives more defensive grunt.
When players like Everitt and Casboult make mistakes or, in Everitt's case, fail to be fierce at the contest it can have a demoralising effect on other players... after all, others are busting a gut to get the ball into our forward line.
When you have 11 more inside 50s than your opponent and lose by 2 goals it says only one thing really clearly... your forwards, especially your key/taller forwards, are very badly letting down the team. Our small forwards and midfielders hit the scoreboard really well last night and worked tirelessly in other aspects of the game.
Levi is a coach killer...he can take 10 marks and you would eb lucky to see 2 goals next to his name, Everitt is everything you say, lazy, just wants easy ball, takes his eyes offf the footy when theri is heat in the area but if you give him 4 marks near goal he will kick three goals....
Levi will stay in the team by default for a while but he has to go..I'd rather see Jaksch developed as a leading FF and McKay as our CHF and have Philips or Gorrings as the 2nd ruckman....
Everitt will be traded out IMO at seasons end....
