He was BOG by a mile.
Agreed with mike. Blakely just isn't damaging enough to be given the responsibility of loose man. He can't kick and isn't particularly good at intercept marks or breaking lines; it's up to Ross to find a player more suited to the role.

Duggan played a similar role for West Coast today and was much more effective. Unlike Blakely, he used the ball well and was able to complicate freo's space for the forwards to use to their advantage.

Having said all that, there is some value in assigning a role like this to young Blakely and his development, we just shouldn't praise him unnecessarily because of some empty stats.

I must have been watching a different game. Blakely was easily our best
