Coughed up multiple goals with handling errors, kicked atrociously around the ground, applied zero tackling pressure and so slow he couldn't run out of sight on a dark night. He might try harder than some of the kids in the VFL but what he does is utterly ineffective thus it is a complete and utter waste of time continuing to play him at senior level.
When people handball it to you the ground you are going to have handling issues. Murphy cost us that goal, not Daisy.
Daisy had 5 I50's, a goal and a goal assist. Was far from the worst bloke out there.
Rewatch the last few minutes of the game. Tigers running the ball on the near side wing, tight to the boundary. I forget who it was but there was some carlton bloke jogging along behind him and the ball. Daisy comes flying past him to put the pressure on. Doesn't get a stat, but gives effort 100% of the time.
That's why he is in the side. To show the kids effort is unconditional.
Nobody is saying he is still a gun footballer. He is paid more than he should be, but that is not Daisys fault. Judge him on what he does on the ground, not his paycheque.
@Baggers...
VFL form doesn't translate to AFL form.
I'm talking effort at AFL level. All those players i've mentioned have put in terrible efforts at AFL level in terms of body language and effort.
