dont care what people say but the logic is justified as is form and performance

Rance a kpd goes down should have been replaced with a kpd to me that is Balta there is only him and garthwaite as options.
 Grimes gets suspended the only option left is Garthwaite again a tall defender for a tall defender.
Riewoldt goes down the best tall option remaining is Moore a tall for a tall.

Caddy is injured a big medium sized player who plays fwd with stints in midfield. what do we do we play Weller lmfao. the real option is RC-D 193cm powerful mid who could do exactly what Caddy does spend 80% time fwd with a few short stints thru the middle and in his case we get afl experince into him a win win.

Houli is injured and the best performed hb at the club atm is Stack a player unlike Houli Short and Ellis does not have defensive issues.

Grigg a bigtall mid who provides mainly run and spread  jJack Ross a big mid who runs and spreads and actually uses the ball better he has been in great form

Butler has really stunk it up big time horrid and unacceptable describes him atm. Bolton has again performed in the two's and actually gives us a mid field rotation as well as a sml fwd option.

lastly id play anyone in front of  Ellis and Short who both hear footsteps from a hundred paces away it should not be tolerated ever.

Want to fix structure get a bit of size and aggression into the team then the only options are younger players there is no one else, those others  and there aint many with some sort of experince have mostly been shown up as not good enough.

Play the kids reward good form in the two's and stamp out the mediocrity in the seniors.

Honestly mate you lose all credibility when you start talking about the ball use of Jack Ross as if you've seen him play.

Not to mention bagging Short and BEllis for being soft when the guy in #23 is at the very least on par with them...:shh

Ross ain't Matty Suckling or Caleb Daniel but his ball use looks pretty good for an bullocking inside mid....looks better than what Prestia and even Martin are currently serving up,,,and better than what we used to see from Jackson, Tuck, Miles, Thomas, Conca, etc ,,,of course that's only in JLT & VFL practice matches so far,,, :shh

Short & Markov were drafted as forwards and that's where they should play,,,,,could almost say the same about Astbury at this point too (1/2 jk)..,,,a few blokes in the backline who shouldn't really be there... :shh :shh

From the man who thinks Ellis is a inside contested beast really should be the last person talking about credability.I love it it when nuffies like you show just how butt hurt you are.  im sure somewhere along the line you will get something right  but until then keep the laughs coming.

I miss the good old days when people were complaining about how the engraving on our premiership cup wasn’t centred and how our song sounded slightly different to normal and not that our game style and player performances were poor

Yeah, in my opinion Ellis is the hardest bloke to have ever crossed the white line. I know you'd take a side step if he was coming the other way....like stuffing whoa, like stuff, you know it bro....:shh

Anyway let us know how your Demons go this weekend. Because we all know that's who you're normally watching in that basement, I'm pretty sure VFL games aren't streamed in WA so I can't blame ya

The whole team needs to lift no doubt about it including Dimma and his crew there not escaping criticism either. Lambert,Prestia,Martin,Butler,Edwards,Rioli,Higgins,Short need to lift  more fullstop stop coasting around and get back to basics.Tackling and pressure hard running starts there.

The engraving was a cheap and nasty job that didnt pay respect to the achievement.

Leppitsch said Caddy is "very close" and was "touch and go" to play seniors this week.

Sure play the Kids. I agree. But you just cant have over a quarter (6 out of 22) of your team with little or no experience. The only experience they will get is loosing and there wont be enough experience on the park to help them out.  4 Max would be where I would draw the line. Its about what Port and Geelong are doing at the moment.

Prestia rumour - a hammy/corkie?
I do remember seeing Prestia get what looked like a corky in last weeks game. He looked pretty sore and proppy after that incident.
So it wouldn’t surprise me if he was out.
