He isnt going to mark them all lace out.. Given that most AFL defenders are actually good players - there arent many easy marks at this level.Linton Lodger wrote:Terrible movement of the football into the forward 50 & a couple of dropped marks have nothing to do with fitness. Judge him when the midfield actually kick it to his advantage most of the time.
I watched the replay carefully. His lack of effort was hard to believe at times. Sometimes within 3 metres of the ball he would just stand there watching. No interest or effort to get involved in any way. But he can tackle or vaguely pressure or try and do something when the ball is in dispute.
Mainly he is just a spectator.
I think we even threw Carlisle fwd at one stage because Paddy was basically a non factor.
