Outs- Garthwaite, Soldo,       Bellis, Houli, Butler- enough of these softies

Ins- Rioli, Townsend, Lambert, CCJ, Naish

It’s not about blokes having a poor game, it’s about blokes that bring our intensity down with their effort.

Outs:
Broad (worst game and has played maybe 1 passable game all year - don’t know why he hardly gets criticism on here he’s been terrible all year)
Higgins (second year blues? Too much dinky business and no penetration - 0 disposals 3rd qtr)
Lynch (such a useless waste of money and talent when he refuses to play properly, very lazy game) 
Butler (go back and try again)

Ins:
Naish (deserves a run)
Townsend (will attack the footy and smash the packs).
Lambert (back from injury)
Chol (Surely can’t do worse than what Lynch gave us tonight)
The club that keeps giving.

Seen enough of Menadue- the last thing we need is another soft, weak, one way runner that lacks tenacity and dislikes body contact.
VFL standard at best.

Lambert's run will go a long way if he can get up.

I've never been a fan of Broad. I'm always nervous when he has ball in hand. It's a shame with Rance out he's basically a lock.

I think Higgins could use a rest. He hasn't snagged one in a while and I think it's the case of 2nd year blues. Unleash Naish!

We all have our opinions but I disagree. Graham is the other who could come in...at least he sticks tackles!

I like his running ability, he does run both ways. His decision making and kicking is in out top bracket. He has a great understanding of our game plan and I still see upside.

I agree he is not the hardest player but we need balance in the team and ones who have pace and are clean.

IMO should be played every week before some others who have already peaked.
