JLT game 3

[DJC]

The only chance you have of making it at that size is to be absolutely elite in terms of your skills and decision making when you have the ball. You also have to be able to read the play well to be able to avoid big collisions wherever possible.

This is where someone like Simmo excels compared to others.

My knock on Buckley has always been that despite his endeavor, speed, courage and dare, his skills and decision making are ordinary at best. You are simply never going to make it at his size in his position unless you are excellent at setting up play with each possession you get.

That is very true and we won't make the top four and beyond while our best 22 includes players who don't impact games.
