Darling’s adding plenty, but is probably due a rest or a permanent demotion now that Oscar is back. Melbourne in Melbourne probably not the week for it, but it’s a flat misrepresentation to say that Darling hasn’t been an asset this year.No Gaff is one thing, darling being propped up week after week when he is contributing nothing shows selection integrity just doesn’t exist at this club and hasn’t for years.
No penalty for under performing names, no reward for effort or performance at wafl level for anyone outside of the forced changed of jack Williams who shouldn’t have been dropped in the first place.
The sooner Simpson is turfed out the better

Its not 'they' - it's Simpson. I remember hearing Hardie a few weeks ago mention there was some internal tension within Match Comittee because Simpson was so adamant on giving Hutchinson a run after one game at WAFL. He's got a love affair with him for some reason.They really love Hutchinson. After kicking five goals on debut for the Beagles he’s had three straight games where he’s barely had a possession, but they keep picking him.
The great balls up of the year was not giving dewar a decent go as he showed a lot early in the year. 1 touch player and good skills something which simmo detestsKinda baffled at Hutch getting named. Would prefer to see Dewar again or Hall get a go.

Keep grinding the axe.
It’s not SuperCoach, and I’d be happy to see him replaced permanently by JWill from now on, but again - flat misrepresentation of what Darling has added this year.Nah, keep holding on. He is as finished as any player on our list is at this stage and he should have been taken out the back at the end of last year and given the same treatment gaff has…. I think we can replace darlings 2 Marks and ten possession a week games easily enough..

Trew 33 disposals and no game.
And, conversely, if you are in his black or red book you will never be picked. I think some, like Burgiel, have given up.Ahh, yes, yet again the MCC not holding anyone accountable.
This has been going on for 3-4 years now.
What a fantastic message this is sending to the younger group.
No culture of accountability, and clear double standards.
Why would the youth bother trying to improve if the same team is picked every week? If youre in Simmo's green book, youll never be dropped!
Burgiel has absolutely not earned selection, should hardly feel hard done by.And, conversely, if you are in his black or red book you will never be picked. I think some, like Burgiel, have given up.

There are others players in that list who have not deserved selection or deserve to be dropped but are still there.Burgiel has absolutely not earned selection, should hardly feel hard done by.
