agree...match committee doing a great jobRancey18 said:Came in as insurance, did a job, and straight back out when our quality returned. Well done selection committee, could have very easily left him in and dropped someone else like McIntosh but instead made the right call.

Thomas named = "omfg why did Dimma name this spud he sucks as much as Morris yada yada/lost at selection table AGAIN"
Thomas dropped = "we're going to miss him/he was unlucky/Shedda doesn't win much inside ball"
SCOOP said:Treacle Thomas moves in traffic like Clive Palmer towards a celery stick. Slow and forced.
Tigaman said:They talk about Thomas being slow which is a load crap when you have a goose at Mitchell & Hodge's speed of foot. Thomas adds grunt down under & that is where it counts. Out for Titch whose stats amount to easy ball gets on the fringe.
SCOOP said:It’s mental. Thomas to Shedda is a huge upgrade. And I’d say Edwards is a better inside player. At the very least when he gets it inside he can step out into the clear. Huge in.

evo said:you never know, they could be different people posting different opinions.
well maybe you shoulda quoted the guy who thinks that mate.St Kevin said:Yeah and the opinions that Thomas is better inside than Edwards and will be missed this week/was stiff to be dropped, are as ludicrous as Donald Trump's follicles.
tigerlove said:Thomas's stats compared to Edward's this year appear to indicate that Edwards is indeed a better inside player but this alone severely underplays how important Edwards is in other areas (such as opening up the play with his quick handballs). There is no circumstance I can think of where thomas gets a game ahead of Edwards.

Rancey18 said::hihi how is it even remotely possible that Edwards v Thomas is being debated here!
Baloo said:It's not hard to understand. We even had wild debates over who was better between Watts and Nic nat even after they had played a season or two.
Then there were the Cale Morton v Chimp Kazoo debates.
It's the internet, you'll always find someone willing to have an opposing view.
