Re: Tambling [Merged]
Leysy will re-iterate his long standing view that Richie is not underperforming.
He is simply playing to his potential. At a groung like the SCG that is tight & time/space is at a premium he will always struggle.
Natural football instincts are rarely learned, he is yet another case in point.
He will be far better suited this sunday against a Melbourne side that wont apply the same pressure on a ground that suits him better. He could well play a good game.
But asking him to step up & be counted in a tight pressure cooker game is something that leysy has always thought is beyond him unfortunately.
