Yeah hopefully in a few weeks time those 2 young guns in with one of those older guys out along with another playerWhat are the medium/long-term benefits of playing both a 30 year old Hugh Greenwood and a 28 year old Jed ANderson over Tom Powell and/or Will Phillips?
IMO given where we're at, there should only be one of them in and at least one, but preferably both of the latter two
Inb4 it's Brandon Walker.Walker will kick 3
You campaigners need to listen to the acurate one occasionally . Just sayin
Got the ins right, 50% on the outs.In ; Corr, McKay amd Anderson
Out; Taylor , Atu, Mahony and can’t remember lol
No wonder none of our kids highly rated draftees have yet to become stars over the compStill think it’s amusing jed in after 13 touches and 75% game time last week and had the week prior off with tightness
No preseason also
Yet Powell has to put weeks together even after a full preseason and full matches in the vfl
Infairness Bonar injured himself after the Wednesday training session . Did you guys know that we train the selected team away from those not selected ? And Walkers trained with the forwards that’s the other indicator . I look forward to the day Josh trains with the orange peelers lolGot the ins right, 50% on the outs.
Ahhh right, sounds like it's a Monty thenTraining with forward group
He isn’t and I highly doubt the club think he is either . They realise I’m sure how valuable a commodity Comben is and are treating him as such .What makes you think Josh Walker in his 12th year of AFL would be any better?
In Phillips case - because he's struggling to get through half a game at the moment. Powell should be in.What are the medium/long-term benefits of playing both a 30 year old Hugh Greenwood and a 28 year old Jed ANderson over Tom Powell and/or Will Phillips?

I'm shocked tbh. Especially after the acting chief came out and talked about female umpire harassment. I thought they'd double down and pretend that she did no wrong and it's just people trolling.Speaking of changes, umpire fans will be interested to note that Eleni doesn't seem to have gotten a game this week.
She hasn’t been dropped. They only have 27 available this week so they all get a gig. If not selected she must be unavailableLOL. Umpiring twat on Twitter was certain that she hadn't made any mistakes and those bullshit HTB decisions were correct. Enjoy the ammo league, Eleni.
It seems bad now but your septum will thank you.no Charlie by the look of things
It would be easier if he wasn't such an insufferable campaignerYou campaigners need to listen to the acurate one occasionally . Just sayin
Bonar out with injury made me almost throw my glass at the wall. Absolute bullshit after coming in to such an awful matchup, hopefully it's just awareness.
Would have been happy with any of Phillips/Powell/Jed in for Mahony, so that's a tick from me. My eyebrow is a little raised that it's Jed over Powell but I'll be generous and assume they just want the harder edge and they think jed is ready for a full game.
Walker forward just makes me sad. Completely expected though. Good luck to him.
He had 11 of those touches in the first half in the middle then sat on the forward line while Powell and Phillips ran around ineffectively in the middle. The ball never seemed to go near the forward line while he was there.Still think it’s amusing jed in after 13 touches and 75% game time last week and had the week prior off with tightness

He needs to put a "current cookie level" rating with his predictions. It would make it easier to sort the shit stirring from the genuine predictions.We listen to you all the time and then you get stuff really wrong and we aren't sure how to compute that against everything else you say.
Like you, I'm hugely sympathetic to supporting the future, but let's unpack it a little bit. Phillips is coming back from an illness which if not managed could lead to chronic fatigue that would plague him for years - not sure of his TOG in the VFL, but safe to assume he's still being managed. Powell started well last year - and broke down, has had some interruptions coming back and his VFL form is not electric. Just for the sake of the conversation, we can throw in Charlie Comben, who a lot want preferred to Walker - Charlie can't manage 6 games straight without pulling up sore, and hasn't since even his junior days.What are the medium/long-term benefits of playing both a 30 year old Hugh Greenwood and a 28 year old Jed ANderson over Tom Powell and/or Will Phillips?
