Roberts was our deepest small defender at times lining up on Kosi Pickett. That didn’t go so well for him and McGrath ended up playing on Kosi for the most part.

That is surprising.
Not saying he looks fast by any stretch, but he definitely has looked a LOT more dynamic than last year.

He recorded top speed on the ground last year as well, pretty sure twice.
Start him on the bench again this week. Keep him hungry. 4 goals don’t make a career but it can ignite one. Hopefully can kick another couple just to keep his momentum up.
Our best two small forwards are Kako and Gresham. If we go smaller he should start as part of the forward line. No reason why all 3 can’t start, considering the injuries.
Don’t see Jones getting dropped, and Caddy is a first choice forward. Maybe Perkins takes a starting role, but there’s definitely space for Menzie to start on the ground from bounce one.

I agree about SEH being more dynamic, he gives our backline a different look by adding a bit of much needed dash.
It really doesn’t matter who starts on the ground. If you start on the bench you’ll be on within 5 minutes.
You can say that and be accurate, but professional sports people recognise the difference between starting on the ground and starting on the bench.
There is an extra vote of confidence in being the guy on the ground from bounce one. Yes you’re entirely correct, the first goal kicker tends rush off the ground for a rest, and is switched for another forward, so he would be on pretty quickly.

Normal service has been resumed. 10 disposals, 0 goals, 1 behind.

Bloke is not an impact player.
What a rubbish choice for sub

Urgghh. Just make it stop
Prob in next week for Gresham.
He is literally the epitome of smythys “vanilla face panic merchant”.
I really don’t get it.
It genuinely looks like a park footballer has won a raffle to get the opportunity to run around out there. He sticks out like dog’s balls with his uncleanliness and lack of any instinct or lethality.

Really hope Guelfi gets through today, he’ll either replace gresham or menzie. He’s genuinely no good, lacks so much footy IQ. In the last quarter he had two players free running into goal and he does a high snap kick that fortunately caddy marked. Wouldn’t have happened if he was smarter and not a fkn panic merchant, really fked me off watching it live.

Remember that time a few weeks ago when aLl dA h8ErS were wrong and he was only ordinary last year because of a bung shoulder? Far out. What weapons is this guy bringing to the table? He’s just so damn average.

In the space of 5 min he dropped a chest mark, stuffed up a shot a pretty simple shot at goal, and about a minute later got falconed
Yuck
Guelfi is 28 this year and although he has a crack he isn’t getting much better. ADJ ADW or even SEH playing forward need to be the next guys in.

He just hadn’t been able to adjust to the pace of the game.
Exactly.
