Re: Time to elevate Arnot?

Why is it that as soon as any player gets a twinge we want then placed on LTI list and rookie player upgraded? Surely we have blokes like Lennon, Knights, Astbury, Conca & Dea ( both I know currently injured), Vickery, McBean, McDonough plus this years recruits that would be more ready to come in than blokes that the club has demoted (Arnot) or not had a preseason (Thomas) . We don't have to promote a rookie just because we can.

You reckon being out for 3 months is a twinge? Someone's gotta be upgraded at least in Petterd's place.

Ok I acknowledge its not just a twinge but why do we have to upgrade someone if they're not going to play. Only means we have to pay that person a senior list wages rather than rookie wage.

No not saying that at all, Clearly saying Arnot for Morris gives us less as at least Morris gets to the contest, maybe if we were having a stationary arm wrestle Arnots would be a better choice.

If you think Morris getting to the contest a second or 2 late is getting to the contest!! Thats why he barely registered a tackle at the weekend as the ball was being disposed of before he even got to the contest.

read the post we were comparing Arnot and Morris only, nothing more, nothing less. But turn it into something its not by all means

I would have preferred Thomas over Arnot as he plays well in the wet as we enter winter... Im not a Thomas fan but he is a hard body accumulator that can play in the wet
 
Re: Time to elevate Arnot?

After watching him last week, I'm staggered. Did not hit one target.

Certainly be from left field spook. Pure role play if he gets picked.
If he breaks Vince's ribs at the first bounce I guess it's ok.
 
Re: Time to elevate Arnot?

Good luck to Biscuit
Play him in the guts let the wrecking ball loose on the Demons
 
Re: Time to elevate Arnot?

Go get them Matt. Hope you play a hard, tough game And contributE to our win. Well done
 
Re: Time to elevate Arnot?

We know Matt is tough enough but the doubt is at the skills level. He is in last chance saloon so I hope he plays a blinder and prove us doubters wrong.
