Suckling also has nothing else to his game, which is why he's been in and out this year. Hendo has his speed and has a decent leg. I'm sorry, but Suckling isn't automatically a better player because he's at the Hawks. He's turned the ball over a fair bit this year, just like Hendo can at times.
I'll also compare whoever I like, thanks.

Yeah Rather he was punching above his weight on the field.
Me and you both. Just show him the vest.

Mackay I can kinda understand even though I'd have dropped him. Wright I just can't fathom at all.
Whats stopping Martin playing DMacs role ?? He can play the outside runner with the added bonus of being strong overhead and stronger in the contest when required.
His defensive effort must not be good enough...
The only team that's come close to hawthorn's level since the bye has been us. given that, given that this is one of our strongest sides for the year and some important players are starting to get continuity, given its at home, I give us a good chance against sydney. Going to be interesting to see how this one plays out. Sydney like the contested stuff, which is normally how we beat other teams, but they've been much better at manufacturing uncontested stuff than us in previous five or six games but in the last couple of weeks campo has got us starting to get some good levels of uncontested ball now as well. Hopefully we chill off on the hard press a bit, provide some added redundancy to it and that give them a real good run for their money. Cant wait.

I can just envisage Nobes getting in his Toyota after the interview, adjusting the rear view and laughing nervously to himself. Exclaiming "non statistical roles" to himself and saying, "yep, pay that". Then reversing the car out and whistling somewhere over the rainbow all the way home.
Our mate NTRabbit has proven he barely even watches the game. Similar to Noble, he selects primarily by looking at games played. Jesus, I'm starting to feel sorry for VB again. What did he do wrong to deserve such shabby treatment. Off-field work - first class. Time trials - near unbeatable at our club. On field - could be a smidgin better. Denied a crack at 200 (at present) while a guy like Wright holds his spot.
Weak as piss AFC selection panel. You deserve the rewards that you reap as does every supporter like the Rabbit that supports this bullshit.
Seriously "non statistical roles". Talk about semantics!
Didn't Brett Chalmers play a non statistical role for us twice. When he sat on the bench the whole ******* game?!

Blight was ahead of the game by trialing his own sub rule

NT thinks he's never wrong, even last week he denied DMack played wing, he must have been watching the wrong replay.
At some point it needs to dawn on supporters that this isn't a week-to-week issue. THIS IS A CULTURAL ISSUE. And whilst David Noble is the head honcho of our football dept it will not change. The most senior person responsible for our on-field performance thoroughly endorses this weeks selection decisions. Think about that for a minute and what it means going forward.
I'm going to make a comeback to footy, reckon I could get a game playing a non-statistical role.
Also curious as to why Wright and DMack have been chosen to play the non-statistical roles. Especially DMack, we badly need run and carry but we chose to play him in a role that doesn't require touching the ball. ******* idiotic or just spin bullshit???

It's obvious the coaches rank some players on different metrics due to team balance, game plan etc. The fact many here were blasting VB in the Freo game yet he polled coaches votes is an example. As is the various "team player" awards given by each team in the comp.
I'd actually genuinely be interested in seeing what it is that the coaches believe Mackay and Wright are doing well enough to remain in the team. Or is it simply that they don't believe anyone in the SANFL can do the same role any better? It's a shame we're unlikely to ever get a straight answer on this.

So we don't have anyone capable in the SANFL of playing a non-statistical role as well as Wright?
* you talk s**t
Ha ha. I laughed a lot. It's like giving weekend hackers hope.

I think Lyons was BOG
I can see team scouring the Amateur D grade comps around the country looking for players who excel at the non-statistical role
Non statistical role v Elite standards.
Seriously AFC it's one or the other. U can't have both!

Surely we could atleast use a cheap rookie to do the non statistical jobs?
