Patch has had 29, 21, 21, 21, 21, 19, 18, 17, 16, 14, 14, 13, 12 and 11, with 54 tackles and 6 goals.

Basti's last 4 games: 19, 18, 15 and 17 disp, 9 tackles, 3 goals.
Patch's last 4 games: 13, 14, 11 and 12 disp, 12 tackles, 0 goals.

Something has to change.
Like a bloody countdown clock those stats......but they'll both get 7 more weeks to show the "type of quality individuals they are"

Pass was shit cause he was caught in two minds, go for goal or pass. His first instinct as a forward should have been the big sticks

But then he remembered he cant nail a vital goal to save his life, so he tried to do the team thing and cross it.

Its called not having confidence in your own ability.

All NM players suffer from it.

Its what happens when you have a sh1t coach who doesn't know how, or has failed to develop his player's self confidence/self belief.

Compare that to P Roos and what he has done to C Pederson/L Dunn. Spuds, but they are starting to believe in themselves.
K Hinkley and the PAFC.

Today I'm going to spend time looking at some team and individual stats.

Firstly Patch Adams:

21 of his last 34 games under 20 touches and most well under.

22 of his last 34 he's gone without a goal.

6 goals in 14 games this year.

How is he an automatic selection?

Last night:
13 players had under 10 kicks last night. 9 of them had 6 or under.

18 players had 2 marks or less for the entire game.
Thought I'd bump this thread.

Since I posted this Patch has gone 3 more games under 20 touches.

Last two weeks a combined total of 5 kicks.

He now is averaging more fumbles than kicks per game .

The question no one can answer is, what exactly is Patch's role in the side? Is he a forward pocket? Is he a forward flank? Is he a mid fielder? Is he given a "job"?

Honestly, I don't even think he knows, which is the coaching staff's fault IMO.
