    You might be right... It just seems like mixed messaging to me.

    He will end up like Caleb Daniel with no best position because the coaches can't decide where they want him.

    I can also completely understand why Edge put him forward, and respect that it was the right coaching move for his team on that day - but was it the right move for Buku's AFL career?

        It was an old problem when sides were integrated with VFL teams . The VFL coach plays for a premiership or plays best for the player to play AFL.
        Damned if he did either.

            Montgomerie has quit the club to return to the SANFL, wasn't getting a game and our defensive stocks are shockingly healthy.

                Understandable. Better off back with family playing in his own state.

                    I thought he did well in the preseason games and from memory we had to ruck him (back-up) in one of the games.
                    A somewhat healthy list when compared to our struggles last year has meant opportunities have dried up for him.
