how it is we seem to recruit mainly flankers (Pettifer, McMahon, Morton, Brown, Casserly, Deledio, JON, King, Moore etc etc) plus throw in the likes of Newmann and Bowden and yet we are absolutely murdered by Collingwood's Flankers -Shaw, Swan, Medhurst, Davis, Didak etc etc

It just doesnt make any sense to me?

Also, while your at it, please also explain:

- how we will ever improve with the likes of Johnson, Tiv, Tuck in this side?
- why our players dont develop at all it seems, in fact probably go backwards?
- why Polak cant kick 40m?
- how poor Jay Shulz must feel being changed from end to end every 5 mins
- what the point in having Deledio up at full fwd is when the ball doesnt come in there and when it does the delivery is slow and poor?
- why we dont (and really have never over the last 20 years) had a decent crumbing forward, who you would think is the perfect and obvious complement to a big forward such as richo (and hopefully Hughes, Riewoldt in the future).

and most importantly, how in the world does Terry or anyone in the coaching box think we are ever going to be a chance of winning anything, without some quality midfielders that can win contested pill. Foley is a gun, but seriously, how much can one boy do? Could we please recruit some tough mids to actually give our fwds a chance ... and in the meantimes, FFS can we please play Newmann, King and Deledio in the midfield!
 
Browny is a quality crumber i would have thought...
And Edwards is the best young crumber a team could want.

Brown is quality. Edwards should be played as a crumber but with the aim of developing into a mid. Any less is selling him short.

I get so frustrated when i see Connors playing of HBF for the burgers. Kid should be pushed and pushed and pushed until he gets the fitness to play in the middle, because that is where he could star for us. Again, he is being sold short if he is "developed" (read: regressed) into a back flanker.
