Was really hoping we'd see Collard. Another sub appearance for Hastie then you'd think.

He went to 2/33 centre bounces last week.

Full time forward comment was made before the game. He'd barely been to a centre bounce all year so the comment was clearly accurate. Good to see he's doing well tonight. Still looks like he is pushing up from half forward rather than being a starting midfielder.

Here are Adelaide's CBAs for the year.

Agreed. He looks badly like he needs to run around and play on instinct. A few weeks getting 30 disposals, playing with some freedom and remembering how to collect the footy with a bit more ease would do him plenty of good.

Yeah he definitely went back in there for the second half. Was good to see. Keen to see him get a good run at it.

It's a hard game to come in for, but I really hope we see Collard here with a full game. In: King, Collard, Howard. Out: Butler, Jones, Cordy. Probably Sharman to the sub role.

Hoping that Ross starts to throw the magnets around with the midfield a bit now. He is pretty reluctant to have more than four main midfielders in most weeks. It was great last night to see Garcia start at the first centre bounce, but disappointing to see him moved to half forward 10 minutes in...

Yeah I was opposed to it a few weeks ago when the idea started to get floated, but it's probably worth a shot. We have so little class and spark in that midfield, it would be great if it worked.

Daicos and Ashcoft for sure. Both are young stars and are clearly ahead of Windhager as midfielders. Achcroft ACL a real pity. Hobbs certainly isn't doing it. He's closer to getting dropped than to being a starting mid. He's been to barely any centre bounces for the year. Averaging 16 touches...

Windhager is looking very good for a 20 year old. Don't reckon there'd be that many 20 year old or third year midfielders doing better.

Very bleak. Probably Howard and King in next week. Dow and Clark need a game in the VFL. Need to move past Jones permanently. Move past Butler too probably. Ross should only play on the wing. Development of Windhager, Garcia and Owens (not that this will happen anytime soon) as midfielders...

The VFL schedule is a mess. Second time in three weeks with no games for Sandringham. Poor timing with Dow ready to go too.
