Outs: Gibcus - the boy needs to go back and work on some deficiencies. Too many errors (DE 54%), he was also easily out marked on numerous occasions.
He just doesn't look confident like early on in the year.
Dusty - (inj) not sure how bad it was but I heard hamstring tightness.

Ins: Miller, Prestia

PS: We don't need Soldo, mind you, I was one advocating for him to be 2nd ruck to Nank but he is too slow, and just not providing enough to warrant being in the side.
5 disposals, 1 mark and 9 hit outs
I would much prefer more run in the side.

Delilah after another great game 35 HO 7M in VFL must be close to getting a game to replace Soldo

Soldo is giving us very little at the moment, not sure what to do about him, I reckon it is time to give Samson a go.

We'll have to see on Dustin but if he is out I figure Prestia back for Martin.

Gibcus does look to need a break, week off, week in the VFL then back, and give Miller a go. How was Miller in the VFL today?

Miller played well 27D 16K 11HB 4 marks watched till half time was much better than Biggy down back and provided run out of backline

George Out
Shoulda never have been selected today - and proved it
Play anyone - Stack, Dow, Sonsie, Juddy - doesn’t matter - as long as there is a chance they’ll show the benefit in 2 years time
We know what George can do and it ain’t enough

In Prestia Ryan
Out George Soldo Lambert

Assuming Dustin is okay and Balta and Cotchin not right to play
Soldo not giving us much. Just think Ryan offers more in the forward line and would be able to nullify Gold Coast second ruck
Prestia is an easy in. The game has gone past George’s disposal efficiency. Misses to many passes by hand and foot when under very little pressure
 
Just don't think it's the game we will bring Sampson in. I probably prefer to have him play out the rest of the season in the VFL and set him for next year after a good pre-season. Now what to do with Soldo, he has been very poor?
 
It’s going to be greasy up in QLD. Not the game to play Sampson. If anything we only play with one ruck. But can’t see Hardwick dropping Soldo.

So I am going with Gibcus as the tall to miss.

Martin won’t play with a 6 day turnaround.

Out: Martin Gibcus
In: Prestia Lambert

In : Prestia, Cumberland, Balta
Out : Martin, Castagna, Soldo

Balta may be good to go, Gibcus plays on 3rd best fwd, Noah deserves a promotion more than anyone.

Give Dusty a rest unless zero hammy damage. If Dusty good, give Edwards a rest.

He did play well, but his disposals are a bit misleading for a tall defender. Unlike in the 1's, Miller as a tall takes our kickouts in the 2's.

Soldo was a liability again. A 2019 Soldo was almost indispensable. What a difference the knee injury has made. He just doesn’t impose himself on the game. Has lost all confidence and is slow. Will he get back to his best?
