I thought McVeigh was retaining his HB role?

[ubeaut]

Slightly worried he's on ball. He scored better off HB mopping up and rebounding. People assured me the coach said he would retain it. Slightly worried hope he still racks it up.

No one "knew" he would be playing off half back, its all speculation

Ended up not starting him, will get him cheaper later on, but even though I think he should be started the cash I saved allowed me to do other things better for the team

Don't worry ubeaut, he will be a top defender and good pick :)

[ubeaut]

Thanx RD. It's just that I based my selection on his role. Everyone I asked was pretty sure he would play HB. Even the coach said it apparently. (not blaming anyone should have listened to my first thought)

At first I thought it's as simple as R.Shaw returns - he and Eski rebound. Then I over thought it obviously cos it does seem as simple as that. ATM.

Haha SC can b stressful.
He will score well on ball. He will have stints off half back still. Mcveigh is a seagull he will find plenty of it...

Remember Kieran Jack is out hence McVeigh spending more time on the ball today.

On 37 at half time. Hoping for a 85-90ish score.

A bit stiff! 12 disposals, 6 contested and 7 clearances to the half, that could easily be a 45-50 point half!

Dont stress mcveigh will still go 90 odd still having an ok game onky playin on ball cause jacks out

[enzedder]

Disappointing start but gotta stick fat. Early days.

[RaisyDaisy]

Barely any of the Sydney players scored any points in that last qtr so that doesn't help, but def wouldn't be worried

[HotTiges]

Cue price drop

It was the worst game McVeigh has played for a couple of years I wouldn't be too disheartened

Especially for the fact he still managed 82! Cant expect too much when your highest scorer is Laidler for 95... :O
