Love that we can see Robey in action finally. Caddy and Ridley are welcomed ins. I really hope that Tsatas proves himself and keeps his spot now for good.
Johnson a bit stiff but he will be back in the side soon, he may have pulled up sore. We have a plethora of kids playing so it’s not the worst thing if they get cycled through.
Saad also stiff although I don’t think he has a high ceiling, not compared to Johnson anyway.
Two senior players and two youth out of the side for three youth and one senior player is a good deal to me. Especially with that pick 1-2 we want this year.
Also wondering if Brad brings out Edwards/May late for Johnson/Saad pending weather
And TBH I’d be amazed if we even got that. A couple of small showers tomorrow hardly worth anything and then clear. Oval will be in ripping nick for our game
Shame Johnson lost his spot, he had 5th best rating of all our players. Guelfi is way below his best and is barely AFL standard even in a bottom 4 side. Robey was not playing well in his last game at VFL level, so this seems like its a bit contrary to form, quite the opposite with Tsatas. We have lost a bit of speed with Saad out.
Melbourne are playing at breakneck speed, but we have gone slow. Be prepared for Bombers jogging behind fast running Melbourne players for4 quarters
just watching it absolutely ■■■■■■■ down, as someone said last week, morbid curiosity now has me hoping this moron goes in with his selected side just to see a tall side in this rain.
I don’t like the selections but it will be dry for our game. Rain will be pretty much gone in the next hour. Little to no rain tomorrow and none on Saturday
He gets away with using the ‘we have debuted x number of kids in 12 months’ line which totally disregards how often it is the same kids that end up shortly being dumped back out rather than the same being applied to the senior players.
Oh well, hopefully keeps up the losing streak to a point where it is simply untenable to keep him and doesnt push us into unfavourable draft positions. Or maybe he is in on that grand plan through these poor decisions repeatedly.
