    BRE definitely does not have pace, but he has the willingness to chase down a loose ball, particularly in the attacking half.

    I actually think BRE and AOC are pretty good at putting crosses in, but both need to work on diagonal long balls & general pass selection.

    Disagree @borderlescott@borderlescott that POC is worse in the air than BRE. BRE will win headers, but Paudie has dominated forwards in a way BRE never will.

    Potential? He's 28, this is his lot. It's only downhill from here.

    yep i noticed that myself, both in unnecessary areas as well. Always has a tendancy to appear to be "launching himself" even if he isnt. All it takes is a fussy ref and he is off

    I thought he was much better last night than of late. However, as others have alluded to, he always looks like there is a rash challenge in him that could see him sent off

    He's 28 is BRE - as good as he'll ever be. Wasn't Steve Williams earlier 20's when we got him?
