I think you're lost bro?

Reported. In any case, you're a moron. You've interpreted my post backwards.

Neither.

I think that just comes down to Freddie being the best for the same role. Thus Sturt didn't get dropped because of his performance, it is because Freddie is available this week. Same argument is going to be made about Voss next week when Amiss returns.

Maturity is not a function of a number in a birth certificate.

Yes. They're far from perfect, but they still have the same rough order as people intuit. The only point I wanted to make is that there were other players that should have been dropped before JOM and Walters, and three of the them were. If the replacements are better and JOM/Walters are still...

Dismiss it all you want, it's still a better metric than an individual opinion. How many people have gone back and rewatched the tape three times to identify exactly what each player did? None of course, except those paid by the club to do so. As we don't know specific roles, we're forced to...

Exactly. Making too much change negatively influences team cohesion. We're already settling back to having Darcy as the main ruck. It's a real shame there is a Peel bye as it would have been great to maintain some selection pressure from guys like Stanley and Brodie.

Rating points.

JOM is the latest escaped goat. He was ranked 14th for Freo last week, so hardly worst on ground. He just suffers from his performance being below expectation, plus he's building into the year. The following were rated below JOM: Brayshaw, Sturt, Hughes, Draper, Aish, Walker, Banfield, Erasmus...

From the extended bench, looks like Simpson is the sub.

This is a meaningless statement. Kicking two goals and doing little else does not mean he had a good game and deserved to hold his spot.

The article stated he didn't make it out of protocols. I think they've really strengthened what that means. We're seeing league wide players missing more than the standard 12 days.

Johnson was good though...
