I don't mind 'run-with', not so keen on the scragging, holding style of tagging, I want to see Judd, Ablett and Dal Santo do their thing without being held onto all game.

Tagger effectively does the same as a defender, it's just a less glamorous title...

Yes, great article. It was good to see him giving credit to the often unheralded CJ, whose hard work demands mental toughness every game.
