I'd like to see Ricky Bobby get a stint in the midfield in one of the last few games of the season, i think he's got the right skills to be a brilliant 50 to 50 player

In the VFL (i know VFL =/= AFL performance) Ricky is capable of performing this task with ease and had a strong presence all round the ground. Although the obvious counterpoint is that Ricky would start very low in a crowded midfeld pecking order, i think his versatility should be explored, especially now that he has found the work ethic desired of him from the coaching staff
 
Petterd's achiles heal is that he doesn't interact with other players well enough and his core strength is inadequate (despite his ability to hold his own in the air).

IMO the club should absolutely push him to the limits to see what he can do.

Put him on the wing and see if he sinks or swims. We've stuffed around with Morton on the wing and half back to no avail. Now is the time to see who feels at home on the wing and if Ricky can improve his endurance and take off speed then give him a go!

God knows we have enough marking targets up forward as it is.

Let's put Warnock up forward and see how he goes.

Oh wait...
