    Is he though? Constantly in and out of the team.

    A fairly strong team mind you, plus a couple of the games he missed were through injury, I'd suspect he'd be in our best side if he was playing the same way for us this year.

    In and out of a very strong side. 8 games this season is more than what Grant has achieved in a struggling side. Josh Hill is another that struggled to respond to the message he was getting and yet is doing OK at the Eagles. Perhaps he has got the message now.

    The point I'm trying to make is blaming the coach for the form of a player is very simplistic.
    If Grants form at Williamstown was better maybe I could buy into what BAD is saying but Grant is making it very easy for the MC to ignore him.

    I agree that you cant just blame a coach / MC however in a season where we have tried 37 out of a possible 42? players surely Grant hasn't been that bad?

    Dicked around doesn't mean blaming the coach for his form.

    Anyway, I have said enough about Grant and giving him a go.
