I think Blakiston will play primarily as a defender based on that team sheet

I have no idea how Jones and Blaki were selected but I’m gonna ignore that and just be be happy Kondo, Roberts and Clarkey are in the team.

Writing on the wall for SEH, Cox & maybe Setterfield.

This club is a dead set sh*t show.

Our culture is f*cked. Completely and utterly.

Blackiston and Jones…. Are you f*cking kidding me?

I nearly choked reading these ins. Surely we are tanking ? It’s a complete and utter joke.

Scott wouldn’t drop players because he had no one deserving of selection to bring in.

Solly is dropping players even though there is no one deserving of selection to bring in.

I’m frustrated with those selections like everyone, but I can see the dilemma.

A club which is rebuilding, tanks by playing the kids……. Not gifting games to mediocre list cloggers.

We don’t need to tank against the reigning premiers on their home patch. This is a legitimate selection.

Never seen a club be so useless at using the VFL as a development tool

No, but he is using his old play book for selection.

Jones has another year on his contract & didn’t Blakiston sign a 2 year extension earlier this year?

Should be both payed out end of season

Sometimes you just have to cut your losses.

Jones is empirically useless. This year he averages 7 disp (with 2 clangers a game) for a total of 1 goal and 1 goal assist.

I would cut him and damn the consequences.

I’m just glad we locked him down, so other clubs couldn’t poach him

We should make the inclusion of, at least 3., additional listed players (didn’t what to mention names mid season) a condition of any trade proposal.

He never gets a decent run at it does he.
