Bachar Houli - بشار حولي,

He's shown a lot better than what he has served up this year. He held his own in some tough match-ups last year and gave a lot more besides. Don't see any reason why he can't recapture his form.
 
Our insistence on kicking short in the back half appears to have sapped his confidence a little. Few long running targets that play to his strength. May not be quick enough for a wing, but I think it's time to give it a try.
 
Went to ground and fumbled consistently, frustrating to watch really. Not one of his better games.

Has credit in the bank and will improve on that performance.

Still think he would be much more effective on a wing rather than in defence.
He was tried on the wing in the first couple of games this season. He does not like the contest and this is further exposed on the wing. He needs to learn to win more of his own footy......and I don't think he will. 80% of his disposals are uncontested, which is too high particularly when you are not impacting games.
 
im only concerned in discussing that he doesn't deserve a spot. His one sided left foot kick is overrated, his he plays safe football and refused to absorb contact and retain the footy. I want players willing to bleed for our club.
 
I hope RFC isn't rushing into contract extension talks with Bachar. Great and humble fella that he is, just would like to see him have a better second half of the season than what he has been producing to date before the Club over commits itself ... like it has with a couple of others.
 
Continuing his great form from last years final into this year. Has been shocking all year.
We have a footballer that slips over at every oppounity
One that never goes near a contest and this marshmallow that panic like his playing his 2nd game.
Must be replaced at years end

Is he a Muslim or a hipster?
Can't be a hipster, doesn't have a man bun :vomit, unlike the trendoids at Esserdope. Nor does he roll his own durries.
 
My understanding is that he has groin issues and may need a rest. Effecting his ability to run and carry and see out games.

Just what I have been told.

Unless his groin muscle is connected to his heart muscle, it's *smile*

I think your source may be on the money Sin. Most players run out every week with some form of MSD, Bachar's condition has compromised the style we saw the previous couple of years. We have total faith in the injury management team, not, so we cross our fingers that he doesn't further aggravate the concern.
 
Not many players are fit. Bachar is hampered. It happens. But he's improving overhead. Personal development is good but his attack is sadly missing in the structure of the team.

If Kamdyn McIntosh had developed he could give the mature player a much needed rest. Glamour matters off half-back. Dea is probs in line.
