for me, crack is something to be smoked

This bloke owes us big time.

For pure depth purposes, this bloke seriously needs to get on the park. Would be great to see him play 20+ games as he is such a good player when up and going

With all the recent news….

Would be good for his career to head to an Adelaide or other team that needs an inside mid. Unlikely to head interstate with a newborn, but would work for the career.
Will eventually finish as back-up to the kids. Seems a waste.

Just not a modern day midfielder.

Gotta have size/power or two way running ability….the best have both.

He has neither really.

Parish had a massive focus on two way running the past 3 preseasons. He pushed his average tackles up to 4 a game in 23/24. Unfortunately the dude was just injured so much we barely got to see the work he'd done.

Genuinely forgot this guy existed. Had a great year (was it 2021?) and then got smacked by injuries, but even then wasn't without his frustrations. Not big /strong enough to win a hard ball get (is that still a thing?), isn't particularly quick and can't hit the side of a barn by foot - glaring weaknesses to be a good inside or outside mid, but is undoubtedly a good 'player' and reads a ruck tap with the best of them. Not sure where that leaves him to be honest.

He can work on it all he likes…..

Just wasn’t born with elite speed or endurance.

Just need to tell him the guys he is chasing is the footy. He will catch then every time
