There is absolutely no chance the club would play him if he was carrying something. These are people who still wouldn't let him complete a full preseason, two years after his injury.

his kicking has not been to the level we know he can produce. it would explain a bit if he had some form of mild op or similar injury.

Most rumours aren't credible RFC. That's why they're called rumours. I'm just putting it out there to see if anyone else has heard anything.

Lack of kicking penetration in one game (cant say I noticed) does not raise alarm bells injury wise. Every person that has played footy knows that you just have days were you kick worse than normal and no matter how hard you try you cant kick it as far as you normally do.
If he is still kicking without a lot of penetration in say 2-3 more games then yes start to question things.

He's still tiring towards the end of games.
That's is all.

He doesn't look it. He was heavily tagged and still got 21 possies on Saturday. Was in the top 10 players on the field IMO.
No tag, he would have got 30, instead Foley and Martin ran free and got 40 possesions and 3o odd respectively.

Tigerland, I read on the Brisbane board that you said the same thing, Cotchin actually had 25 Disposals, 17 Kicks 8 Handballs 8 Clearances and 4 Tackles.

Like someone else stated, there is no chance in hell we would risk playing him if he was injured.

It just looks like he is laking penetration with his kicking as you compare it to Dusty penetrating kicking which is unreal. Id say hes fine like other posters said, if there was a worry the club wouldnt be playing him

You know you spend too much time on BF when at first you don't realise OP means Osteitis Pubis, but think it means Original Post(er).
I would be in that category also
He doesn't have OP or any signs of OP !
I'd suggest he would be well within his right to have TS, the shits , given the lack of blocks, or support to break tags, that his teammates have given him ?
But let's just see what happens when others start getting tagged and the heat comes onto them and off him a little .

He's still a kid and not fit enough to play entire games just yet. Can't do that with only one 95% preseason.

Geez, I'd have him in our top 3 for the JD medal at this stage. God help the opposition if he actually isn't fit.

The clearance king thread might also provide some insight into his exhaustion ?

I'm tipping he'll take another eye in improvement post-bye. It'll give him a chance to recover and let that new fitness consolidate

Looking at the OP he clearly claims to be the Cotch, and why would we doubt him (although it's a little arrogant to talk in the third person, or 'TP', TC)? What surprises me is that TC the OP speaking in the TP doesn't know if he has OP, so I'd reckon he's OK.
WTF?
Also good to see Matty Dea happy to join the conversation.
