There was but I thought put to bed... Be great if we could.
If it is his bluntness that gets people offside then I don't think he'd have
Yeah you read to many Barrett articles.!You don't get over 30 touches a game without being able to run. And given pace is one of our strengths a bull like Rockliff sending it out to runners would improve our midfield exponentially.
Laverde is yet to cement himself and may become a star, but Rockliff already is one.
Rockliff will be 27 in Feb 2017 will fall off a cliff in 2018 like Armitage did this year. We are not a quick team we just moved the ball quicker this year, in fact (take Steven out) our midfield would probably be the slowest and worst on the spread in the comp.
Armitage, Ross, Dunstan are slow. Gresham and Billings in a straight line are slow they make up for it with agility.
We need dynamic line breaking midfield speed eg Treloar, Martin not slugs like Rockcliff.
Jack Steele is a much better and more sound long term option IMO.
