I'm not talking about anyone in particular. What I'm saying is that over the past couple of years, while we have put up with his sub standard performance, there have been numerous players slide by in drafts etc. We seem to dream about Rocca one day pulling his finger out, rather than blooding a new forward. Cloke will one day be better than Rocca ever was. There are also a few yongsters at Collingwood who deserve a try. Our forward line worked well a couple of weeks ago without Rocca. It seems tha including him in the side can be to our detriment.
Unless you have a dominant full forward, such as Brown or Franklin, then you may as well not play a big full forward. Let the fast small forwards run riot and see what happens. Didak, Davis, Medhurst. Great to watch.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not a Rocca hater. I think he's an excellent forward when he's on song. He's just been hot and cold for so long. I don't think we can rely on him.
