Changes for next week against the Dogs?

[Damo]

NAISMITH isn't experienced for us, but good bye with no thank you

Just curious the need for the last part ?
Maybe you can explain it ?

Seems a good fella .. teammates love him .. trying hard

Wouldn’t it be “thanks for your service and efforts , would you consider staying at the club in a mentoring capacity and being a key cog in our VFL side?”

Or is treating people like pigs (you’ve suggested treated Dusty far worse than he deserves as well) something you think is effective ?

Because it seems to be your M.O.

Maybe it’s a Sicilian thing?

INS: Balta, McAuliffe, Prestia,

OUTS: Naismith, KMac, Short

I'd bring Prestia back through the VFL myself but they won't.

If Balta isn't right to go then I'd go with Ryan but I can't see them bringing in both

Cumberland needs to back his 2nd half from yesterday before he gets the call.

Short, I cannot and will not excuse the inexcusable. There was one "effort" (I'm using that term very loosely) in the 3rd was pathetic, cost us a goal and any chance of getting back in the game. He is one of the VCs he failed to set an example today.

Nothing has changed for me and i have only seen the first half. Its not all about now its very much about better structure biigger bodies and natural players in their natural positions and very much the future.

Clawskis ins
If they are all fit then this has to be the way to go.FFS why are we relying on a 6 game 26 year old new to the game with no support to carry the forward line in Lefau. For gods sake injuries or no injuries you still need to play with structure.
Why do we keep playing fumblers and bumblers and basically non forwards.

for the next 5 weeks given availability the team has to be structured properly with who ever is available..It needs to be structured with as many younger players as possible who are natural players in their roles. Lets see what they have to offer.

No more Tylar young if possible. No more McIntosh Short Graham Dow even MRJ and the list goes on. lets sort the wheat from the chaff.

Okay have settled down a bit, my team this week and no surprise it remains heavily weighted to. youth, good structure, players in their primary  roles  and a good sprinkling of experience to help the kids survive.
