showed good desperation to save a couple of goals tonight. Took the game on where he could. There is worse players

That is his best quality, takes the game on, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesnāt. Eliminate a few of those turnovers and his value to the team will increase dramatically. Still reckon his best value would be as the sub, where his fresh legs and pace would be a factor.

Agree, he would be a good sub for the vfl team
Well that is a first for you.
Did some good things and some bad. He is a hard player to like with his carry on.
Merrett laid that game winning tackle on Dusty, by sprinting past Hind, who was kind of jogging in Dustyās general direction, sort of.
Itās a pity Hind doesnāt use his elite speed defensively.

I mean. He used it pretty well defensively to save 2 goals.
But I donāt know why Iām arguing, I donāt actually disagree with you. He could do far more with his defensive running

I dunno if they drop him before, but he makes way for Tsatas when Elijah is fit.
Longterm I hope they swing Wanganeen into the backline because heād be able to take the game on whilst having a bit more flash with ball in hand.

He was more than decent against the Tigers - yes a couple of turnovers - but he was crucial late where he saved a couple of goals. I feel like he is building his confidence and form back - Iād drop others in our current 22 before him - if we can get him back into 2021/early 2022 form heās a valuable asset with his speed and run a point of difference

At half time I had him as the player most deserving of being subbed out, but he redeemed himself during the third, especially with the lunge on the siren. Unless he finds better form though, heāll be in the 2s when we get a few back.
Loved it when he left Cotchin floundering and ran ahead of Redman as a release. Fortuitously Mason said leave it with me.

Itās difficult to justify the angst against Hind. He played well, though a few errrors, played with courage, and tackled well. Also had 23 possessions and 6 tackles. You donāt dump players like that unless you can replace him with someone better, faster and more productive. And thatās not on our list - yet.

Not when going for THAT mark, he ā ā ā ā his pants.
That what annoys supporters, itās not his skill errors or whatever, itās the short steps when itās his turn to go, or in last nightās game, taking your eyes off the ball and missing a straightforward chest mark, cause he thought he was going to be cleaned up.

This is the key thing. Clearly lacking in confidence /clarity and it impacts in decision making, skill etc. Heās opting to kick when heās probably better off carrying the footy, and vice versa. Iāve thought for a while that he hasnāt yet settled on the role and how it works in totality with Redman , McGrath etc. He certainly still has some tools we need. Just not finding real form - as yet.

I donāt mind a few clangers when we are taking rye game on, itās the ones under no pressure that are the worst . nick was better last night. until we get other players back in he stays. he has a good opportunity for the next month to work it out
