Tony is in a good rhythm. We knew when he was available what he could bring to the team, and we knew he had the ability to score.

For example, I was discussing the use of email and how impersonal it can be, how people will now email someone across the room rather than go and talk to them. But I don't think this is laziness, I think it is a conscious decision people are making to save time.
