I will put this in the DT section too.
Don't normally like players getting their own threads, but this is surely an exception.
Green's fantasy performances so far have been shithouse
Surely the captaincy can't have this bad an effect on someone?! Saw him live tonight and he got beat nearly every time the ball went near him.
Last year he was All Australian with 56 goals IIRC and with Melbourne supposed to be on the rise, I expected even better from him this year.
6 games into the year (5 for Melbourne), he is averaging 15 disposals a game and has kicked 6 goals for the year.
Role change? Age catching up with him (he's currently 30)? He was a very good player when Melbourne were on the bottom of the ladder a few years ago, so their poor form can't be used as an excuse can it?
Thoughts?
