To address your new silly point. I haven't heard you complain about the other 30 players on the Collingwood list who kick less than 0.2 goals per week...... Should everyone who average 0.2 goals or lest be dropped from their team immediately and banned from ever playing AFL footy again. will be a pretty shallow pool of talent if that is the case.
not sure anyone has been arguing that Blair is a star. I dont even think anyone here is arguing he is in Collingwood's best 22. but he is a professional footballer who will eprform whatever role is required of him to the best of his ability and it is good honest football that you get. Given all the injuries that occur in a season (and the terrible form slumps of younger players), a player such as Blair would likely get 5-10 games in a season with nearly every club in the league.
AND to be clear. It is perfectly fine to have such a player on your list of 40 odd players. In fact, he is the perfect guy to have on your list of 40 players. Experienced, ready to perform, team oriented. The perfect back-up player.
Now we just have to hope that the rest of the superstars that we have that you chose not to criticize mercilessly, can actually develop consistency, stay off the drugs, get their bodies in perfect shape and work their asses off so that they can legitimately keep blair OUT OF THE SIDE!
they couldnt do it last year. and of course, that is obviously blair's fault!
