In any case, if you think the competition is not good enough for our 1st year players, then it would be even worse for out second year players, and even worse for 4th year players like COR. It doesn't make sense to play Blakey in the side and leave out COR, or Melican, for that matter. These guys really need AFL games in them, because they need the game to start feeling comfortable in the AFL; get used to the pace, etc. We know they belong in the AFL when playing in good form.
