Where’s WheelAndDeal got to? He come in hot and in the Martin thread, now he’s disappeared. I wanna know his thoughts here.
You should edit your post to "I don't understand McIntosh's role in the team" and hit save. Because that is essentially what you're admitting.
Kmac is pretty good in the air and often can scramble and harass and make 2 on 1s into an even contest until it's a ball up or the calvary arrives, I would have him every day of the week instead of Jack graham on a wing. Campbell still a bit green and not enough stamina for that role yet

Yeah, it will be some other poor sod who goes out for Graham.

Kmac is very good without the ball which is 99% of game time (covers the ground, maintains position, cuts off oppo options, provides options for us), decent at winning the ball (decent mark, decent one on one contested) but less than average with ball in hand (decision making and/or execution) with the latter sometimes proving very costly. He should be instructed to give the ball off if at all possible in the least risky way possible at all times to nearly anyone else. Go backwards if necessary. No F50 entries. He will lose his spot as soon as one of the young blokes can run all day.
He also kind of runs like frankenstein if you watch him, always has this arms kind of awkwardly half extended when he's tracking the ball. Doesn't make him any worse it just looks weird.

KMac is a disaster atm with almost one in three of his disposals being clangers. I wonder how many SI these have been for the opposition? His game on the weekend was nothing short of embarrassing and all stats are indicating he's one of the worst performed players in the AFL. Don't need stats to prove this as even a blind person can see this.

tell me how this
tell me how this prima deserves a game
Well he could have got two 4 votes ... or a 5 and a 3 ... or of course, a 3 and a 5
Ralphsmith or Coulthard?
BTW what is a Ralphsmith ... someone who used to butcher rabbits?

I think I have worked Macintosh out, none of our players kick the ball to him because he is not a finisher or rarely runs into the attacking scoring zone.
he is there to fill holes, run in oppos dangerous spaces and mop up the dirty ball before we get into our proper grids/spots to launch attacks from turnover.
im guessing he's told to NOT get in certain areas and stay on the fat side and monitor areas that require donkey work so bolton, short, dan rioli types can have more spaces and lanes to launch and rebound dont do and fancy corridor inside dinky kick/s just blast it 50 metres close to the boundary, have a bounce or two if necessary so we can get organised.
most durable hard runners have a few clangers but for him it is often worst because he is so ungainly and also when he does some efficient stuff it's still looks untidy. it seems a long long time ago now that early on in his career he even made judd look foolish a couple of times
Banks was very good late ... he can have Maccas spot
salty horse probably gave him the three because if he gave him the five it would have made him look bad as a coach.

NAH you're making excuses for him and even Judd knew when his time was up. lolI think I have worked Macintosh out, none of our players kick the ball to him because he is not a finisher or rarely runs into the attacking scoring zone.

Amazing how much better we've looked without Hopper, Grimes and JGTI. You don't keep a player for his running and staying in a negating role all game when he's on a 33%DE. Need a Winger who can attack as well as defend. ATM he's killing us and he can't be carried anymore.
because he proved many times he can kick bags of goals. Are we expecting way too much from him?

And at least one of those will be straight back in this week.
Ralphsmith was good in the reserves, and has kicked the ball really well all year. He has cracked in hard in every game I have watched him in. Would have him over MacIntosh easily.
But, the real one we want in is Smith, going to be a very good player and is an excellent kick.

if he plays well consistently and the key work is consistently in the 2s he comes up
like M Rioli? I think out of the two he has had way more leniency.
I gave up melting on selections last year. At least Banks and Ross have had cracks on the wing. Kmac held his spot with a new coaching team he does seem to be playing down back more, after the Blues game where 2 KPDs got injured.
Is that "Boots" Meehan ?
