Not sure which quote you mean for me to click on. Could you quote it for me please.

thejinx said:Really? Seemed pretty obvious to me. What is your opinion on why McBean isn't being selected then?
To me (and others it seems) it reads that your argument is that McBean needs to perform in the reserves in the now (past performances are irrelevant) to earn a spot in the senior team.
My response to your argument was to show you a number of scenarios with other young players where that hasn't been the case.
Chelsea said:Hi thejinx,
My opinion FWIW is that McBean should not need top form in the reserves to get a gig as Vickery doesn't need top form to stay in the seniors to begin with.
It's time to test some of these players out and chop the one's who have had multiple chances and simply not delivered over and over again.
That's my two cents worth.

yeah I think Rosy should let this one go. Reminds me of the beatings I used to give Redford.Leysy Days said:Think Jinx has hooked one.

Liam McBean
19 disposals, two goals, five marks, three clearances
Played one of his most consistent games for the year. He had 19 disposals and ended up with five marks, plus 2.2, but he gave away three others directly through handball or unselfish play. He’s starting to work like an AFL footballer and he looks ready for an AFL opportunity if it presents.
Oh FFS. Why would anyone put a rider like this on a player report when the seniors n especially a key forward are going so poorly?Smoking Aces said:Release McBean.....it's happening people!!!

Finals are *smile*ed, there's senior players giving us bugger all at the moment. Pull the finger out of the clacker n throw a bunch of senior positions open to the magoos n youngsters brave enough to demand them by showing some form. It's *smile*g easy now, not rocket science n doesn't need to be equivocated over.
Beanie, done well give him a senior game.
George, done well give him a senior game.
Daniel R, done well give him a senior game.
We could easily fudge a reason to throw a game or two at Markov, Drummond n C Moore in coming weeks if we wanted too. There's enough just marking time in the seniors that could do with a freshen up on the early shift.

The shackles of his early career will be forgotten soon.
I can see him matching Jack's goal and assist average.
Superstar.

rosy3 said:Hope you're correct. I notice the shift from is to will be. Fingers crossed you're more accurate about the future than some have been about the past. Hopefully the extra developmont has done him good.
Eat 'em Alive big fella.
