I don't have Crouch but between him and Rockliff, I think this goes to show... If you don't have a good preseason and there are clearly niggles, and ESPECIALLY after injuries the previous year, you just can't go near the guy. Ablett did it to us last year (and still may this year, who knows?), and it's starting to look similar with these guys now. Libba and Wells at least had good preseason and played solid matches in the NAB. Definitely a marker for me for all future starting teams.
I'm definitely running with this motto from now on as well, this week could be a complete write off for me with my mids bench now consisting of Sidebottom, Rocky and Crouch so near on 1.5 mil sitting on the pine between 3 players.I have already traded out Gresham and Steele to get in Papley and Kennedy. It hurts...
