I donāt think they care that much. Allen goes into the backline if if they are down by 100 at half time.
Elias Tsatas aside, weak team changes

Weāre still playing Kelly?
Will probably be the sub.
As expected. I would have liked davey to stay in
Reckon weāre getting closer to seeing the end of tippa. This week was the week, his non selection with a month to go is pretty telling imo
Yeah I reckon he is done, and probably fair enough too.

Good for Tastas, excited to see him. Still no Baldwin is baffling to me.

I thought itād be Kelly & Snelling out, Tsatas in
Close but Davey the one who cut. Who definitely still wasnāt up the pace of AFL, he did cop a knock early on also that probably impacted though.
There is no way at this stage of their development we are playing both Baldwin and Cox in our backline at present so ideas of Lav being dropped for Baldwin was never happening IMO
Kelly is the interesting one. BDB does have to get a look over the list and see who may be able to play elsewhere. Kelly is one of our best endurance runners and defensive by nature, trialing him to tag opposition dangerous wingers maybe has some merit. Certainly prefer that scenario than them say putting Setterfield out there which they did vs Boak. Kelly much stronger over the ball and at the man than Cox, Martin and probably Durham too
If it doesnāt work so be it but I can see some potential thinking behind. Iām rapt it means Hind stays in defence because at his best he can really spark us and his overlap run last week did that.
Well done to Tsatas on the debut. Exciting times for the kid and the club.
And clearly yes we are still trying to make finals. As we should be aspiring to.
We win our last 4 and will be thoroughly deserving of too

Losing faith in scott.
Tsatsas comes in for a couple of token games at the end of the season when itās clear he could have been playing after a couple of VFL games.
Davey comes in for one, was subbed out, then dropped (great way to build confidence).
Kelly who played up forward because he has no position in the team not dropped despite Baldwin being playing good footy and being able to replace either he or Kelly.
He is a safe, boring, unimaginative coach at the selection tableā¦worse than rutten, probably on the same pegging has worsfold.

And we do they will have stuff all impact like Davey
Cant play kids for the sake of playing them if they come in they need to perform
Baldwin says āfark off Nino. Iāve been consistently good in the 2ās all year and clunking them in defence whilst the opposition slaughters us for inside 50āsā

He is soo stuck in his ways that he doesnāt no any other wayā¦fast forward 2 yearsā¦if this continues and we are middle ranked still he will be getting his marching ordersā¦.letās hope he changes his selection ways because right now they are not sharp.

he is just a kid, he isnāt going to come on and be BOG. Kids needs multiple games in a row. In one week and out the next does nothing for them
They are not token games heās getting. Tsatsas has earnt his spot by playing well in the vfl for a few weeks.
Maybe if guys like Davey can peform well every week in the vfl he keeps his spot.
Not expecting to be him bog he needs to contribute if he comes in. I hardly notice Davey when heās playing almost playing like a man short because how little he contributes
