I do like close but he's not going to be able to drag a key defender off Hawkins the way Rohan does. Close over Dahlhaus isn't even up for debate with the latter completely don't as far as I can see. I think close should even perhaps take Higgins spot going forward as I really liked the look of our forward line with Ablett out and him inYeah I know, it's what he does when he doesn't have the ball apparently. By that logic we should have cruised to victory yesterday - he was sitting in the stands. He's getting close to Josh "he's guarding one side of the ground" Cowan levels of excuses for non-performance.
No argument for Dangerfield, Higgins, or Cameron. Problem is I don't necessarily see Henry or Kolodjashnij as being dropped. Maybe Henry, Kolodjashnij won't be. I'm not convinced at all that Ratugolea is any better than Stanley, and I can't see Bews being dropped.
As for Close, he had 19 touches yesterday and laid 4 tackles. You know the last time Rohan had 19 touches in a game? 2016. I know I know, it's what he does when he doesn't have the ball. Or something.
