Opinion Ben Sinclair - Never again

Who is james joyce?

James Joyce was an Irishman whose novels included Ulysses and Finnegans Wake.

He was a genius who streamed words in unusual combinations.

As a barista, you will earn more money than James and be much more popular with the ladies.
 
So I'm brave enough to say it.
Sinclair is one of my faves.. Yep that's right. I like him I think he can break lines from defense but I feel he is always injured or coming back from some injury or concussion.

Maybe I'm a bad judge but my favorite player is Taylor Adams and I was defending him when this site hated him because he couldn't kick
Now it's clear we are a much better side with Adams then without him.

Let's give Sinclair a go.

If alls the mall backs are fit Sinclair isn't playing.

I'd prefer he went back to his roots and played small forward and Blair got the big A.
Sinclair is an automatic in if fit and Bucks is coaching as far as i see.

I cant fault Sinclairs effor but he uses the ball poorly and constantly handballs to a player under more pressure than himself and turns it over. He has been on the list 6 years. Seen more from Blokes in 5 games than he ever has.
 
These 2 guys are average footballers and won't be part of our next finals tilt, whenever that may be.
Of course they will be because you will never get a list of 22 A graders that never get injured, you need 35 players but they don't all have to be stars. All the same rubbish was said about Turner Gayfer Manson, or more recently Goldsack Macaffer L Brown. Premiership players every one of them and absolute spuds according to those in the know at the time.

That part was the major reason we got reamed on Sunday. We will never get anywhere when most of players behind the ball are crap kicks.

Never know James could of serenaded the ladies with his poetic words
 
He can tackle, he can harass, but he can't do anything else.

He is a good old fashioned "goer", he tries hard, but the longer he is in our 22 the worse we will become.

He's depth at best.

We have too many of that Type
 
Picking up easy touches and doing no damage is not helping our cause to win.

That may be a long way away if these two are still in the 22.

All those players had/has more going for them than Sinclair.
Probably his closest "rival" would have been Jamie Turner.

He was also terrible. :)

Your overstating the Adams hate, allot of people like myself said he needed more midfield time and and continuity and then he would be fine.

Yes that's it, right there, that's exactly how the other players were viewed until their detractors realised you need foot soldiers as well to win a war.

I'm with you.
He's ok.
Better (much!) than he's given credit for.

Is he elite or a star? No, but he'll do till one comes along
 
Except half a dozen of them were injured at the same time at one stage this year. You don't win flags with 22 players.
Except on grand final day ;)

A terrible premiership player and that's the point! I was there and he did his job!

Sinclair is no mug, if he was player 22 in a premiership team nobody would blink an eye, just like they didn't with Jamie (I can still see him crying in the rooms after the win) they simply all can't be stars.

I was there too. He and Kero were both lucky.
Alan Richardson very unlucky.

Anyway, your comment is the standard response to someone being hopelessly inadequate.
Yes they can't all be stars. But Sinclair doesn't do a job at all IMO.
Toovey is also limited, but for years he did a job.
Sinclair is terrible at defending, and a poor decision maker and a poor user of the ball.

Kerro was always first choice when fit and Jamie never got dropped because he did his job, and just like Sinkers he was lambasted when we didn't win because he's an easy target. End of day Premiership player and that's all that matters.
