Another uninspiring side brought to you by MarkIINeeld in the shadow of Hardwick remnant Livingstone.... :clapping

Our vfl boys are performing to that's what is puzzling. Ryan not in staggering why would you risk Balta in the ruck.What a waste of time that was playing Naismith as a forward. Mansell and Campbell still in again another puzzling situation. You got Coulthard and Cumberland. Smith and McAuliffe both in good form to.

Bring in Prestia no match fitness and Graham after one week even through he doesn't warrant it on form. Why not bring Prestia through vfl and build his fitness instead of him breaking down after a quarter. Poor decisions continues from the match committee.Garbage for me.

If Prestia does his hammy again whoever is in charge of medical should be sacked

Should run a book on which quarter he'll go down in..... :shh


Lmao @ Graham just waddling straight back in to contribute 9/10ths of stuff all again..... :facepalm


.....oh well at least we'll still have the high scoring firepower of Mansell & PoloCampbell..... :propeller

Prestia and Graham.

Great.

Two slow, injury-prone blokes coming off hammies.

Not inspiring.

Just to be clear he didn't strain or tear his hammy.

He had hamstring tightness, had a scan and got cleared of the above

But they decided not to play him last week. Probably influenced by the mss Port made with Rozee

But whatever

I like the ins. Except Jack Graham. I also like the outs.
“I find it nearly impossible to make those judgments, but he is certainly up there with the really important ones, he is certainly up there with the Francis Bourkes and the Royce Harts and the Kevin Bartlett and the Kevin Sheedys, there is no doubt about that,” Balme said.

Agree with comments team selections very uninspiring.  Have not rewarded players for good form in vfl. Shows a complete lack of direction.

Finally kmac and GRIMES are out, it's a start!!
Prestia may just be the sub , and do his hammy sitting on the bench
