He played consistent football in the SANFL. There’s no reason he can’t do it in the AFL. Even his stats in the AFL indicate he knows how to get the football. I think the main issue with him is the same issue you get with a lot of players of his height and build. You only play 4-5 at most, of them in the same team. He’s not a running intercept defender like Darcy Moore and I assume having not watched a lot of Adelaide that Adelaide prefer a Lever type defender to the strong bullocking type defender Frampton is.

The mentality to let Roughy go amazed me. Sometimes, when looking for the next star of the game, clubs pick on the wrong player, cut their nose off despite their face.
To me clearly Roughy was quite average up forward, but as a backman, he was very dependable, sorely missed when not there, and good enough to run out his career with us.
Frampton I think will find his role, maybe with more attacking flair.

If you read carefully I am pretty sure he was referring to what the bulldogs did...Rd10.1998_11.1#36 wrote:We didn't "let him go"Charlie Oneeye wrote:The mentality to let Roughy go amazed me
