Definitions
(Australia, by extension, of, a group) To have significant depth of talent.
A player that can play so well forward and so well in the midfield is so hard to replace. I would play him 70–30 forward–midfield because I like his ability to score. They bat deep in the midfield and he is so damaging closer to goal.
Comments
