No argument about the week off but as sure as hell, we will miss Flossy's hardness next week as I don't se anyone else on our list that can fill his spot the way he does

Agree on Vlasy, I think Garth will get the call up, well deserved after last weeks game..
 
The more I watch this champ play, the more pissed off I am with his suspension. Playing a great sweeper role for us.

Yep, irreplaceable is Vloss
 
Flossy, our next Captain. Jordan vs LeBron will become Hodge vs Flossy
 
Yep Harry, I’m just gonna say it - Vlastuin can sh!t himself.

I’m not just talking the GF moment. Can be flaky and needs to work it out of his game.

If he can his stocks will rise further. Only knock on him atm.

I disagree strongly with this, one attribute he has in spades is composure under pressure. Always happy when he gets the ball or is in the area. His first game back wasn't great but he was good last week.

If you were stating this about Houli or Ellis I would agree.

Also applies to Houli and Ellis.

I just can’t put Vlastuin in the same ice-cold category as grimes and Astbury.

Even Rance can occasionally fluff it, but that’s rare these days.

For all his many excellent traits, Vlastuin semi-regularly coughs up goals. It comes with the territory of being the interceptor. He is often caught in two minds.

I have no doubt he will improve.

Woah, what? You know he's the bloke with the 1 on his back, right?
 
Had to go to page 14 to find this thread..
Floss was another who has had a pretty average back of the season. That he’s barely been discussed an indication of that.
At the mid way point he looked another candidate for AA but when he got suspended for his elbow in round 13 he seemed to lose momentum. A good player but reckon he’s just about hit his ceiling.
From the same draft Grundy’s trajectory continues to rise though.
