Re: Can Fletcher Roberts bounce back and take a key role in Defence?
SWOOPED ON
Bit like Mitch Honeychurch last offseason.
Fletch is doing the job he's capable of at this level, serving as a no fuss depth type, and that's fine.
He'd be a useful 'in' for a contender wanting an insurance policy for a well-organised, well-performed back six.
Like everyone else he's on a hiding to nothing being asked to pull his weight in our current predicament.

Re: Can Fletcher Roberts bounce back and take a key role in Defence?
The weird thing that I've noticed is that his kicking has gotten much worse in the VFL this season, he was at least always a clever field kick that could hit targets but his kickouts in particular have fallen off.

He was mentioned in the post match press conference this week as a player on the radar to come in FWIW

Yes Bevo said it was out of Trengove or Roberts to come in.

He managed to do one thing a lot of other player didn't do and has a rare medallion to prove it.

Re: Can Fletcher Roberts bounce back and take a key role in Defence?
I hope if Fletch doesn't get another gig in the AFL that he is at least offered a spot at Footscray.
It would be great to have him continue with the club and he would be a great mentor for new players coming into the club. Along with Dale Morris in his development coaching role that would be ideal.
Well done Fletch. Bulldog legend!

He's a quality guy and I agree it would be great if he wanted to play for Footscray
I think Webb 'might' be a chance to stay at Footscray as well but I think Carlton are having a chat to him

Thanks Fletch. Seemed such an un-assuming type.
Unthinkable that he, Hamling and Morris are now all gone... All three stood tall during the most important time for our club.
More of an In Bruges guy?
