Cannot believe MRJ didn't make the final team

We desperately need his defensive pressure and speed

As for Ross, absolutely no surprise at all

Dunno why they dropped Soldo instead of 'resting' Nank.

Nank was putrid last week. Soldo a bit bigger for Oscar

Match Committee have been ordinary and perplexing with their team selections in recent weeks and tonight is no exception. Playing too many defenders and the same players out of position while ignoring others who are better for our structure.

No Maurice applying forward pressure is another gift to the opposition.

Why drop Soldo who was decent in the ruck last week against the tall McInerney?

So we're going to play Balta as 2nd ruck because we don't want to drop an excess tall defender?

Finally, while it's good we've added another inside mid, Ross hasn't played for 3-4 weeks. Why not play RCD who found some form in the ressies and racked up 32 possies?

Great question

From what I've been told it is Dimma and the line coaches

Soldo moving like he’s on stilts
“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.

Nank was hardly moving at all by comparison. I think his knee is troubling him.

Best to rest him in case we make finals imo

Just bloody frustrated with what I consider bizarre selections the last 6 weeks.

Agree with WP. Maurice should be in the 22 for his forward pressure and Dimma and match committee's team selections have played their part in the past month or so's costly losses and draw. The team's structure is off and unbalanced and we're paying for it.
