Glad Garthwaite has been dropped.

I know we all want him to be good but he ain’t!

I just hope we don’t need to see him again this year.

Baffled why we wouldn’t keep playing Balta- he has shown enough to warrant feeding games into him. His upside is worth the spot in the side. And playing him against some of the crapier clubs like St. Kilda will help with his confidence.

I hope Bolton comes in too. Again his upside is worth his spot in the side.

Ins for me are cotch astbury and edwards.

glad to see higgins dropped, he'll find some form.

I agree with the Balta part and Bolton ,but Garth has been thrown in to the deep to quick for someone limited games because of our injuries rushed early on in the year after limited preseason and been asked to play on monster talls with limited help.

So all those excuses/reasons just confirms you agree he has been completely out of his depth.

Would you have not of dropped him after getting 7 goals 4 kicked on him last game? And 5 odd the previous 2 games before that.

Higgins needed to be dropped. Hopefully he gains some form in the VFL.

We can’t afford to be selecting players just to get games into them now. If you are underperforming you need to be dropped and both balta and garthwaite were super poor across our three loses along with a lot of their mates to be fair to them. But now with players coming back, you have to be on top of your game to keep your place in the side.

Has to be the shortest most undersized backline of all time.lucky for us the saints have only named one genuine kpf in Bruce but i bet they bring  Sam Rowe into their team and play him fwd. And why wouldnt they after the number of times bigger sized kpfs have got hold of us.

LMFAO at the number of squibs picked in the one team and the team as usual is half full of runts.

It may be good enough to beat the saints but the set up is never going to cut it against the real good sides.

People here expecting a star player over night kid needs time.I don't agree with the bashing a few here have given him for a player played 12 or so games.Garth wasnt responsible for all those goals on him he was changing opponents and a lot he had no chance with the delivery.How about the lack of pressure from the forward line and midfield ball been coming in way to easy.

No doubt about it mate poor form gets dropped explain how Butler and Broad and Rioli there.I don't think it's clear cut that our players returning is going to mean instant improvement a lot will be under done at the same time.

[Tiger Khosh]

Think we’ll see one of if not both of butler and Rioli dropped when the team gets cut tomorrow. In any case both have been dropped this season.

As for broad he did get dropped for poor form and thought hes been better than Garth since coming back.

[Diocletian]

How does Ellis keep his spot? Has been even worse than when he first got dropped....
