He has been ripping it in the VFL with numerous BOG's and Melbourne aren't exactly on fire so what will it take him to get in. I am sure I am not the only one who has him sitting on the bench and with the amount of donuts coming up, it'd be good for him to get a game. Hope he doesn't end up like Cam Richardson last year.
Certainly a strange one particularly with Melbourne having already declared some LTIs. I think they even went to extent of mainlisting Couch (though not certain) I'm thinking the issue with Couch is probably the fear that his strengths would be dulled in AFL pressure, and his deficiencies in disposal and speed will be exploited. He played Pies VFL last year and wasn't our most impressive player there, just honest and solid.
