Yeah because if he can't dispose of it cleanly or handle a tackle as a lose half back.. he's sure to handle the pressure in the middle!
The point still stands, can’t expect him to be a world beater after a return from viral illness. More so most of the other supposed stars from each team also had a lot of comical stuff ups in today’s game.
Yeah horrible game from Fyfe for example
did you even watch the bloody game? Bryce was so far off it that it wasn't funny. Most of our first year players were outplaying him.
It's bad enough trying to hide him off HBF.
We cant have that level of effort in the midfield
I caught up in the second half of the match. Listened few mins on radio in the first half.
I’m not really arguing that Gibbs was good. More the issue that he deserves some slack and better to judge him for next week.
Obviously if he plays similar next week then he deserves to be the next senior demoted. If he plays well, then this thread is going to look silly. Just saying.
Maybe he’s still playing for Carlton... the undercover agent

Fast becoming one of the worst trades in the clubs history..
Just think... we could have jack Higgins and Ed Richards running around for us right now...two lads that give their all... instead we’ve got a bloke who jogs around barely contesting living off the back of his fathers name..
There’s heaps of blokes in the SANFL that deserve a run before Bryce..
He’s been caltonized.

He's a laconic footballer, and when he's not in form it looks woeful. I suspect he gets the boot again.
Even if Gooch didn't do a great deal of anything id still keep him in.

I was one that didn't want us trading for him. He should have come home as a free agent. Once he signed a 5 year contract at Carlton, he should have stayed there. However, once we did the trade to get him home, even though we payed too much, I thought at least he has an elite kick. How wrong was I about that?
This was the thing that was posted. 1. He’s at best a B+ player.
Problem though for us and Carlton is that he’s a cruiser. He’s literally the definition of the type of player that you don’t give a long term contract to. They said that he could go out there with a raw egg in each pocket and return with both un-broken.
Who cares, he’s average. Happy for him to be retired.
Was never as good as you thought he was. We argued over this.

From memory those who were against the Gibbs trade for what we gave up were ridiculed. I said from the beginning he was worth a 2nd rounder. Has proven to be right. If he really wanted to come to the crows he should have come when he was out of contract as a free agent.

He came in off a limited pre season and has had a disrupted year. Probably needs a spell of 2-4 matches in the magoos to get match fitness, then he will have confidence in his body. He'd have got those matches if Seeds hadn't injured himself, if we do the right thing now, he can be an important player for the second half of the year
You’re a doctor, if you’re not right, then you’re not right. The only way to a flag is that every player is held accountable for their performance. Nobody cares about players having excuses as to why they were s**t. You’re either right and benefitial or you’re not right and a liability. It’s not rocket science.
Very good player, but he’s a complete cruiser. Always was and nothing has changed. I’m surprised that many astute judges failed that simple reality.
I've got an idea for him if he wants to be a prime mid... play like one.
Yes I agree we need a player we can get ball out to that can distribute ball and create . Thi nk most over the top with criticsm.
So many were worse and talking attitude maybe place Gibbs on wing and get rid of the real Squib. Atkins

I was on a bus chock full during a Monday rush hour and gave up my seat for an old lady, with some diarrhoea still left in my pants.
He’s not.. it’s not rocket science. He’s our JJ, Gibbs, Lynch downhill skiing crew,. Swap them out with pacey, hard tackling, arsewipes like Jones, McHenry etc and we’ll be better offf. Accepting rubbish is a cancer to success.
