Worst thing is we will be stuck with VB against the quickest midfield in the land next week


No SANFL game for the Crouch boys to find touch before GWS

Thommo
Van Berlo
Douglas
Lyons
Sloane

It's 2013 again. Nobes and Campo must be having a celebratory reach around

Poor Sloaney
Don't we play central a this week?

I'd like to think that Pyke missed the meeting, but he did say that you back in blokes who gave done good things for the club over a long period of time. I thought he was talking about Dougie and not effing VB.

This is truly shit and what's worse is that we pick up an easy win, so even if these guys continue to not perform they won't be getting dropped or rested for the GWS game. I hope both Crouch's walk at year's end, it's what the coaching group deserve.

Edit - unless there's been a discipline issue during the week.
I'm really not sure why we would ever bring in VB unless it was the very last option we had left in the cupboard? I mean we play GWS next. G - W - S !!

The speed that is needed to even keep close to those guys is frightening - they made Geelong look slow and dis-organised.

Why would we be bringing in another slow player in preparation for that?
 
This club doesn't ****ing change no matter who's in charge. I'm ****ing over it. Watch us pummel the Suns, go in against the Giants unchanged with a bunch of plodders and get annihilated. I'm not even joking when I say that our biggest home loss will be under threat next week. CEY not even in the emergencies.

I can understand the thinking on Brouch (not what I would have done), And also understand Mrouch he is still only young and looked to be needing a rest.

I can also understand Lyons getting another well deserved AFL game, But VB???????????? That is so wrong, I was nearly sure he would not get another look unless we got massive injuries, But no he has done it again.
 
CEY must be doing something wrong in their eyes to not even be included in the emergencies. The outs aren't super mind boggling, although personally would have played Brad, but VB in just defies any sort of logic. Douglas still in makes little sense either.
 
Absolute bullshit from Pyke. He's panicked after a couple of losses and brought in an experienced plodder who offers nothing.

Douglas has been hopeless, arguably worse than the Crouch brothers given he's an experienced mid, yet keeps his spot.

Thommo can't chase/spread hard and is exposed the other way defensively far too easily which has been exactly our problem lately.

No doubt B.Crouch was brought in too early but they did so they had to back him in for longer.

I can't understand why we would replace two mids with a slow half-back with shocking disposal/decision-making and zero agility/awareness. He won't help our hardness at the contest in the midfield and he won't help us chase/tackle in the midfield either.

Terrible selection.
