Bolton unlucky but so would anyone else
Dees have made 5 changes, looks like the coaching panel have made a real statement to the players. Expect them to come out fired up and they’ll put the pressure on us. If we play our best we should still be able to deal with them but any less and they will do to us, as we did to port.

How so? People are ridiculous if they wanted anyone out besides him.

He is our worst performed player. That's what happens when you have depth. Players miss out.

On a side note, Melbourne's changes look good. I didn't want Garlett in.
Couldn't believe people were calling for Higgins to be dropped ahead of Bolton.

Bolton has been superb.
Our worst performing player wears No 11.

Is it just the short break for Bolton cos if he's not back next game then FMD what does he have to do? do they want to ship him off back to WA after the season for next to nothing.
Would of come down to the tackle count imo he only had the 2 compared to Castagna having the most of the game with 8 and Baker having 4

By what measure? He's our worst defensive forward. He's kicked 1 goal in 2 games and is only getting the ball 10 times a game.

He's made things happen and is a little improved on last year, but it's not enough.
He just has that little bit of something special all the other small forwards simply don't have. Do we want a small forward capable of kicking bags and setting others up? He's the only small forward capable of it.

Rioli isn't talented enough?

Weird team from the Dees. Frost, Hore and Hibberd vs Lynch, Riewoldt and Caddy/Dusty should be carnage for them. Tom McDonald must be going back but their coach said he wouldn't. If he plays forward they have 0 chance
