Club has lost the plot.

this has happened a second time now. If they needed to be rested why not rest them against the dees?

People think the standards and decision making hasnt been below average Please.
I agree with you here, Frankie. Not sure why the Match Committee would decide to play Dusty against the top 4 Dees if they were going to rest him against the Dogs. As you say Frankie, the MC did the same stupid thing earlier in the season and it cost us :P.

Aside from Jack, we've gone all in on the youth this week :o. Massive call given the season is on the line tonight.

It probably not a matter of choice. The bodies of the older guys will dictate when they need to be rested not the Match Committee. As far a Some of the other posts, beg for changes and play the kids and when they do still not happy. Only thing I'm not happy with is Soldo, would of much preferred Ryan given the go.

Not sure why the hate on McIntosh. Watch the number of time he appears at both ends of the ground (right to the goal squares), how hard he works both ways. Not many I can think of that do that. Then again watch him have a shocker now I have said that.
Here , kitty kitty. Here , kitty kitty.   AAAUGH!

Suprised they didn’t drop Balta after last weeks non effort and quitting.

They’ve clearly put the cue in the rack for the season so it wouldn’t have made much difference especially could have given Miller an opportunity in defence and maybe brought in Biggie for a senior gig.

Balta should have been taught a lesson.

Could you please mention Balta’s non effort one more time?

We would've known well in advance there was a 5-day coming between the games and that most of the older blokes wouldn't be able to play both matches. Seems we went chips in last week against the flag contending Dees at the 'G and sacrificed tonight. It doesn't do the belief and confidence of the group much coming into the game when they see the Match Committee leaving out Dusty, Cotch and Grimes with the season on the line. Not for the first time this year either our team selection has been back-to-front in similar circumstances, and it has cost us again. Now we'll get Dusty, Cotch and Grimes back next week but for what? Cotch will come back in just to play the last three games of his career with nothing to play for. Doesn't make any sense to do it that way IMHO.

5 non-effort intercept marks. Was arguably the only key defender that didn't totally embarrass himself tonight. :shh
