Dimma reckons both Cotch and Dusty will play next week.


About Cotch:
"Trent ran full speed today. Once again, conservative call, but we'll welcome him back next week, which will be good."

About Dusty:
Our expectation is he'll play this week."

I'd drop Bolton for giving away the 2 x 50 metre penalties

That was shocking and so incredibly stupid.

Outside of that thought he was average

INS: Cotchin, Martin, MacIntosh

OUTS: Bolton, Baker and BEllis (too much bab BEllis today)

I’d play Bolton .. don’t understand why people want him out so quickly

I might be missing something

Had 10 disposals last week and again this week
Gave little today
Set up goals when the game was on the line in the first half.....

Must watch a different game to me 🤦‍♂️
Did you watch the game at all? Stats show he had 3 score involvements all in the first half which set up the win...... :shh

Out Chol, Bolton, Ellis
In. Martin, Cotchin, Balta

There were a few others that didn't justify a game next week and I could pretty much guarantee this will not be the charges but it's my selections.

Yep Bolton losing form at the wrong time of the year I feel.
Thought he was underwhelming today.

I'd drop Short before Bolton.

K Mac in, I think we are missing his gut running.

Brandon “Snugglers” Ellis was atrocious especially in that first half. I counted atleast three times in that first half he needed a new pair of undies.  :banghead

Apart from the idiotic double 50 my main issue with Bolton's game was all the half-hearted tackling efforts.... :shh

Does it actually count as a replay if he hasn't watched it before? :shh

Bolton played very poorly in particular in the second half. He turned the ball over needlessly and gave away that needless penalty.  Agree with INS however not sure about dropping Baker.

We won't play with one ruck and go shorter against the Eagles. If Chol is to be dropped then Soldo has to come in. IMO it wasn't the day for talls. Jack was ordinary too apart from kicking 2 goals.

I wouldn't bring back Cotch yet. Give his hammy the extra week.

In: Dusty
Out: Ross

Agree with comments about Jack. Not up to his usual high standards.

I must admit I watched the game from a bar in Bali but I thought Baker was good.

And I thought the Bolton free kick was BS to start with and the 2x 50’s were even bigger BS.
Let’s not hang him for an over zealous moron umpire.

The reason we are where we are this year are because of players like Baker and Bolton and a few other young guys, and dropping them would be a mistake IMO.
