Exactly. Potatoes are a staple diet. We may all prefer a glass of Judd, a slice of Swan, but Potatoes are what we eat, more than Salmon, Sockeye.
Barlow is going to be a great cover for the development of younger, more skilled players.
I don't see what the knock is on a player who doesn't have a fixed position?
In an Injury hit side, it's a huge advantage to have a player of his height who has any kind of tank. Who gives a rats doodle what happened at Sydney? Here and now.
He's not pretty to watch, granted, but he puts that shaggy blonde Melon over the ball and I LIKE IT.
And by the way, after going to the game, watching the guy bust a gut for our club, then you labeling him a dud? Well, celebrate the spud, bud.
in some ways, some more highly skilled players can be worse than spuds. Everitt!
Like buying a chocolate eclair and finding they forgot to put any cream in it.
But a good honest spud. Mash it, boil it or bake it.
The boy from Bega, a cheesy spud yes, but sometimes that's what gets the job done.
So there. Rant over.
