Blair has perfected the art of looking busy without doing much of anything.
7 possessions tells me he had little influence on the game.
Besides we aren't Hawthorn and can ill afford to waste a spot on a player who's neither a game winner or breaker.
We need to find players with skill and class and importantly can impact the scoreboard most weeks.
We are losing and barely kicking 10 goals a game so it's no time to stick to a formula clearly not working.

When the day comes that he's not in our best 22, that will be a good day, the team will be fit, the kids will be firing, and he may end up like Tarks, watching a team he gave his all for, go all the way without him.
But right now, his grunt, his work ethic, deserves our applause.
He will always be a Collingwood Premiership player.
You cant fix stupid, turns out you cant quarantine it either!

It is a sad reflection that singling out one player each season to be the brunt of so called fans dissatisfaction with the teams ability to satisfy their need to be supreme occurs every year. Who will it be next year. I shudder to think even Pendles or Swan will fit the bill eventually. Thought our motto was side by side. That goes for the good and the bad. It is easy to say this in good times. need to follow through in the harder times. Blair was not the worst player in our team this year. I would go so far as to say he would be in the top half performed of our team this year. I expect to be howled down, but my opinion is my own.
We need to encourage and get behind all of our players. Anyone does better when this is the case.

Good luck to him making 100 games.

But im definitely wrong there.

No. I hate losing. Just saying he is not the cause. He played in the 2010 premiership and I put it to you that he contributed to that win along with the other 21 players that day.thompsoc wrote:You obviously like losing.magirl wrote:It is a sad reflection that singling out one player each season to be the brunt of so called fans dissatisfaction with the teams ability to satisfy their need to be supreme occurs every year.

Re watch the games this year and tell me he was our worst. I challenge you to tell me that. Even if he was, so what. He was out there doing his best because others were not good enough to be on the ground. I an sure that if they were they would have been selected.
Who will be your whipping boy next year?

Blair tries really hard every game. He gives everything. The trouble is
he has no talent. He brings nothing special to the table. He is a good hack
who tries every game and congrats to him for making 100 games.
You mention the 2010 flag but you forgot to mention his dismal effort in 2011.
It really is boring to hear the whipping boy line and the side by side jingle
This is a forum not a mutual admiration society and if I think we are playing hacks
I will spread the word.
