Which is crapFinally, someone who gets it - someone actually capable of thinking about the implications on team structure. There is not a snowball's chance in hell that we'll play all of Rutten, Talia, Hartigan & Otten at the same time. That back line is too tall and way too slow. Crouch for Reilly would require a bit of a reshuffle, but is entirely feasible and could well eventuate.
It's not going to take anyone being "out of form". It might not be popular with BigFooty, but VB is an automatic selection and will come straight back into the side when he's ready (having probably spent 2-3 games in the SANFL getting himself match fit). If that requires another player to be dropped, then that will happen. Odds are that he will just fill a vacancy created by injury.
If it comes down to a choice between VB, Kerridge & Wright, VB will be an automatic selection and one of Kerridge & Wright will miss out, subject to their relative performance levels at the time.
