Message: [QUOTE="WASSHHH, post: 3066682, member: 9424"] I don’t get all the disdain for Bird that’s springing up of late, talk about how it would be good if he left. The bloke arrived injured, came back too early and then got injured again. Sure, on that alone, he had a pretty poor first season, but it is what it is. He then got back to full fitness in the offseason and was playing tough, strong footy (one of the only ones at the time I might add) until he got an injury that literally any player could get at any time. Before his injury, he was one of our best and showing why he is an asset to any team. It’s undoubtedly true that we haven’t got much actual game time out of him, but what do people expect when he’s injured. It’s not like he was kicking stones and had been dropped to reserve grade to pick up his act. I actually froth at the idea of either: Bird and Staggs in the centres or Bird at fullback - I’m undecided. But what I do know, is add Bird to this team and we’d be scoring more points and winning more games simply because he is a footballer and a competitor. We aren’t that far off and I genuinely believe he would play a major role in this team playing better football. [/QUOTE]
