Rewatched the first 45 minutes of the game. In hindsight, possibly was harsh on Green. If he’d got a free kick as he should have for that high contact he’d have had a decent period. He’d have had a direct assist, maybe a goal if he kicks straight and a number of “nearly” pieces of play (once he got free in the pocket and was targeted but McKernan lead his man to the same spot, and one beautiful bit of play on the wing where he beat his man, gave off, led forward and Bags handballed behind him).
I believe Green was pretty forgettable after that point, but was it also when he got injured? In which case he might have an excuse.
Just copied this over from the Colyer thread. Whenever he’s played VFL this year, he’s been pretty dominant. Should we be playing him more up the ground at AFL level? What’s role is he actually doing at VFL level when he’s getting these numbers?
Josh Green delisted. Let slip in the interview with the reserves coach regarding team selection on the bombers website (last 30seconds of the video). Ooopsss
Hard to be an Oops if it’s a video on the Bombers website, … it’s not like it was a live stream, so it’s hard to imagine the coach camera person interviewer, etc etc, didn’t realise it had happened.
Or else we have some fairly inept Editors/IT crew.
Yeah he said older statesmen like Josh Green and Jerret who might be playing their last game in the red and black. Not definitive that he has been delisted.
I reckon the club would have preferred to make an announcement as opposed to the last 15 seconds of an interview with the VFL coach about team selection. It’s either a slip up or disrespectful.
