    We've named Gov at CHB, but then we have done that before and not done it. Kemp is a pinch hitting tall and so is Gov IMO. Not overly worried. It's Reidy staying in instead of Lewis Young.

    Saints have 2 genuine rucks in the side. We need McKay up forward the whole game. So really we are quibbling over Reidy vs Young.

    My response would be that while both can play loose in defence, as they are attacking defenders ... Saad is better one on one than Wilson, and has the guile to use his body better to out-manoeuvre his opponent. Wilson is definitely thereabouts. This game is a must win for supporters, because...

    My first reaction to the team was frustration because VFL form isn't rewarded for all players. Flynn Young a travelling emergency, and is probably going to be held over again. Billy Wilson had the game of his life, but a veteran comes in for him. However ... Hollands is not a bad matchup for...

    All hail our new CHF, Jagga Smith. Best CHF since Dennis Armfield.

    Agreed. I'm a little perturbed at that cheap shot from Bartel. Especially as I was excited at the prospect of him joining us last year. Cheap observation to join in on the bashing.

    Only as a defensive forward. He lacks the pace to tag anybody dynamic. I think Charleson is the lock down small defender we need to come on. Quick enough and close checking. Wilson is more of a Saad replacement. If we could develop Chesser into a tagger, that would be a bonus. He has the...

    On evidence to date, Cripps or Walsh in the midfield or Cowan down back. We don't seem to factor in pace at all.

    What other choice did we have? Trading him was wrong. Delisting him is wrong. Making him earn a spot back is wrong. So .... we just let him take up a list spot and hope he comes right? I mean, we have been supporting him and working with him. 2 years apparently down the gurgler. The club...
