Bruhn's stats so far aren't much different to Bytels.
I just wish Bytel could stay on the park long enough to get somewhere.

When the ball drops 30 meters away...not so hard.
She doesn't drop the ball, and seems to be able to make evasive moves.
Get her in as a small forward.

melbourne were super s**t... first thing they did to fix it was get roos... then they poached a decent head recruiter
roos helped turn the culture around inside the playing group
the head recruiter actually delivered decent players

His name is Chris P. Bacon.
the P stands for deliciousness
Master of the blind turn
Are you a sh*t club?
GWS are squeezed for SC, last I heard we were into Taranto, they may have been able to keep him so next cab off the rank is.. Bruhn
I think Howard's Howard's a decent backmen, but Lewis kicked 3.5 and had 8 marks, which would be a massive day out if he'd kicked 5.3 instead

Bobby Hill also wants out so that may also relieve some cash

Its your mate Doug's at training
If it has substance then 4+ years would be about the mark and I agree he'll most likely be going to the Cats which would force us to bump up our offer. I wasn't aware of his disposal issues though until you brought it up. Was that just one game of a consistent bad habit?

He's had a poor year and looks like the weak link of our backline. Dawson is probably held in ridicule unfairly. We didn't understand a loose defender that intercepted in those days. He'd stand off his man as part of the zone and fans would scream at him. Now he'd be very handy as he was good enough one on one but had a very good closing speed and was disciplined enough to be a super solid zone defender. Max H was a star one on one defender, his man never got an easy mark if he was on him and he was running on 100% pure heart. Zac stole his spot and a lot of people could never forgive him for that either.

It really needs a review of where we are at and not by Lethlean. Get a pro in to do a really in depth list assessment. If we are a few pieces off go hard at FAs and trades. If we look four years off a premiership draft and more draft. Knowing where we are at is the most imperative thing.
Max used to study his opponent, he'd know who it would be the week before and he'd do his homework and go out with a plan to contain whoever it was.
Then with Dawson at the club he didn't know if he'd be playing or who he'd be playing on.
Five of his last 7 games had both himself and Dawson in the 22.

Don't poke the grumpy bear
So if this is the case why did Cameron or Lynch or Reiwoldt or some of the other KPF's didn't get a hold of him? Howard is the absolute least of our problems. If the ball wasn't whistling down at a rate of knots out of the weak willed midfield or the one way running forwards who might like to give the backs a chop out occasionally.
When we were 8-3 or whatever it was we were third best defence averaging 70 points. Was at the time the mids were playing well, but also we would have leaked many more points if Howard is the terrible player you and the rest of the baying mob are to be believed. You guys latch on to a periphery issue when we have actual real and bigger issuues in the forwards and mids.
You lot think Joyce would be better? Lol maybe if Wilkie or Paton or Webster is injured but he is not a KPB. We kicked four goals on the weekend but the issue is a Key Back whose job is to spoil. Admittedly Sydney would have kicked more if Ratten kept Howard on Buddy, but I blame Ratten on the first place, a terrible matchup by him. Howard is certainly limited in his ability but at least play to his strengths, don't put him on someone who is built like a Key Position player and has the agility of an outside mid.
If my aunty had balls....she would have weird pronouns. Fact is he didn't. A couple of those from memory were in junk time after we had kicked 22 goals.
Seems like facts doesn't fit the myth of Howard being the worst backman we have had since Jackson Ferguson.
