Wont hurt teams if he is running around the 50% eft like he was this year.

Most inside mids have similar numbers, for obvious reasons. But yeah, we need to give him space

How long do crows fans think Thommo has left?
I think Thommo is slowing down a bit and may need to send less time in the middle. I've been wondering how he would go at half-back or in a forward pocket.

I think he plays in the mids or not at all. Ive heard a few people say he is 'slowing down' yet his stats would say he is still winning his fair share of the footy.......

You could sam the same about Boyd. Both on ageing legs, but rack up the numbers because they are smart footballers and run angles well to get to packs.

His stats are quite good FS, but i think Thommo gets exposed on the defensive side. IIRC, Priddis played h2h on Thommo last year, and killed him on the rebound, as Thommo IMO, doesnt have a big enough tank to sustain 2 way footy for an entire game.

Yep your probably right there Valleys no arguement on the 2 way running. If we didnt turn the footy over so much as a side it probably wouldnt be so bad, but while we kick at 50% it will certainly help the mid puch FWD and expose that.
I reckon we held on to Luke for too long and he probably lost confidence whilst not getting a game. Had some talent but was too slow on the quicker smaller fowards and not strong enough for the big power fowards
The death penalty can never be excused as it allows a state a means by which it can pick and choose who is fit to live and who isnt

Yeah he just wasn't the right type of athlete for afl level. Will go back and dominate sanfl on the smaller tall forwards
