It has worked wonders for his ability to get on the park too, because he isnt copping the heavy treatment that the Gorilla minders dish out on a regular basis.
Im not solely of the belief we were doing everything wrong with regards to our players, but I think these guys leaving our club to go to places where they can play the roles that gets the best out of them as opposed to staying with us, where we needed them to shoulder heavier loads has a lot to do with their fortunes even if it is negatively impacting ours.
Not since Fevola was at the club was Waite able to play the role he was better suited to, and even back then we were still short one tall (pardon the pun).
Actually, as the most effective forward, Waite is getting the first or second defender. As we know very well, when he's in form his athleticism and unpredictability make him very hard to stop.
No use crying over spilt milk and I'm more concerned about what North's fitness and medical staff are doing differently to keep him on the park.
