Markov out before Ellis.

Sure he took a nice contested mark but then he shanked the set shot and that was the whole of his fwd contribution.

No that wasn't it. What about the pathetic hospital handball to Prestia who was half a metre away

I see nothing in Mrakov at this stage

I meant as a forward because that was a defensive contribution  :rollin

So he did nothing as a forward and as a defender. Got it

VFL standard and if I'm being truthful he ain't much better than Ellis. Only difference is he can't be written off yet like Ellis

Are you off Ellis now Francois?
That has cut his supporters down by half.

Yeah I'm off him and have been for some time, but is he any worse than what guys like Weller, butler and lambert have dished up?

All of them have been average and if we had depth should all be dropped

We do have depth but most of those guys have "runs on the board" and so are given extra chances. How many extra chances should anyone be given is what most of us argue here...... :shh
OER. Calling it as it is since 2004.

I would bring in Moore for Jack.
I would play Soldo against Simpson.
I would bring in Balta to play CHB. Mrakov goes.
If Garthwaite's corkie is ok, he comes in for Grimes.
Weller goes out for Baker.
Houli in for Ellis

I don’t mind this list, I’d leave Balta in as the unpredictable 2nd ruck/forward so he comes in for Jack. If not, I’d roll the dice and play CCJ but we know Dimma won’t play 2 rucks as he stated as much in the press conference.
Therefore, Balta in for Jack, Baker in for Weller, Houli in for Ellis, Garrhwaite for Grimes
“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.
