It is a gamble especially as Fagan has a big preference playing 3 talls forward.The more I think about it and just reading your post I don't understand at all why they wouldn't play Fort here.
But I still think they're not going at all well enough to really trouble us. Unless we revert back to our not interested days like 2 weeks ago.
I thought if Fort missed out Fullarton would get a go. But happy enough to see how this works v Saints.
In the end i think the choice was not to drop the 2 young guys that performed well last week.
After that it was who can make way for that to happen with only McCluggage to come back in.
I think it really had to be a forward.
Charlie was our worse forward last week, but he gets a pass.
Fort was the next worst.
Fort is a better ruck than forward and did his best work in the 3rd quarter as a ruck.
However, nothing to get excited about in his other 3 quarters. Only 1 mark for the game and that was in the 3rd quarter too.
Fort: quarter x quarter v Swans.
