Society is so soft these days.
In my day you could grab a handful and make comment of the size of one t***ies. Brown paper bag, stern talking to and it never happened. Vanished. Could you imagine pissing away two flags over an episode of drunken stupidity? Now tasty texts and you're career is...
You need guys with fast footy brains (i.e., Sam Mitchell) and fast feet. No good having too many of one and not enough of the other. Rare for a player to have both.
Not sure if this has been mentioned, but...
With Marley and Ahern fit, and Morgan as potential backup, it seems to have freed up Atley to play in the forward half (or on a wing). From all accounts he's looked very dangerous up forward in the pre-season. Also sounds like better footy smarts down...
With Petrie gone (and Goldstein injured/down on form) he should have been given a decent run in the seniors. Playing half a dozen games for the season isn't going to do us or him any good.
That as a great grab and very timely for us.
Reminds me of Darren Crocker. Plenty of talent but always injured, fortunately in his later years he got some consistent game time and played in a premiership.
I hope that as his body matures it becomes more resilient.
