Why do you blokes need all the footballers looking like robots and fitting into a certain shape ?

Rose has been playing well, and as long as he keeps doing that, tbh I couldn't care less what he looks like

Agreed. They must never have seen Beetson, Brohman or Osborne play. They were big, slightly rotund, front rowers.

And ALL very fair Front Rowers...one better than fair!!
 
Also the stats do not back it up (waiting for people to come on and say stats are not the way to judge a performance...)

Simply he is on the ground to get mtrs - for an interchange forward his average mtrs per run are up there with the best


Games Tackles Mtrs Hit Ups Average
Rose 23 354 1920 218 8.80733945
King 16 350 1502 188 7.989361702
Hannatt 17 590 1855 236 7.860169492
Scott 21 531 2427 269 9.022304833
Petro 22 484 2683 317 8.463722397
Cuthbo 18 388 1425 186 7.661290323

Interestingly the "fit" cuthbo has significantly less av mtrs

But yes lets judge a player on how he looks, or how we perceive his "attitude" to be

100% correct it's what he does not what he looks like...fair dinkum it would be like saying Cliffy had to give up his bungers in the 80's...whilst I am a non smoker it never affected him too much did it!!
