Play McBean
Nothing to lose, plenty to gain
At least the kid would have a dip
Vickery wants to blame team mates all night

Hardwick is too scared to do that! Agree with you though, Arnott, McBean, Griff, play them all, what have we got to lose, Griff at FF for six weeks...must give him a go!

Out - Nahas, Lonergan, White, McGuane & Vickery
In - Any of Dea, Helbig, Edwards, Arnot, Griffiths & would love to see Darrou play on Darling this week, has had a great year so far.

Newman needs to lift big time!!
McBean & McDonough look fantastic prospects for the future but i would hold them back a little longer.

If we are not making finals which we aren't play the kids.
McDonough, McBean, Arnot play them. Helbig for a block of 6 games.
Griffiths at CHF Astbury at CHB
Dimma on his appointment said if I am not the man to take us to RFC 11th premiership then my initiatives will have paved the way for this to happen.

Play the kids and let them develop.

No more Nahas, Jackson, White, Vickery needs the ressies and now.

You want to coach for yourself or the club Dimma?
No short cuts.
Shows our depth is still garbage just look at Coburg. With injuries we are exposed early in the year with clubs up and about rather than mid to late last year when clubs were in transition.
We still lost the unloveable last year as we will this year.
Anyway Dimma  play the kids it makes losing more bearable. I have excuses then. :help

Having watched a little bit of Coburg the only 2 players who I rate as being a chance at becoming long term decent players are McBean and McDonough. The others are just ok.

Tend to agree.

McBean, and McDonough should play some AFL this year,

Think Arnot is worth a game, certainly had some great patches.

Dea also looks more teh comfortable at VFL level compared to a few years ago where he looked at sea and his draft selection was questioned. He is improving on the up. Would like to see Griffiths and Astbury tried up forward. We have 3 good AFL standard defenders in Chaplin, Rance and Grimes with Batch going to be a decent medium/tall defender in time. We need to develop another key forward.
Go Tigers!

What's the point even playing this game, it only leads to massive frustration

Nahas has to go, but what's the point? So they drop him but instead of bringing in a kid who deserves a chance (eg Arnott) they'll bring in someone who doesn't deserve it. Just like they did with Lonergan this week.

Why the continue to play Maric when he is clearly struggling with that bloody groin problem beggars belief

Shaun Grigg had what 30 or was it 40 meaningless, pointless, nothing possessions but will continue to be selected.

I can type away and say

OUTS: Grigg, Nahas, Lonergan, McGuane

INS: Ellis, Arnot, A Edwards, Helbig

But what's the point it won't happen, our match committee haven got the guts to drop certain blokes

Have said it many times he is carrying a groin problem,

why the continue to play him, thereby allowing people to whack him week after week because he is struggling to run, kick and jump is well bloody stupid!

Because the alternatives are worse and it gives a feeling of vindication to Jackster

I remember this; he intimated that he would set us up for sustained success because he had the blueprint for it.
I dunno if I believe him anymore.
The club that keeps giving.
