I just think Thornton is getting stale playing at FB...
we should try Lance there for a dozen games... (considering some people think hes such a great player).. and we can get T Bird to go out and play on the third forward for a bit across half back.. allow T Bird to run abit .., get the odd mark uncontested from Lappin or Stevo passes.. and just 'control' the centre corridor and push his half forward flanker to the boundary..
Make no mistake!!! T Bird has had it hard for 3/4 years.. playing a role he really shouldnt have to play week in week out for years since he was 18.

Agreed Its pathetic only having one key Defender in the team.
It seems like if thornton has a shocker the team has a shocker.
Yes he is an important player but we cant rely on one player ewvery week, he needs help from the others. Hopefully Hartlett/ Bower can establish himself as a 2nd key backmen. Livo i think needs to take 2 steps up and once that is achieved we can throw Thornton up the ground!
