If he doesn't kick 250 goals in the 2018 season he's failed.

Disagree. Remember Anzac Day when the Pies were briefly getting on top? He moved into the ruck and snuffed that out nice and quickly.
Yep, needs to kick 11.4 goals/game next year or delist

And after he did that? Been pretty much back to slim pickings of it being of any value leading to awesome entries such as the put it on Josh Green's head one out and see it ping back the other way at a million miles an hour.

Having one of the best forward talents in recent time running around 100 - 150m from goal in the ruck isn't a good use of that talent despite the couple of times he did eye catching things.

I'm not advocating he does it all the time, but if we need a point of difference and things aren't happening around the ball/in the ruck I think it's a good option to have.

That's all I'm saying.
