    Bloody consistent Doesn't get the accolades of some midfielders, but he is a gun. He does frustrate me with his first option to look back instead of forward.

      I'd think for a coach that being able to lock those numbers in every week and be able to know Jack is going to give them to you must be priceless. Imagine if we could depend on one of the forwards to deliver 3 goals or more a game? That's the difference between winning and losing most matches.
      They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

              His emergence as a genuine midfield option has given Bevo the ability to move Bont forward for longer periods of time, which has been pretty critical the past month.

              Imagine adding another A-Grade mid to the mix (hello Josh Kelly!) and letting Bont become the best CHF in the game.

                    That's got to be a career best for career bests.

                    I'm starting to come round to the Bont tall forward idea. Imagine the panic him and Stringer together would cause defenders in the vicinity of the ball?

                                It was the most teammate Bonti has ever carried off the ground for one.
