Am I alone in thinking that the club has rushed Curtin into the AFL team before he was ready, succumbing to pressure from the public (mirrored here on BF)? He was hardly carving it up in the SANFL, and has struggled in the 2 AFL games he's played. Subbing him out may not have been popular, but was the right decision to make in both games.
He wasn't carving it up as a KPD and is certainly in a development phase there even at SANFL level, but was doing pretty well off the HB where he was less accountable, and was showing a lot of promise with his run/vision and decision making. He's such a beautiful kick.
I think he'll make way for the Pies game. He just needs to get up to the speed difference between SANFL/AFL, no way should he be given a key position just yet. I do like the idea of giving him more minutes at HB though
