Chin up, you are a relative newb. I've had reservations on a few players over the years including Mark Blake, Taylor Hunt, Billy Smedts, George Horlin-Smith and Jordan Murdoch. Lets just say that the prognostications are generally realized.
I would leave it on the shelf. Offer it to a player who has played on it list and earned it a few years from now
Yeah actual that's also a good idea
he used to play like there's no tomorrow at the Kennel, but at the Cattery has become weary and wiser.
Playing like an older player? Desperation is diminished, experience gives one a full range of inputs , the ups and downs.. and experience teachs one to stay away from the downs by being more careful. Old stocker brokers , older race car drivers ... they all tend lose the taste for extreme OTT risk.
Given that it has been already used for several years post Ablett senior, it's a bit late to retire it.
Do you mean 2021?
I will expect many teams to bounce back next year, including Clarko's Hawks and GWS.
NOBLE would have been a great choice
Can not see Bews and Kolo out with Narkle and CC in. Both from MC pov, and my pov. But time will tell.
Harsh for Bews I admit but I think only one of Henry/Kolo in the team at any one time is for the best, it makes for strong depth as well.
They play very different roles. I can see Bews as a full-time small lock down player, but Henry can and has been a utility, and we need that sort of versatility. They are both very quick and strong physically.
I was unclear, I meant to say only one of Henry or Kolodjashnij in the team at the same time which is why I left out Kolo in my 22. Bews was unlucky to be left out but I think Tuohy can play the small lockdown role and Clark takeover Tuohy's roles further up the field.
