Needs a rest I think.
5 possessions that quarter and got back into it a bit.
I said he needed a rest (managed) earlier in the week and got shot down
Why do you think he needs a rest?
First year player, played a bunch of games in a row. It’s rough aerobically and physically I’m sure. Give him a week or two off and then get him back.
So you think he needs a break? As opposed to him needing to be dropped?

Just saw him chasing and it was like he had concrete buckets on his feet

To clarify - I am suggesting he be dropped (managed). Not sure if you’re winding me up or I wasn’t clear.

Not all trying to work you up. Just curious.

I respectfully disagree.

Yes, but still putting in, and getting quite a bit of it this quarter.

Well a win is a win, unless we want high draft picks but we definitely dont because beating piss poor last place teams give the young fellas huge balls they can use for years to come.

They haven’t done anything legitimate since the draft came in.

Love it.

There are positives out of tonight. Marshall if fit should now play each game. Hickey is a better player than longer even though longer is a better tap mark
Bailey rice talk about seizing your opportunity. He was really good tonight. Still missing mid field pace and Richmond will ram that home next week but there is a big bright light shining about our future.
