He's a lefty ;-DFor the sake of clarity, Polec is a better kick than King.

Polec > gaff.
I had a close look at gaff vs the hawks and he is inept in any sort of contest.
I reckon he’s the type that’s looks like an A grader in a top team but would quickly fall to a B grader in an average team.
do our players just not look for him sometimes?
he's great at finding space and providing an outlet. gets burnt often.
Putting the whole physicality issue and his performance this week aside for a second....sometimes when I read posts on how underwhelming Polec has been in general terms this season, I feel like I've been watching a different player.
He'll have the odd down game, but he's a class act. And he will only become more valuable when the rest of the team starts to properly coalesce under a new coach and gameplan. Absolutely rapt we've got him.
Either way....

We are desperate for an elite user off half back and Polec is the man for the job.I don’t think we’ve used him well this season. He started the season too far outside the contest, now he’s in the middle of it getting caught.
His left peg is a weapon. I’m keen to see how Rhyce plans to use him next year. HBF maybe?
Has he played back at times already this year? His heatmap already looks a lot like a half-back, but it could conceivably be from wing play pushing into D50 as an outlet:We are desperate for an elite user off half back and Polec is the man for the job.
With Atley's pace on one hbf and Polec's precision kicking on the other we will be in much better shape with our back six.
Opposition teams will be forced to tag Polec and that will play into our hands.
Bailey Scott will take Polec's wing position from next year which will allow Polec to go back.

Statistically he is doing a lot better than he did last year so we should be fairly happy that we got what we paid for, I think it takes time for players to gel with a new club and I would expect him to work better with the mids next year and beyond.
He is good at what he does and it was what we were after, pretty happy with his inclusion in general. It will probably be better for all parties involved if we don't rely on him too deep in the defensive 50 but could say that about the vast majority of our players.
