I got he stays he's a good right centre apart from the odd brain fart.
What players don’t have brain farts now and again.
All do but some have less.

Millo might have 2 a season but he's involved much more and doesn't have anywhere near the suspensions. The same stands for watts, macca, oggy, massey etc...
Forwards arnt constantly taking high balls in glaring sunshine or howling winds.

Ok. How many does clare drop or Evalds or Olpherts or Shenton. How many suspensions have they had, I'll tell you its less when all added together.

I wasn't having a go at peanut. Just making a point. I think it's the only part of his game he could get better at.

Not having a go at you mart either.
Percentage rate is higher for a winger than a forward.
Clare is a decent catcher.
Evalds not see enough to comment, though against Leeds I think it was, he failed to compete one on one were Leeds scored.
Shenny I don’t think takes to many high balls.
Olpherts seems ok, seen him drop a couple.

When peanut was full back I can’t recall him dropping one.was just his chiming in the line that he struggled with

Tbf I didn’t mention matautia.
Centres as with shenny very rarely catch high balls.
It’s usually wingers or full backs.

With you replying to a thread on pete I understood it was about him.

Anyway it's turned into a lovely day again.

By and large but don't forget Shenny and Turner have been chopping and changing with both taking high balls so far this season.

When Pete was fullback at Leigh he did a fair bit of dropping the ball haha!! Looked like a world beater in that league for his short stint but yeah. He was a good old dropper haha
All coaching is, is taking a player where he can't take himself.
