Another great job on the weekend in tandem with Rutten to shut down Fev. That 1 week after doing a great job on Pavlich. And that 1 week after doing OK on Franklin (Franklin still won on the day I admit).

Neil Craig predicted last year that Bocky could become one of the elite CHB's in the comp and he seems to be heading down that path.

When his name is mentioned alongside the great defenders in the comp there's sniggers from non-Crows people but he's got himself in the squad for the All-Stars I see.

Keep it up!

I'm worried though, Craig keeps going on about how he'll go forward at some stage this year. For crying out loud, if you've got a key defender that's where you play him, defence!

He's a gun though and should be an AA.

Wouldn't call him a dud forward, an average one more like it. Has had 14 games where he's kicked multiple goals.

Yeah dud may be a fraction harsh, but to me he's not an option for the crows up forward, he played some quite ordinary games at CHF in his early days, he doesn't appear to have the same instincts as a forward that he does for a defender.

I said it last season and will say it again. Hes a great CHB. But compared to that hes a S*** forward. When he is at CHB the crows look much better.
Read my reply. It is directed at you because you have double standards
