Lucky? He's a second year player learning his trade. He's unlucky not to have played more games given his performances in the seconds, Darknavy. The boy will face a lot of pressure over the next few years, with Blackwell potentially fighting it out for his spot, but for now he's finally been given some game time...
lets not forget that he was last in the team when beaten by Jude Bolton at the Swans, who killed everyone that game.
The lucky one has been Brett Johnson, not AB. And that's all set to change.
2nd year player who turned 20 last month.
Out of 12 games in the reserves this year he has been named in the best 8 times.
A question mark on his pace but he did not look slow on the weekend. Good in the clinches and fed the ball out to Scotland and Stevens and tackled like a demon.
Completely shut Coughlan down when he was on him.
18 possessions, 9 tackles and 10 contested poss from little over half a game says he earnt his position and played his heart out.
