He's a 1st year KPD...he's tracking well with the amount of games he's managed to play as it is.
And if we're honest, he hasn't done a whole lot in his last few AFL games...he'll be fine.


Wouldn't worry me if only played another couple of games for the year. I've seen enough already with 'Creed'.

His job now is to watch and learn and then go away over summer and come back 5-8Kgs heavier, ready to take on the best.

I'm going to call him Apollo...
 
Very disappointed Graham is dropped. He had 20 touches and 5 tackles against North. How Sumner survived is beyond me.
 
I like sumnuts but he is barely fit enough to play VFL, let alone AFL games.
This. Rewarding players who aren't fit or who haven't deserved is against what the Mc have been communicating.

Really happy to see Jones in the team (as much as I can't believe I'm saying that), his form in the 2's from what I've watched has been great and just hope he can carry that through on Sunday.

He's always had the physical attributes, probably the mental not so much

This is the truth. He actually did some good work against Norf even if he did cough it up in the last. He's going to be a player.

Totally depressing selections this week. No excuses.

You realise simply playing heaps of kids for the sake of it against the best team in the comp who's running power is their no.1 asset would be a disaster right?

We'd get flogged by 10 goals+ and the kids wouldn't 'develop' from the game even slightly.

We have more than enough kids still in the team to be excited about: Weitering, SOSOS, Curnow, Cuningham, Fisher & Williamson from the last 2 drafts alone...then you could add Sumner, Plowman & Marchbank too. That's already a really high number.

**** you could even add Cripps & Docherty to that list as well given their age but they feel like elder statesmen.

I know a few are meh..... on the selections but I think the changes are good. Youngsters just can't be given games week after week regardless of performance, there will be more to follow. Much opportunity for the kids though, they will still be given a lot of game time.
 
This game has flogging written all over it. Be interested to see what Lamb brings to the table i expect him to be delisted at years end.
