People defend him because they like him, I like him. I just want him to succeed
Yeah but come on... you can't justify his selection anymore.People defend him because they like him, I like him. I just want him to succeed

His first season was 2010. In 2011, he suffered persistent hamstring injuries. In 2012, he broke his damn leg. He’s had subsequent soft tissue injuries on a regular basis (quite common after a bad break). His career has been continually interrupted by injury, especially early on, and that negatively impacts development.
Now, that’s not an argument for his continued selection, just a statement of fact. Had he not suffered those injuries (especially the broken leg), his career may look substantially different. But he did, and that sucks for him. We’ll never know.
rohan breaking the lines and scoring a desperate goal this week against geelong off of 1 posession for the whole game would warrant his selection for me. He's the only one capable of getting us out of shite if we're in the position where we desperately need it. Don't forget it was rohans and ronkes clutch efforts that beat hawthornYeah but come on... you can't justify his selection anymore.
I’d love to see him as the lead up forward but everyone looks to Franklin. It is a bit of a problem for mine.rohan breaking the lines and scoring a desperate goal this week against geelong off of 1 posession for the whole game would warrant his selection for me.

20How many games has he actually played in the NEAFL?
20
I posted this a few weeks ago so out of date for some players but Rohan hasn’t played any NEAFL this year so still on 20

He probably found it in the Gary Lyon /Billy Brownless threadsI LOVED it! Where the hell do you get these clips? I remember those ads... I'm old
Why would they need balls to drop Rohan? My suspicion is that the coaches aren't using possession stats as their KPI for Rohan, so whilst some fans focus purely on the number of times he touches the ball, the coaches are looking for other actions that he must be performing well enough to retain a spot.The one player in our team that could literally not get a single possession in a game of footy and would still get picked the following week.
He won't be dropped this week or any week before the end of the season because the coaches don't have the balls to drop him.
Personally I think the combination of Hayward and Ronke might just be enough to push Rohan out.
Or what about as a link man on the wing?I guess the question with Rohan is whether there is a place in the team for someone with his attributes, given his known weaknesses, as we've seen enough to know what to expect from him. I don't have the answer to that question, but Ben Ronke's pace in the forward line could force him out. Back to the HB line is another possibility, if Horse thinks we need more run there. Aliir and Rohan as attacking half backs would be an interesting proposition, though not the most accountable combination!

I think he'd go missing no matter where we play him. He has played hb previously and was equally as bad at it. The minimal possessions he had he sprayed them. Waste of time
