Can’t believe young dropped. Happy about it though. Balta would have to go back for some extra height

Would have kept Coulthard in year. Smith again overlooked

Sampson  :lol

It's only fair that now we're 18th on the ladder, I show the faith back in the club and do everything I can to put them in front. In the end, I'm stoked I made the decision to stay. I f***ing love this club”

I was looking at our backline with young going out and no kpd’s coming in thinking that we looked severely undersized. Completely forgot about Balta being a defender.

I hope he does play in defence as we need him. Thought Kosi might have been a chance as we do look small all over the ground.

You would have to suspect Balta has been told he is going to the backline Saturday night. No chance you could lose the height there and not replace it. With Ryan in (good to see rewarded for form), it's sort of makes it more likely Balta moves back. (And I bloody hope so)
Glad to see young dropped due to form, but there should have been a few to join him.
Go tiges.

Hopefully the penny's finally dropped with the coach that Young is in fact a completely useless, barely VFL level dud.... :shh

Only to learn the same thing up forward by playing Sampson

That's because he's a ruckman who played his best footy last year when Nank & Soldo were both out  .....and he's still better than Koshitske..... :shh

Comparing him to Koshyteski is like compared danny boy to allan ….
