    Whilst I agree with you, we must remember Lewis has just turned 19 and played in his 9th game.

      Bankers - Marcus - He's such an exciting player because you can play him anywhere. I'd be so jealous if he played for anyone else. He's as agile and quick as a smaller player, to spin and snap, or can be the get-out-of jail marking option for the long bomb into the 50.

      Jack - Massive possession count and really can damage with it as well.

      The Lions - At least they put on a bit of a contest and have improved. As much as I love winning, I hate having teams that can't compete. It's entertainment after all.

      Anchors - Anyone with less than two tackles really.

        Don't play him then. Play Roberts who is strong in the contest. You can do more harm than good by continuing to play Young. Some of his contests at the moment are very ordinary. He doesn't appear ready for the contact side of the game.

          As long as Roberts deserves his spot, I agree. Young played some good footy at VFL level and got his opportunity. Bevo rewards players if they show something.

            One of the issues with Fletch is that he is horrible in the contest.
