Totally agree Q. I watched him at Westminster a couple of times and wow! Very sneaky how we drafted him too so I thought he'd be a champ for us.

reckon being injured all the time is slightly different to being a wasted talent. sylvia is a perfect example really. was really a top shelf midfielder/forward for that season or so where he actually wasnt lazy.
