Why does he keep getting picked?
Surely there must be a reason he's preferred over others.
I know we often look at a game with our own bias affecting our opinions so we'll see the little efforts or failures that others mightn't pick up on.
...but surely a coaching group would be all over the strengths and limitations of a player and they see fit to still pick him.
I refuse to believe, as some suggest, that he gets picked because he's on such a high salary.
That's a nonsense that if true would make us pretty screwed up as a club.
Nope there has to be another sound reason.
The simple answer is that Daisy gets picked because he is currently in our best 22 - although it must be a line-ball with Kerridge. He will continue to play until the likes of Cuningham, Lamb, Fisher, etc demand his spot.
There are several other players currently in our best 22 that need to be displaced before we will be truly competitive. I guess that's the challenge for our development coaches and the benchmark for SOS's list management.
