Steven is an A grader and would play at every side in the AFL. Armo is now a B+ and would play in most sides in the AFL. The rest are young or just not good enough. The very reason we are struggling.
Agree, these threads are hilarious

Gets his hands on the ball a lot, but his poor disposal is costing his performance and reputation dearly.

A great trier and contributor for us, but not elite. Unfortunately, I can't see much improvement in his skills, after so many years in the game.

We need to delist Steven and put him in a package with a delisted mCCartin and Billings.

Maybe we can get Jimmy Gwilt back for the three of them.

No you don't understand, Steven needs to be delisted, ASAP, today would be preferable. Him and that bust McCartin, and that skillless Billings.

Goddard should be delisted also. Cant even get a game in the worst team in the League. And the less said about McKenzie the better.

What we need to do is draft 18 y.o.s out of the TAC who have had at least three or four AFL preseasons and have played at least 50 AFL games.

What are our recruiters thinking

plugger66 wrote:Amazing thread. Firstly Jack isn't in control of what he receives. If he gets paid big money its because either the club think he is worth it or we just need to get to 95% and he is now our best player so he gets the most. Most would be overpaid at our club anyway but lets just look at the four games this year to see how he is going.
This why BJ and Dal should still be there and now (because they aren't) we should get a free agent.
Ideally bring someone in with some leadership as well as skill.
We have to pay someone.

I think our recruiters are thinking about recruiting A grade midfielders right now

Let's be honest. Steven is 1 of 2 only 'good' experienced mids we have. He is a scrapper. Never the
clean/classy disposal of ablett, Harvey or pendlebury. Steven is more of a Dane swan.

I would say Lenny Hays is a much better player than Steven, doesn't have speed.
But gee Hays is clean, classy, strong and make things happen.

Yep if he is only like Swan he is struggling. And yep he isn't Hayes but Hayes was just voted our 6th best player ever by our historian.

Steven is also playing as one of our 2 main drivers, he gets the pressure of being minded every week. I just look at how Joey is struggling with having lost Lenny and Dal out of the midfield. It puts pressure back on him where he used to be able to get free and cause havoc once. Jack would have time and space if we had a couple more high grade mids along side him. Skills improve with more space and time.

Steven is probably in the top 40 mids in the league.

This is my prophecy.
