I don't agree with you at all there, he has been vital to many of the games we have picked up points from.

  • Newcastle Away - scored the first 2 goals in a 3-0 win.
  • Perth Away - scored the equalising goal in a 1-1 draw.
  • WSW home - scored the goal in a 1-0 win.
  • Heart home - scored the equalising goal and the winning goal in a 3-2 win
  • Perth home - scored the winning goal in a 1-0 win.

Of our 5 wins this season, Brockie has been a vital part of 4 of them, so I have no idea how you can think that he hasn't popped up when we need him the most.



jeez those facts can get in the way of a good ol' prejudice lols

 While not happy with Brockies overall work rate i dont see any body else scoring at the same rate as him.Also not so sure about Ifills scoring record from last season being as important as you may think.

If he's our Smeltz we need him match in match out. But yes those were good games- he seems to be much more in the Smeltz role, plus despite his size he's really good in the air at getting headers on target and into hard to save areas. But the delivery he's getting isn't from the early Lochhead/Daniel variety.
