This is something like our best team this year yet if all are fit to play.If we get floged again this week and bowdo gets as many turnovers as last week will he be out the next week? Still no new blood. ;D ;D ???
 
Agreed there John F.

But there probably wasn't lot of other options to replace those mentioned previously.

I'm sure as soon as BLUMFIELD gets a run under his belt they will slowly find themselve heading back to the VFL.
 
JohnF your not saying frawdudly should drop handgrenade - someone who has done nothing all year

JohnF - bite your tongue.
 
Not happy with Fiora being dropped, but undoubtedly the right move. Couple of weeks at Coburg will do him good.
 
Not a lot of options????

Who is still injured apart from gaspar and blumfield????

If we cant pick anyone other than rogers, biddiscum and houlican than we are in real trouble.

Id rather see young players having a dip making mistakes and losing games rather than rogers, biddiscum and houlihan making the same continual mistakes!!!!
 
At last there are starting to be some options in the 2's.
Players like Aaron should have been back for a run yonks ago if it was possible. Not as any punishment but for their furture improvement.
Blumfield, Fiora, Hilton, Dunc in a couple of weeks will hopefully all be pushing for selection.
At last players in the senior team are going to have to earn their spot, and players who do nothing at Coburg (#8 ;D) won't be selected until they do perform at a suitable standard.

Rosy, you really dont like Pettifer any more do you?

Not a case of don't like anymore shawry, more a case of never rated him right from the start when most other people did.
 
Rosy youre a breath of fresh air. Pettifer is a hack and I never rated him from the start also - hopefully we never see him again.

OK Sylvester ( I use that as my swear filter has banned anything with the term DuD in it) maybe you have some answers rather than statements for a change.

DK is injured, BLUMMFIELD is coming back from injury, HALL is injured, GASPAR is injured, McGRATH and NICHOLLS are coming back from injury as is MILLS, *smile* is being developed and couldn't fill the roles of BIDDERS, ROGERS, or HOULIHAN anyway.

HILTON and FIORA have been ommitted because of form so where does that leave us. PETTIFER well he has had more chances than most.

I am not disagreeing with you on their ability, but I think it just highlights the lack of depth on our current list.

Havings said that I would like to see Hyde actually given some game time so we can see if he should be here or not next year.
 
I don't think the've done too much wrong a the selection table. This is a critical game and we will need a fair amount of experience on the park. Glad to see Hyde getting another opportunity, he seems to be an honest type, not sure of his talent yet.
