Kidwell is a liability

I am not sure that David Kidwell warrants a position in our team. For me he is a liability in two areas.

Kidwell misses too many tackles, especially ones that end up in tries being scored by the opposition. Last night he missed 5 tackles and he was involved in poor defense on at least two occassions when the Sharks scored.

Kidwell gives away too many penalties with his niggling tactics when tackling an opposing player. He likes to either have his hand all over the ball trying to force it out or he lays all over the tackles player. The referees know what he is up to and penalise him.

I like Kidwell's aggression, but that's seemingly all he's got and it's just not enough.

Pettybourne matches the aggression and brings genuine impact with him.

I agree that the referees are well onto DK's shenanigans and he will NEVER get away with any of the stuff that he seemingly just can't help himself but do.

Right now it's an easy swap for DK and Greenfield ... still not a fan of Jaiman Lowe, but he's going better than he ever has. Shrug.

JLo's been having a go this year. Id love to see him 100% fit.

DK is still a big match player, great team player and has still has some tricks and experience.

We discussed that at the members bar last night. A few of the First Grade players are living on borrowed time atm.

Up until Friday, Frog was seen as not as not pulling his weight. Closely followed by JLO, McPherson and Aso himself wasnt going as hard as we wanted.

Tyrell and Greenfeild were highly thought of.
