Apparently Bolt hurt himself pretty bad yesterday?
I think Ratten was frustrated, angry, disappointed, but the intent of what he's saying is.... this is not the best 22 we will go forward with. We will improve on this team. He'd be desperately unlucky to NOT have any of Gibbs, Waite, Kreuzer to pick in any future game.
As much as Ratten wouldn't say it,
every single footy follower out there knows Setanta-Thornton isn't a twin towers forward setup to take a team into the top 4. Ideally NEITHER would get a game, behind Waite, Kreuzer, plus either one of our younger KPP prospects OR a trade target. Much kudos to Irish and T-Bird for competing, trying and delivering as best they can. Cannot and will no question their commitment or love of playing in the Navy Blue. They're not all that good, though, really.
PS - Lloydy called it after the game, Jamison-Henderson are pushing towards "elite" KPDs. True, and how tingly does that make you feel?
