How’d he earn his spot last year
As a general forward he averaged 4 kicks and Hal a goal per game?
Get real man!!!

Re: Phillipou
This is half the problem. There’s this perception perpetuated that somehow he deserved his spot last year. After 6 games he was a liability. His form after RD 6 was no different to how he’s played this year. He was gifted games pure and simple in the hope that he would magically just become this brilliant player. All we had to do was play him in the ones. If only developing players was that simpleOtiman wrote: ↑Mon 27 May 2024 6:17pmHe earned somewhere between 18 and 20 games last year but there were times where he clearly needed to be managed.The G Train Legacy wrote: ↑Mon 27 May 2024 2:37pm Don't know about the fast tracking. Contrary to what many may say, he earned his spot last year. Then he had a spot this year based on last year (same as Sharman), which he held for longer because of injuries. He'll now no doubt spend a few weeks at Sandy.
I feel like we set him up to fail for his own good this year, to show him how much improvement is required.
