A full back’s role is to stop the forward from playing. Someone earlier pointed out he is 19, in my opinion he’s not ready to be our full back. He’d be coming up against very experienced players like Flanagan, Callanan etc and I don’t think he’s ready for that.Eoin sacrificed his own game to mark Patrick Fitzgerald who is a great talent so I would say he done ok considering.
Ben wasn’t at his best but he kept showing and fighting for the ball. His scores in those conditions were vital.
I don’t think Pat Ryan will be too alarmed if that’s what you mean
Showing and fighting for the ball is the bare minimum we should expect of forward.
Both lads will have better days.
