The coaches clearly see something in Archie that us supporters do not
When he came in last time they had a definite plan to use two rucks to work over NN and then dominate when he was off. Against Melbourne it could be similar. Archie wasn't awful in the ruck against West Coast, other than the umpires being embarrassed that he received the first free kick instead of NN, resulting in them overcompensating the other way the rest of the game.
However he's basically a witches hat around the ground, which is funny because I remember when he first came in to the seniors years ago his ability to pick up the ball and make it through traffic was actually ok as I attributed it to his basketball background - disposal was a work in progress. Now he seems to have regressed.
