So why haven't either of them been picked for any of the three pre-season matches? Injured or just on the outer?
I add a question too. Are they working hard enough?

Maybe others in a very short time have gone past them in work rate and adaptability to the game plan???

IMESHO, you cannot play McBean & Choi in the same side. And at this stage I'd argue Choi is ahead of McBean, better leap, better below the knees, more agile and (early doors) more footy smarts in that his reaction time appears a lot quicker than McBean's

So he won the Frosty Miller Medal and topped our VFL goalkicking three years running by sheer fluke then? Meanwhile, has Chol even played a competitive match yet? And why can't you play them in the same side?  Sorry, but that's just utter rubbish.

Yes much more important that Supercoach 7 of 9 does whatever it takes to keep our Moneyball poster boy Chaplin in the side....

Actually it's  not rubbish, it's an opinion

The reason why IMESHO you cannot play them i  the same side because i dont believe you can play 2 inexperienced players who play a similar role in the same side. With the key word here beong inexperience

Further to that there is a huge gap between VFL level and AFL and despite what some peope think i don't believe that McBean shpwed much in his couple of AFL games last year. He actually looked lost and was far too easily out bodied

If we are about winnong games, making finals and winning them then I dont think we are in position to play these 2 kids.

Just an opinion

7 & 9 touches in the forward line - didn't play the full match in either game - gave away 398 games & 2 decades of AFL experience to his opponent in the second match....still managed 3 marks, had a shot on goal and nearly crumbed another one....did he set the world on fire? Nope - but hardly the returns of someone who was "lost"...

Is that real paid up members or posters who say that they are paid up members?
