Play McBean, Elton and Lennon for the rest of the year
« on: May 07, 2016, 01:09:29 PM »
I don't care how bad the 2s are. I don't care if these 2 haven't ripped up the VFL to warrant a best 22 selection.

All that matters is that the same aging players that have been in the best 22 for the last 3-4 years have failed to deliver anything.

McBean in for Griffiths
Elton in for Chaplin
Lennon in for Morris

Who knows McBean with 5-10 games with Riewoldt might actually develop better than being in the biggest rabble of a VFL team. Elton may develop more being next to Rance for a whole season than in the biggest rabble of a VFL team. Lennon might develop more learning off Deledio.

Stop making the same rubbish mistakes and putting faith in C Grade duds and play some kids who haven't had a chance.

These 3 should play ahead of Ellis, Houli, Grigg and a few more.

Yep season is shot. Time to drop the list cloggers and give blokes like Elton and McBean a go.

Need to find out once and for all if they're worth keeping before we cull the list at season's end.

No way, we still have faith we will play finals. When the smart clubs start managing their lists in the second half we'll start banking some "moral boosting meaningful wins" to give us the kick start into a cherry ripe locked and loaded 2017

Yeah....

.... would rather tank and just see if the kids are any good TBH. Would also be thrilled never to see blokes like Chaplin wear the jumper again....

Although i am not sold on McBean, re inds me of Jayden Post - just not enough intensity

I actually want to see all the kkds given some decent time

We are getting hammered in the media about our liack of depth, actually people on here bang on about it as well; me included

But thinking about it the other day in a way we don't know how lacking our depth is because we don't trial our "depth". We just recycle the same old same old

Play the kids, see what they offer and we might actually discover we have some decent players who offer a helluva lot more than our other so called "depth"

Na, Torch posts like a person who knows his stuff.

Peg is an American female who cannot possibly do this.
