What about Harris or Adams up front and Payne in down back

I like Gardiner, but don't feel sorry for him if he declared himself fit when it appears he is still carrying an injury. I would feel sorry for him if he was told to play. Obviously a completely different standard with passing a fitness test at training to playing a game. Hs past two games he has been really poor and I know he has had 12 or so weeks out, but Payne also had about 12 weeks out and came back and played reasonably well first few games back. I Assume Payne is good to go as named as an emergency, so perhaps Darcy/coaches/medical staff need to do the team thing and declare him not fit for next weeks game.Coleman is going to be a massive player for us. Got plenty of guts too.
Feel very sorry for Darcy. He shouldn’t be playing. Give him a full preseason and he will come back strong.
He told me to tell you, stop whinging, you got done by a better side on the night.??? Please explain.
Fagan basically just said Lester is an absolute certainty to be back next week.

He told me to tell you, stop whinging, you got done by a better side on the night.
He also told me to tell you that as bad as you think your team played they got within 20points late in the game.
He probably said double chance means double chance.
I said to him it will end being a Brisbane Melbourne GF.
That's it exactly.I've been surprised as to why we have run with Matho as the sub for a while - I think he offers the least versatility out of all our options. I had presumed it was because Lachie may not have gotten through full games but he seems fine now.
We looked like a beaten up team right now - guys woefully underdone and others carrying pretty substantial injuries.
I assume Birch was injured and his season is done.
Going to have to swing the magnets a bit.
We simply don’t have a plan B if going down the line isn’t working for us.
We don’t have the handball skills, or enough run and carry players, to execute genuine run and carry, so I don’t know what the answer is.
That's very true.We simply don’t have a plan B if going down the line isn’t working for us.

He will after 12 months playing reserves.
A big factor were some non competitive players tonight with what looked like fitness/injury. We weren't beaten all that far when you look at how many players were poor.I don't think it takes a massive restructuring to implement some run and carry and defensive running to impede fast breaks from half back or midfield. Just takes some re-jigging. It's amazing how much faster and how much more outside pressure and running a team can look with just two or three player changes. We might already have it on our list. 2 or 3 first round picks this year to add won't hurt.
He was absolutely brilliant , tried his heart out , needed a few more Ike him .There is nothing more certain on this Earth than reading the comments section on an AFL post involving Lachie Neale having a monster game and seeing a nuffy middle aged absolute loser with a profile picture with a “go tiges” frame saying - cheap disposals, done nothing with them.
Neales game was one of his absolute best. Any football follower with any idea would appreciate how clean he was under pressure.
That's it exactly.
We look beaten up and when you go into finals with those players in you generally get belted.
We did a fair job to get as close considering the number of fit players who were also down.
Thanks to the supreme efforts of 5 or 6.
Bit harsh , had to completely change.position after Dan went off .Emotionally gassed as a supporter and I don’t want to bash players cause I inevitably want to take it back after.. but damn Jarrod Berry is in deadset no mans land at the moment.
We all want him to be this important cog for the next 10 years but he’s just lost as a footballer.
Not an accumulator, not quick or impactful enough for a quick burst impact player, not super skilled, shaky down forward.
Unsure he’s a lockdown backman.
Unless he’s given a pure lockdown role I’m just not sure where he’s at. Injury issues taken into account and all.
It’s the exact position we can’t really afford passengers in and right now he’s riding shotgun.
