Call me a pessimist, but I still think our midfield will suck this year and I am sceptical of the players who in most people's opinion are going to help get us out of the mire we have been in for the last five years (we did ok with a prime Knights, Broderick, Campbell, but even then we lacked a quality ruckman).
Kane Johnson: Nothing he has done so far in his career has struck me as exceptional. And when you have guys like McCleod, Ricciuto and Goodwin taking the tags week in week out and you still dont star in the midfield, that suggests that he will struggle when he becomes the hunted at tigerland.
Justin Blumfield: this dude makes Wayne Campbell look like Glenn Archer. i have never seen a bigger pussy in my life. Maybe he can be of some value up forward, or possibly on the wing, but dont expect him to do too much more than all the other pussies at richmond. However, his disposal is pretty good, i'll give him that much. Better than clowns like Fiora and Tivendale who never look up the field and just bang it forward after being exhausted from doing the sprint of their lives with the ball.
And then there is Duncan Kellaway, Clinton King, Mathew Rogers, Adam Houlihan and Kayne Pettifer. I wont even start. Just dont expect to get anywhere this year if these guys are still good enough to get a game.
Which leaves Coughlan, Campbell and Bowden. I think these players should be our starting line up in the center with Ottens. The only reason Johnson should play in the middle is if Campbell is getting double teamed, which often happens. As for him being an improvement on Campbell, Bowden or Coughlan as a midfielder, thats a crock of *smile*. At best he can be a foil so that Wayne is freed up down back.
