Sure that's one way to look at it.
I'd suggest that they may be rewarding effort and backing their player regardless of result but who knows really?
Either way I believe 3 big mobile forwards is enough and Levi is surplus. No offence to Levi but he's had plenty of opportunity whether earnt or not, time to show that same love for Patty Kerr.
Mobility be damned he has the talent, smarts, ability and competitive game, just needs the experience of the seniors to grow.
You got it. Weeks back when playing Phillips. Lobbe and Casboult in side together made no sense. We deserved to lose to Gold Coast for being so silly in selection to start with going top heavy. This is last season for Levi. As long as he played 100 games for club, good on him, he has achieved something many would be proud to have done. Always been one of best marks in league but his kicking has always been a major flaw that meant he cannot be reliable guy in side. The future is a guy like Kerr on our list that needs developing when opportunity arises as season goes on. Hope Levi plays out rest of season in VFL and he is part of a Northern Blues team that can make finals and help the likes of Macreadie, Ben Silvagni, De Koning, Schumacher, Finbar and Owies experience some good wins at that level.
