Well, it would of been nice if he could have tested the theory tonight, at very least

He was not good tonight. Not sure who he is keeping out of the team at this point, so not sure what the point of this thread is. he was last picked because De Goey's tank is empty.
Just out of curiosity, how did Crocker go tonight in a similar role?
what tonight showed me (more than the fact that blair had a bad game), is that without Morroe the three other forwards on our list are basically useless because none of them provide enough to allow our forward line to have any structure. therein lies the problem. As Cloke looks more and more like his punch drunk CHF comrades of the past when they also hit the wall (like Dermott Brereton), it is evident that we are on a straight line trajectory from over reliance on Cloke to over reliance on Moore.
Mind you, I wonder how the forward line looks if Howe, Elliot, Faz and Swan are all fit and playing there?

That "old chestnut" as to who is he keeping out of the side. On that theory who was:
Jordan Russell
Tony Burgess
Jason Wild
John Barnett
Trent Hotton
keeping out of the side in their hey day??? If you play incompetent footballers over a large sample size of games.... you'll get a sample of losses like tonight and this season.

| They say a captain goes down with his ship. Who would have thought Bucks will go down with Blair. I've come across a few inexplicable things in my life, but this one is right up there. |

Agreed! To think that the greatest midfield kick in the last 25 years, Nathan presides over a list that HE has put together over 5 years that is worse than the Tony Shaw era! Who are they:
* Macaffer: 40 meters at best, no left foot
* Treloar: his inside 50 kicks are pathetic and he couldn't even make distance from 45 meters in last quarter
* Langdon: Steve Kernahan "helicopter" revisited
* Blair: can't even get the ball: zero kicks tonight
* Adams: brain fade kicker
* Nathan Brown: 9 iron man. kicked a reverse left foot torpedo tonight
* Marsh: no left side and brain fader
* Greenwood: kicks 8 irons
* Marley: the worst, the worst , the worst
* Cloke: an abomination
* Toovey: 140 games of kicking disgrace
* Maynard: brain fade kick with no right side
* Crocker: inaccurate, can't get the ball
* Gault: lob wedge man
Nathan: you shaped this list, Clarkson would have 2 of these above players on his list at most!!

Pretty handy shot selection for the PGA, just need Cloke as the driver! Not sure who would take the putts though

1 handball to half time. The funny thing was that wasn't the worst. Hampson donuts to half time.
To be fair he played his role. He didn't cough it up 1000 times.

First game in Adelaide vs Port, set shit from 50 into the wind, girl. In GWS a few weeks ago, 45m out, 45 degree angle, goal. Like I said, I'm no fan, but he can kick 45m+.

Lolololol
Well I love Blair, I have a thing for players with no obvious talent that made it through sheer determination and guts. But yes, he was bad tonight, he only had a couple of real goes.
Funny thing, we didn't get trashed and yet we were so mind numbing.y awful to watch! Watching the tiggas drop marks and still keep possession, kick me, why are those loose balls not dived on? He has lost the players. They have no idea how to compute what's in his brain
