Sure, being with Brodie helps, but hes no scrub, hes a useful and versatile player that can play that #7 role or step into a top 4 role for limited amounts of time.
I'm much happier to have had Engelland there than anyone else and hes going to be in the top 7 going into this season because of that versatility.

If Hartley deciding to play him those minutes means he "handled" then, i see where we disagree.
I think Hartley made a mistake, you don't. There's no proof of the hypothetical, but Brodie/Engelland was not a good thing IMO.
With the available options, Wilson among others would be a better replacement
