Bate

Surely he will play?
Did he play VFL?

Sandy play tomorrow.

No doubt Moloney will pull out before the game, which means Bate could still play.
Not sure why you're surprised they dropped him. Afterall, Godfrey trumps all in the eyes of Daniher.

Hmmm.
I dont geddit?

I may not know much about the Dees, but why play old hacks when kids like Bate are still learning the game and would benefit more by playing.

What is to be achieved by playing Godfrey, ND Brown etc Neale?

Play the kids!

Who are you, and can you coach us?

Honestly, I would think EVERY coach in the comp would look at melbourne's list and drool.

McLean, Sylvia, Bate, Miller, Jones, Rivers, Davey....

Why half of that mob arent playing can only be attributed to Neale.

How can he be honestly doing anything other than selecting the old blokes for his own benefit?

Mark this down though...if and when the new coach comes in...look out.

I'm just looking forward to seeing the Bizz play, been along time between drinks and the way Melbourne are playing i think he will hopefully give us some run of half back.

Bate has been terrible. Give him some form at Sandy. I was all for dropping him. Give Petterd a go for Moloney. How certain is his withdrawel?

 

[oooze]

Bate is too slow to be playing half forward line. he is quick when running at full tilt..but he cannot do 'U' turns to save himself. Far too slow.
