Like the ins, disappointed that Lazzaro is out but he makes the most sense with Cunners & Jed back.

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

Well, Noble seems to feel Polec isn’t required.

At all.

 

[trooroo4life]

Actually thought Laz was pretty handy last week, bit unlucky imo.

Good to have Cunners and Jed back in.

 

[shinboner magic]

Polec looks gone at end of season.

Can’t see a reason why we don’t win this one.

 

[Kangaroos4eva]

Atu for an injured Taz and for some coverage against their small forwards.

Cunners for Laz and Ando for Mahoney means two forwards for two mids.

 

[Val Keating]

Cunners & Jed

 

[Passmore]

If we're bringing Cunnington and Anderson, someone had to go. Either Lazarro or Phillips would have been stiff. If Mahony was fit, both may have gone.

Lazzaro out is a dislike.

Laz did enough to keep his spot i thought . Desperately unlucky.
Hope he doesn’t become our version of an easy drop target & revolving door . It’s a great way of killing a kid’s confidence & kill off his career super quick .
This is something that nuff nuff of a coach we used to have would do .

It doesn’t look good for him

I get what you’re saying but who would he go in for?

AFL is a ruthless sport

Atley is the reason we don’t win this one

Without atley in the side you wouldn’t have anything to say

 

[Its a Process]

Well, Noble seems to feel Polec isn’t required.

Seems that way. At only 28 and with 3-4 years (theoretically) of really top end football left in him you’d think we want him back in sooner rather than later, especially if we think we are losing Froggy next year.
Be interesting to see if Jared pushes through it and has a good pre-season, there is a spot for him if he wants it.

 

[DarwinRoo]

Polec is an emergency right and could be the medi-sub.

 

[Ligma]

Am I the only one who thinks Tarrant is as not a big of a loss as it seems? Like yeah he is an integral part of our backline but McKay has proven that he can do it on his own?? Dixon, Hawkins, ect

Don’t worry …. Let it run its course
There will be plenty of posters having a lot to say about this bucket after our game

 

[Usayed Givashe]

I’m not sure why we are persisting with dads army defence, it’s horrendous.

Polec, McDonald, Lazarro… all individually would be of more value in defence than Atley and Hall combined.

It’s funny that you put those two together….Think Lazzaro has a bit to offer, though he needs to get a bit more uncompromising when it’s his turn. Atu has an admirable commitment to go, even when it’s unnecessary.

He's had a long term injury at the wrong age.

I've got no doubt he'll bounce back, but he is not indispensable anymore
