Goddard
It is time for him to play in midfield or even up forward, we need to start winning games as opposed to trying to not lose!

agreed entirely and i have said this for some time now (although my opinion means jack all in the scheme of things)
playing in the backline is robbing us of a great kick forward of the center and an agressive prick who will take on anyone
he doesnt even suit playing in the last line of defence as he is and has been played in for the last 3+ years
wasting the talent

I reckon he is also the most frustrated player behind Max, looks annoyed at the incompetence of others - which I don't mind - some home truths!
Big enough to bust packs, quick enough, can hit targets, can kick goals...hmmm...like most other elite on ballers......

Not knocking your assessment of him CS, but remember it wasn't that long ago when many thought he looked like a rabbit in the headlights whenever he got the ball?CeilidhSaint wrote:I reckon he is also the most frustrated player behind Max, looks annoyed at the incompetence of others - which I don't mind - some home truths!

I like it that he displays that anger/disappointment now and I often wonder whether he thinks back to his first couple of seasons, when I think even he must have been questioning whether he was going to make it.
Love his work now, his decision making is coming back with each game, and he is by a long shot the best kick on the list.

i think Reiwoldt should play CHB for the rest of the year and if he makes a go of it then that should be his new position...he could pinch hit forward like Hunter does for the eagles...
Who will play forward...dont know,but it won't or cant be any worse than the forward line at the minute.....

What were doin currently isn't working.....but were not the coach.....so all we can hope for is that they give something or someone else a go at other positions.

right now he is a gun and a gun shouldnt be played in the backline next too max
he has too many attacking attributes to be wasted in the full back line

When 110% fit let him run riot.
He can be an angry man BJ, let him show it through the middle and running forward.

IMO we need Goddard and Gram both out of the backline, we need some players who can actually defend in there...
Gram is not good enough to be getting a game in the backline, it is as simple as that, we should give him a go on a wing and if he doesn't cut it, we can let him play in the back line all he wants, for Casey...
Goddard is good enough in the backline so he might be worth leaving there but the way we are going at the moment it couldn't hurt to give him a chance on the forward flank...

even as the lead up chf with rooey back in the squarehouseofvictor wrote:We need goal kickers and IMO Goddard could be our man. He's a fantastic kick and he could be swapped with Kosi for position... A Goddard/ Rewoldt partnership could bring the mojo back
kosi doesnt seem to be having the best of times playing in the forward 50 so why not allow him to run around much like last year where he would play all around the ground seemingly when he wanted
we have not seen kosi going back with the pack this year and taking goal saving grabs...
