He behind the scenes must have done something wrong. It seems some can play to a certain standard & get selected each week & yet others have different sets of rules. Tell me who would prefer say Taylor Hunt in the team turning it over off half back , or a young kid given a decent run at it in the forward line ?

Another example of non-existent/poor/lack of junior player development.
When you having a coach and his assistants who prefer hacks like Hunt, Moore, etc, then you get exactly the
situation you have at Punt Road.
Or maybe a situation where a kid thinks he's ten times better than he is and point blank refuses to do the hard yards.
Picks and chooses when he's gunna go and not gunna go and whines when he doesn't get games served up on a plate.
This guy can kick and take a mark, gets round the park like my granny in a wheel chair and is soft.
Poor recruiting is one thing, superiority complex and sense of intitlement is another thing all together.

So many psychological warriors on PRE at the moment. People who can look into a players mental makeup and write them off from these observations.
I find it interesting that so many of our players have failed to develop let alone surpass expectation yet some can still ignore the vagaries of the way our players are managed.
There has been no clear boundary on what you need to continue to do to get a solid run in the firsts once the breakthrough has been made. To have a good game in the firsts then be slapped down by another player who does "something" the coaches want in the seconds and replaced by Mondays training run.
Lets see if a change in management philosophy cannot get a player to appear a little more mentality tougher. It cannot hurt to try.

This kid is a great mark, has sticky hands. If fit during the year, would of made a great impact or the side. Hard to match against as a third or fourth forward.

Don't necessary disagree Mappa. However, all such flaws should clearly be identified through the recruitment process.
