Re: If Melksham became the equal of Stanton.
I think some of the pressure that supporters put onto Stanton is because he started his career so strongly. He immediately made an impact.
His chance to become elite is increase that 5-10% to become like a Dane Swan, who is unfashionably elite. He is never going to be a Judd, Dal Santo or Ablett in the way that he plays.
I guess unwarranted pressure by supporters like myself wanting him to perform an elite level rather than accepting he's a very good but not elite player doesn't help either.
