i like how it's evolved into him being retaught basic skills


sheens comment was about ellis' defence and the ability to read it....

perhaps tim sheens could come over here and teach steve menzies & tim smith how to defend too...?

Gaz is that bad that at least 10 clubs was trying to sign him and to be honist i think he his to good for west he deserves a bigger team.

tansey should come back from sydney a better player, but then again mathers came back from the gold coast in a proper state

Good athlete, very raw, but needs to be retaught how to play the game.

Tim Sheens disagrees with you:

"Defensively and offensively he's got a very well-balanced game. He can tackle, he can run and he can offload the ball. He has got all the skill ranges and he's a tough kid to go with that as well."

Probably more due to two dodgy knees, I fancied a healthy Mathers' chances. Purely speculation of course...
