Well for all the ravings that everyone has on the kid, he simply is not a DM. He played at Birkenhead and Waitakere as a left half and because OM play him as a DM, he is hailed as the saviour of our DM issues before he kicks a ball in that position. He is a better LB than DM. He has no positional awareness for the role he is meant to be playing so what the hell does he do at OM? I get that players can have a bad game but he is just showing absolute ZERO about himself in that role. I don't think Payne any better but he will at least stand in that hole in front of Durante. Dan Keat anyone? Jesus Christie would do a better job (exageration)
Killen? Clapham even
Shame Chris Bale was never motivated to put his hand up for the AW's. Shame Adam Thomas never grew his potential.
