Can't agree, Cordy has copped plenty of heat on here.

Naughton was scragged every time the ball went into tyhe forward line, but no frees as there was a pack around him. Lions stopped him from jumping many times.
That was the difference in the forward lines. Their forwards ran away from Hipwood. At times (on the TV) it looked like he and Gardner were the only ones there.

I thought the one early where he stumbled and headbutted Gardner's arm was very harsh. Defenders need to be able to engage.

Is Gardner? He looked significantly shorter than Hipwood. Was he a backman at Footscray? Someone told me he kicked 5 goals in a VFL match.

Re: Always Right Match Committee - Round 12 Vs Adelaide 2020
Cordy’s copped it on here
I’m sure nobodies ever been missed
Had a good patch after a dodgy start , but he’s not the number one key back
He’s not strong enough in one on ones .

Can he play the role as number 2 key back?
If he can't then what's his role?
Like our forward line our defence has too many 'like' players and it's effecting our performance.

I’ve thought Cordy’s been really solid since he got back in.

Both I believe Danjul but I'm pretty sure when we drafted him he was playing more forward and didn't we play him forward when he got the call up? Either way he's clearly not up to it and shouldn't be back into the squad. 6 games to try someone else or something different, cut our losses and move forward.

Same here. He seems to have blended in nicely with Keath.

Yeah, defensively he was ok. Gave us nothing in the air or by foot and hasn't for weeks.
Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

His hands have deserted him since the North game. Even in dry conditions.
