what he brings to our side ( competitiveness, tight in a contest, passionate) are the things we need most right now.

what rodan brings to our side ( moments of brilliance, offensive attack, goal kicking midfielder) are not so necessary ( with better options ie pearce/hartlett), and in fact some of the things which are costing us games.

we need to get rodan out of our side asap. is brilliant 1 in 6 games if that, even pearce is more consisitant and racks up more disposals and inside 50's and i dont think rodan has a tag too often either. we need rodan playing sub at best, pearce off the hff after he gets a decent game in the sanfl, surj giving us all on hbf/ hff, and some ball winners ie boak, salopek ( actually play him in the centre).

ive had enough of our run past the stoppage and hope the ball falls to us mentality of our midfield.

Or they found a match-up for him.

Maybe this was the plan all along to put North off guard. If so it's bloody stupid as North would have assumed Surj was playing right up until 4.30pm yesterday.
I don't think so. It was all over the radio before the teams were even announced on Thursday. I reckon there's no conspiracy in this one.

The match committee probably didn't see a defensive forward role for Surj against the Kangaroos and by going with Pittard, Pettirew, P. Stewart and Logan in the team there's no spot for him down back.

Surj was pretty poor today in his limited game time.
... he's being played as a forward FFS!!!! :mad:

... wasnt good but had a lot of mates today (MMM gave him 3 votes for our worst ... spitting the dummy after being subbed doesnt help his cause)

Is he fit - yes?

then he should be in his best position ... back pocket!!!!!:mad:
