Mad if you did. You’d have an awfully sore foot.

Carlton offered us a trade for the Tsatas pick as well?

All I remember hearing was Dees and Bulldogs offered us picks for our pick. Did we ever find out who Bulldogs wanted?

Every draftee has strengths and weaknesses.

The issue was Tsatas’ strengths and weaknesses were similar to Parish and Sheil, who we already knew were a bad combination together

It would be good to see him.playing afl but surely its not the end of the world. Earning his spot, developing skills and fitness. Building resilience. Players can develop in the vfl, geelong do it well. Will be a test of the young lad and how.much he wants it. Hope he becomes a star, preferably.with us.

Shiel sub again, seems like it’s more the defensive game of Setterfield that’s keeping Tsatas out of the 22 atm.

Also a test of our sparkly new development program

I thought it was meant to be that Brad was prioritising Shiel over Tsatas

You are delusional.

Imagine being tsatas watching this and going “I can’t get into THIS midfield?”

This thread has enlightened me on why he’s not getting a game. Presume there will be a lot of players not getting a game next week.

Watching this, his non selection given where we are at it utterly indefensible.

And the jury is out on the kid, but we need to know.

because a ball chasing midfielder who can’t kick and defend is exactly the key ingredient that we are missing.

yes shock horror half the side shouldn’t be getting a game, by that logic neither should this kid, because he ain’t going to improve the shitshow that is this club.

Tonight’s game shows we are miles off it. Even though I don’t think Tsatas is much chop , just play him.
This season is done

Especially when Durham is currently on 17 touches the most for our mids and Elijah can’t get a look in, it’s a bloody joke

Tell me who in our midfield tonight is doing a good job ?

no one is the side as a whole has done a good job.

tsatas playing tonight wouldn’t have changed anything though.
pick and play him if you want, but he ain’t changing the shitshow that happened tonight, or against any top side

I agree he isn’t changing this result, but it seems that Elijah gets hammered on criticism of doesn’t tackle doesn’t chase so that’s why he doesn’t play if that’s the case the same should apply for the ones playing tonight

Not the point though is it? You’d rather lose like this with Tsatas in the team than Shiel, Setterfield et al.

i don’t necessarily disagree.

I’m over the sanctimonious bullshit that certain posters go in with, that this kid would be doing anything different than producing the same crap as the rest of the side tonight.
