    100%. I look at Harmes and I see a player with obvious limitations but I also see a personality type that will not drop their head when we turn to shit. He's actually one player that will give a shit when we are 4 goals down and we need as many players like that as we can get.
    But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

      I heard from someone who was really connected to the playing group that Dunkley had a genuine dislike for Bevo.

        I get your point but not sure that's something you can build a framework or process around.
        It does indicate we weren't far off despite all the disappointment of the year.
        If you had managed to convince Marra to kick straighter it might have been the difference

          I like this take.

          I don't hate the trade, but I'm not inspired by it. But he at least has a bit of grit about him.

          Anyway it's a moot point. He's one of us now and I'll get behind him.

              I've warmed to the trade, he has some traits we don't have a lot of and if he can stay fit he should be a regular senior player for us.
