The Elephant in the Room...

[Guest]

Neither games have been set up for him, ideally you want him to come on when we've established some dominance. Last week we were on the back foot all second half and this week the game was in the balance for nearly all of the 2nd half.

The thing with Watson is he does have errors in him and we can only really afford those errors when we're on top.

So that is ok for some and not others?

Good post. I was thinking the same thing. The stupid pass when we were under enormous pressure reeked of someone trying to make an impression with limited time on the field. It really is an elephant in the room.

I thought he was talking about Boogies partner

I think it is important to remember we are only 2 rounds into the season and that these thing will take time to work out.

The big three pluses for me are:
1) Latrell Toups combo
2) Keary Pearce combo
3) Matterson finding his place in the team
4) Tetevano now pushing for a bench spot and showing what impact we should be having off the bench

5. You can't count.

Mitchell came into this level with all the fanfare of the next GI and though he showed some glimpses of talent, he had some shockers last year but Robbo persisted with him. Now 12 months in first grade look at his improvement. Watson has to be exposed to 1st grade as much as possible. Last year he showed glimpses of great things to come. The more time he gets, the more confidence he'll gain. I still feel he should have played last week against a weaker defense. We have to be patient because we know he's talented and that means that other players have to also support him. Perhaps with the big teams, he should be asked to seat it out.

Don't chuck all the toys out of the pram yet it's only Round 2.

I tried my best though, you can't knock that.

Friend can not play 80 minutes effectively. He gets exhausted in the last 10 min of each half.

Watson needs to have the 10 min before half time and first 10 of second. Then Jake can run out the game.

6. You did and no-one can ask more than that.

7. I personally expect more from top_joe, I want to see a greater commitment to numerical integrity
