Na, Jack in for pitt. Pitt is bog average at everything except taps. We need to back tdk in to become the gun he has the potential o become. Tdk is average as a forward/ ruck so Jack complements him well. Pitt backup ruck.
Unrelated to the quoted post, does Kennedy get back in? I still don't see us being better with cripps, Hewett and Kennedy in the one team. Have enjoyed seeing more rotations through the cba with cunners, Fogarty, etc.
Have to chose between Kennedy and Hewett IMO. It's a hard one but I had Kennedy very slightly ahead before he went down.

Think the most relevant evidence was the 2nd half of last year, when we still had best 22 players out, and others that came into the side played their role

Looks like we're developing quite a big D word

Fair chance Weitering will come back through playing in the VFL as Young and Kemp will be hard to displace 
But seriously, for all the knocks on those 2, damn they have a crack and played well tonight. Well done legends!

It is absolutely time to change up the connotation of “D Word”
No longer is the prime derivative Depth in my opinion, it is Dynasty.
We are coming off one of the greatest home and away victories in our history. We conquered the hardest away trip in the competition in spectacular fashion.
We were missing Walsh and Weitering, two superstars of the game a well as Martin and Marchbank, two locks in our best 23. Also missing Elijah Hollands who has all but locked himself in to the top team during our pre season.
Three arguably best 22 players in Pittonet, Corey Durdin and the injured Silvagni and Cincotta who is firmly in the debate for the team. Not to mention quality depth insurance like Sam Durdin.
Jack Carroll has already elevated from depth and development status to claim a best 23 spot.
Then we have highly promising youngsters almost assured of making the grade in Binns, Cowan, Moir, Wilson, and likely import Rob Monahan who we can add to our promising big men in Lemmey and O’Keeffe.
I don’t think it is disrespectful to state our only questionable listed players are project ruck Mirkov who has been stalled by illness, Cat B defensive swingman Akuei and young rookie Matt Carroll who we have yet to see in action.
Then we factor in that we only have two current player to reach the “mature” age of thirty, when most player exhibits signs of decline.
We are currently in the top echelon of teams, with large numbers genuinely pushing for opportunity, with many likely to be starved of opportunity in the short term.
Just to top it off, we have two quality father/son prospects most likely to add to the list at the end of this season, with, in my opinion, a budding superstar two years later (Cody Walker, who has a younger brother who may be in the same conversation, Arli)
Other than finding the next generation of key position players, our list is “set”. Lemmey and likely forward/ruck O’Keeffe have us arguably half way to through that task.
