Been trying to wrap my head around the whole Wakeham thing as it doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me not even having him in the squad.And that’s the thing - despite the break and with the 50 game development target, what was the reason - injury? disciplinary?
In the presser there were questions about Foz but none about Wakeham.
Without venturing near the landmine of ‘defending Pay’ again - to me there simply has to be reason he was not there other than coaching incompetence. So going to be very interesting to see who partners Foz (assuming availability) for Round 4 given last nights result.
As for Averillo - looks like he can play anywhere in the backline and that should probably be the focus assuming Foz/Wakeham availability for halves as no-one in the back five is currently travelling particularly well...
Realise people want to cry out incompetance, but that doesn't cut it for me. Know that Pay isn't doing great now, but he dropped Lewis last game and had Wakeham there so there hasn't be more to it than that.
Perhaps he's trying to send a signal to Wakeham after signings his extension that he's still gotta earn his spot? I really don't know personally, because even that's a little strange considering he put Cogger and Lewis in front of him and they've done anything but prove that they deserve the spot.
