Blokes a ******* ball magnet I know where id give him a run....that spot where we lack significantlyExactly.
It’s a long season, he’ll likely get his chance at some stage.
Funnily enough mate, I too had a dream we won, but it was to get into the GF...I had a dream last night that we won this game 395 - 270. Is it an omen?

With the state of our injury list team selection is a matter of damage control atm. I'm sure the players are well aware of the situation and not taking it personally. Not having Stuv, Jake, Robbo, Gears and Hanners means the support isn't there to give under performing youngsters an extended run without endangering our chances of winning and based on performance there is justification for dropping each them. It's not ideal by any stretch, but the coaches are obviously trying to establish some base of performance standards to build from. By comparison, if we had say Fyfe, Mundy and Walters in our midfield to do the heavy lifting, then Hunter would get more of a run. We are a work in progress..Not happy. 3 players in for 1 week then straight out.
Phillips offers composure and run. Probably about what we need some of right now.Surprised to see Phillips in there. Not really sure he offers a lot.
What does Hind have to do to get a game?

Right, so what’s a pass mark for Spook? 20 Disposals, 15 CPs ???
His problem isn't finding and winning the ball.
His problem is staying off the pine.
Therefore passmark = >70% TOG.
The possies and his impact will take care of itself if he can spend far less time off the ground.
Agreed. His CP % is fine and his possessions per minute is also good. He, like everyone else (superstar Fyfe included) can't find the ball when his butt is on the pine.
Unfortunately I don't think he's at all damaging though. Most of his touches are nothing touches.Phillips offers composure and run. Probably about what we need some of right now.
Hmmmm! I wonder why?His possies per minute is actually exceptional.
If he played the same minutes (~80-85%) as the rest of our midfielders who have more than a few preseasons under their belt- he'd get 30+ touches every single week.
He'd be our tom mitchell/matt crouch etc ball pig.
Alas he his TOG % started ~65% as an 18 year old and hasn't budged since.
Unfortunately I don't think he's at all damaging though. Most of his touches are nothing touches.
Hind has line breaking pace and is showing in the VFL he can find plenty of it.
I agree with that. But he does look for targets and doesn't bomb long, so that's a good start IMO..Unfortunately I don't think he's at all damaging though. Most of his touches are nothing touches.

It was interestingto hear Rooey's thoughts on why we seem to still bomb the ball long so often. He thinks there is no other option due to our slow ball movement from the back line, which does make sense. Not sure why we were doing it last year though when we were moving the ball faster.I agree with that. But he does look for targets and doesn't bomb long, so that's a good start IMO..
