You only needed to see Bridges play in youth and trial games over the past season or so to see that he's not good enough.

At those levels players like Chapman and Virgili dominated. Bridges did not dominate at all.

Sure, he does make the occasional play / move that reminds you of how good he used to be. Then a few mins later he will either lose the ball, misdirect a pass, or fail to close down an opponent.

His toal lack of athleticism is a big problem and makes him a liability at A-league level.

I'd love to see him line up every week if he could do the job. But from what I've seen he's finished.
