I missed the part where Wines missed half the PS, had COVID (or was in COVID iso), and came back in with 3 other underdone players the same week.

Other than that, fair comparison.

I don’t recall Kelly or Yeo missing half the pre-season.
Shuey missed two matches.

Wines has been out of action for two weeks.

Wines was hospitalised with a heart issue, so hopefully Port have done their due diligence and he can “run the game out”.

Not comparing, just an example of if your “best” players are deemed fit to play, they play at the top level. We (WCE) are not an outlier in doing this 🤷‍♂️

4 clearly underdone guys all at once isn't even in the same ballpark.

You can stagger them back into the team, especially when one of the guys dropped just played his best game ever for the club. And more especially when you've done the exact same thing under a year ago, talked about how it failed, and proceeded to do it again.
 
You bring them back through the WAFL to get fitness. Doesn't matter how well they work together if they're stuffed after the first contest.
Sadly in the second half last week the three amigos put in more than any others in the team. the are several levels above most of the team.
Begrudgingly Simmo is right you dont plough a field with a Ferrari

Once Sydney took the foot off the pedal of course.

Regardless, if your three leading possession getters for a game are backmen, then the midfield hasn't done their job.

I agree that the midfield needs to build "synergy" by playing together, but it doesn't mean you throw them all in at once without proving their match fitness first IMO. It's a last ditch effort to save the season, at the cost of the future.

“They need to play together to get synergy” … but one guy was on managed minutes and another spent half the game in the backline, having been on managed minutes in the Wafl the week before.

Just beggars belief.

This has been one of the best weeks on bigfooty. News filtering in the O’Brien is on the way out and Miguel Sanchez is joining the sack Simpson brigade. Warm fuzzy feels. Welcome my friend 🥰
 
I mean, I haven’t said anything like that, but little details like that never stop you do they.
Come bro, I know you’re warming to it. Don’t stay in the closet forever. I reckon it would double the podcast listeners
Completely missed the point.

“Links to our club” should not be a prerequisite.

Congrats, you managed to quote my post from another thread that starts “completely missed the point”, while also completely missing the point of the post yourself.

That’s quite the degree of nuffie difficulty.
