Play Jesee Smith as a forward in the 2s

Post: # 923417Post saint58 »

While Jessee Smith is returning to football and playing for sandy , play him as a forward he may do ok and it may be prudent in the coming weeks.

Why would they do that. He is a backman and also coming back from injury and the backline is the best place to play to get your confidence.

If he is a backman why play him forward?

Just because Riewoldt is out it does not mean that everyone and everything has to become a forward.

Oh, it doesn't? Hmmm. Somebody should tell Ross. I don't think he realises that yet... :wink:

currently we have a nice group of forwards developing at sandy in archer, cahill, lynch, stanley etc. Already heyne has got the call up and stanley is very close. Add sautner and it's already a full forward line at present.

Interested in how he goes in his second game back. Run out the game and the second half of 2010 looks good for him

No, you are all wrong.

We need to panic and put a backman who has been out of the game for two years up forward in only his second game back because...well...just because.....

Honestly this threads by the Op are based on extreme ignorance. This one is just silly, the Stanley one incredibly lacking in current knowledge.

People see a raw big fella in a practice match or two three months ago and think they should be straight into the seniors.

A wee bit embarrassing to be making these foolish statements.


Lance or James??
