Darling may be strong, but heβs the definition of a Tarzan/Jane setup. He is soft as β β β β

Darling is certainly strong, and he is in no way soft.
It never ceases to amaze me how often Blitzers shape a narrative to fit their own particular biases. It is human nature to do so, but this place takes things to levels way beyond the natural.

ok.
βIβve asked to play defence a few times throughout my career and see if I can impact down there too because I did play there a little bit growing up and for school, so I wasnβt too surprised. But I still wasnβt sure where my best footy was until I gave it a go,β he said
Yet another indictment on Worsfold

Thereβs plenty of West Coast supporters that complain about him being soft too. I donβt think thatβs completely fair but i hear it all the time.
He is soft even for a Taekwondo black belt
He wouldnβt know his chicken wings from his pressure points
Darling isnβt soft.
He has dropped some high profile marks at crucial times which stick in the memory.
But his performances go up (not down) when Kennedy and Co are missing and he presents and hits contests all day.
In no way is the bloke soft.
If west coast supporters say he is soft that speaks volumes to west coast supporters.

Heβs not soft but he has a tendency to let big moments get to him, as evident in the 2018 grand final. Iβve seen it in close games too. Still a good player, though.
Woesfold was the worst coach / mentor for the team. Sat on his own (whilst his family was in WA) in his Essendon home for the whole of his tenure and didnβt make any effort to connect with the boys on a personal level - he was there purely for 
and everyone wonders why so many of them wanted to leaveβ:roll_eyes:

love the way he puts his head over the ball. he sometimes even leads with his head to get a free. itβs something u love to see when it goes our way and just goes to show his willingness to put his body on the line for the team and his toughness
