With 31 kicks for the season in 8 games, what planet is the match committee on! Peter Murphy's "club review" should start at match committee and work out how his selection on 8 separate occasions this year has passed muster.
Notwithstanding the fact that 10,000 people are more likely to turn up tomorrow for the Crows match if Josh Daicos played, our side gains absolutely nothing by playing Blair ever again. Sycophants of 2010, keep your powder dry, we are on the verge of 2018! We are effectively playing with 21 players each time he suits up.
I can guarantee the following shall happen tomorrow:
1. He shall get between 1-3 kicks
2. He shall try and handball to impossible situations 6-10 times
3. He shall lead up 4-6 times thinking he is a key forward target
4. He shall fumble 3-6 times within goal range
5. He shall fall over when in a contested one on one 80% of the time
6. He shall run around and bark instructions at younger players whilst failing to follow said instructions himself
7. He shall jag a lucky goal from somewhere, somehow and some way not by his own creative abilities
8. Said goal shall keep him in for the Roos game
I am not at all trying to be a smart ass or Nostradamus! Merely articulating the last 95 matches he has played.
Trust me the misery shall continue!

| Well at least young Blair is consistent. Consistently woeful. But the match committee sees it differently. No one cares anymore. |

| The trouble is - even the supporters don't care. I have never seen or heard so many die hard supporters so apathetic about our club as they are now. |

Why would you care when Blair gets picked every time. No other team wanted him last year when his manager put him out as the daily special. Why do you think he gets picked when every football expert that I know just laugh when he gets picked again? Why would you pick him. Got me stuffed to the point where I don't care. It is just ridiculous. |

A little misleading... add to that 68 handballs, 36 tackles, 15 marks & 4 goals.

You said "statiscally speaking" ... then, not once, acknowledged the 68 handballs or 36 tackles.
I'm not flying the Blair flag, but your OP is misleading. He averages just over 12 possessions a game, not 4.
