Some calling for Banks to be dropped?
Sat on the pine for two hours.
Subbed on in a pressure cooker with less than five minutes to go.
Had five disposals 3 kicks & 2 handballs at 80%, 2 contested.
2 intercepts.
1 mark.
1 tackle.
6 pressure acts.
Halved a crucial play.
This is what I would hope for from an experienced subbed player (Picket, McIntosh) not a young guy not even sure if he deserves to be there yet.
By comparison, Sonsie had 9 possessions for the entire game, with none in the whole last quarter.
Not bagging Sonsie, just asking what more would you expect Banks to contribute?

Mansell definitely saved him…. He needs to keep his feet and I’m sure he’ll get that feedback and work hard to remedy. I hope it’s just inexperience and not a lack of pace that you so often see in ageing players when they too readily go to ground. I’m not writing him off… still developing.
