Bucks rather play Duds like JT and C Brown

 

[Scritchyscroony]

Ask Bucks lol

He wouldn't have a sensible answer. Was hoping you might.

 

[Jen2310]

He wouldn't have a sensible answer. Was hoping you might.

I'm not sure of the reasons. Maybe with Bianco he was close but just didn't make the cut. With Murphy, its a strange one. Maybe opting for experience for this game.

Its impossible to know sometimes. I just know who goes in and out, not so much the reasons.

 

[Lip Gallagher]

Strongest side we've fielded for a while, Adams is a massive in, hopefully the boys can pull something out and play for the jumper, i hate those fkrs.

Murph is dead set going to kill himself the way he goes in, has zero self preservation, they are obviously taking no risks with him.

I guess not playing him at all is the best means of preserving him. If he is just watching the game, he is almost certain to avoid injury. Well done, Collingwood! Astute thinking.

I’m not sure I agree that he will kill himself, but I agree they may be taking a more cautious approach that I agree with.

He has shown more than enough to suggest that he will be a big part of our future, and I can see him becoming a fan favourite..

Nurse him thru this year, allow him to continue to build a physique that is compatible with his attack on the ball.

Young player coming off a concussion, i seriouly doubt it was his first either, giving him another week won't hurt, i woukd however be mystified if he played VFL.

 

[jackcass]

Murphy looked great and deserved to come straight back in once over his concussion. Why make him sub, where he risks getting no game time at either level?

Seriously, some of our selection decision are baffling and must be demoralising for the players concerned.

There's no VFL game so a moot point.

Fielding a team that is older than Port Adelaides and with more games played on average.

You’d think we were the ones in top 4 contention. Shouldn’t be playing 7 players with over 150 games experience if we are in a rebuild

Not the Team that is going to get Flogged

 

[jackcass]

I’m going to the game. Will load up on IPA to ease the pain.
Much tastier then lube.

I'll defer to you, can't say I've ever tasted lube.

Staggering Keane has actually shown something an gets dropped.

Yet we still have to watch the duds of the world C Brown J Thomas and co again.

Yes i understand its like for like position wise but come on if the young fella is playing well keep playing him.

So we are two months older. Does that really bother you?

I don’t think we will flog Port, just a 4 to 6 goal win.

Can only assume that it was either Keane or Roughy. Can't argue against Roughy getting the nod.

Are Brown and Thomas the biggest duds in the world? That would be some kind of achievement!

 

[whiskeytown]

You think it’s wise for a bottom 4 team to field one of the oldest and most experienced sides of the round?

4 goals between them would say yes they are indeed duds

 

[jmac70]

Yep.

 

[jmac70]

Nah.

 

[Shade]

Nah.

Do you actually post anything intelligent or just parade around trying to spin some weird positivity?

 

[domus]

Buckley's presser today was depressing. He seemed up and about and it seems to me he knows something we don't.
His comment 'for some reason we lose our dare after quarter time' was demoralizing. For some reason says the man who has been in charge for ten years.
Apparently all teams go through a state of flux. The Hawks are in a state of flux and cuddling their five flags from recent years for comfort.
Geelong played off in a GF and prelim and went out and recruited 3 excellent players and are even stronger.
Richmond have won 3 and on target for 4 with no sign of flux on the horizon.
But we had one good year. Be content pie fans. We are regenerating. Cal Brown selected again.

Korda and Current Board have Probably told him they want to keep him
