Agree. Their backline was thin before Keath and Bruce went down this week. We need marking targets.

Looked far off it. The benefit of having him out there was it afforded Jack 5 shots on goal.
I’d probably persist a couple more weeks even if it’s just taking pressure off Jack, but hopefully he starts making his own impact.

Showed some signs. Keep playing him.
Dog's were on from the get go.
We had few good players. Bauer Missed one mark but was hit up by Pickett kicked a good goal.
Bauer ahead of Miller or Ryan means we need soldo too.
Coulthard probably didn't do enough.... bush league player to the AFL sounds like a fairy tale. My favourite fairy tale.. Grimm.
Dunno what metric our recruiters use
. I'd have Mansell back in but we have to squeeze Dusty and Cotch back in. I guess Cotch in the middle for hopper.
Mansell stays sub. Coulthard out and Bauer keeps his spot.
Every team is on form from the get go with us, watch the Dogs in most games this year and they're battling. Defensively pathetic and pathetic in transition.

He’d played 1 minute of footy in 5 weeks before last night’s game.
Keep playing him!!
Keep playing him!!
But still consistent in their starts...like greyhounds...if you let them get away it's hard to reel them in with the Maggots gifts to them...
Dropped a few last night, but he was presenting well. No point going back to Miller. May as well keep playing him.
It took Banks until his third game to have an impact. I think small forward is the only role where players seem to be able to come in and contribute straight away.

I don't see them much but saw them last week vs GWS on TV. A 3 goal to 1 goal 1st Qtr. is what I was referring to. But we conceded 9 goals to 2 and it was game over career best games for Dogs KPFs. Last week Dogs biggest goal kicker were treloar & English.
Our only consolation was containing English.
Keep playing him. I reckon there's some good signs but last night we were just rocked, very hard for a virtual debutant KPF.
Didn't mind him. Not sure why we essentially debuted him off 5 weeks of no footy, but while his marks and kicks didn't quite come off he was generally close enough that there appeared to be something to work with.
Persist.
Give him another game needs to get a feel for afl level and settle the nerves
The amazing skills seem to come out against us. Whereas teams like hawthorn seem to get teams that are sleeping.
Hawthorn game had us fooled. They ran out of legs, for 3 quarters they had us on toast. We have an outdated gameplan and carrying old blokes like Grimes/Cotchin & Riewoldt who whilst absolute legends of the club are near the end. If you look at WCE it is a prime example of why holding onto older blokes for too long can really end badly.
For 3 quarters we we're passengers and yet we made minimal changes. Club has believe the hype we we're a finals chance which wasn't the case only off late we seen more kids.

Why was he dropped last week lol
To strengthen the vfl squad. the win there was more critical. I'd prefer to see Bauer & Dow in the AFL team.
Nank Soldo have been rotating KPF/ruck.
This week no Jack R, Bauer would make sense

Pretty good result for the young bloke. Hopefully we get to see a lot more of him in the seniors in 24.
I wonder if he could have a big pre-season and gain a spot in the 22
