Don't understand why we would play a fringe player who is less than 100%.
And who is ultra injury prone.... I can't see Shaw as a bloke who will carry injuries well......

Don't understand why we would play a fringe player who is less than 100%.
Every team get analyzed looking for weakspots to the gameplan ....doesn't mean we have been worked outWe are in the home stretch now, and it's clear from the last few games, that teams have worked us out - in terms of numbers around/off the ball. I'm not surprised Sando is now looking to tweak the structure (one less tall) as well as looking at players that haven't had much of a chance up to now - particularly if it's felt they may/could have an influence come finals time. Stiffy, when fit and firing, will be straight back into the side, but I'm not convinced he'll get his old job back. Time will tell I guess. Sad for Jaensch, I think he is a good user of the ball (kicking skills some of the best in the side), but I think he's shown a fair bit more than most expected this year (given that most expected he would never get picked!), so I wouldn't be surprised to see him back either. Hope Knights makes the most of his opportunity (and that he's given more than one!). Him and Vince back to their best would just add another dimension to our team.
Which wing/half forward player do you propose he replaces?Special J will be playing next year. No question. As long as he plays half forward/wing where he will be absolutely damaging...
Cough Porplysia cough cough.Which wing/half forward player do you propose he replaces?

It is the season for it...........Cough.. fair enough... cough cough
Far cough.Cough.. fair enough... cough cough
Jaensch definitely has value, but I don't think it's as a defender - unless he doesn't have to defend.
Wasn't Shaw sore today at training?
Douglas for me.Fwiw, I would have Martin as sub.
Maybe, but i can see him being just as damaging to us unless he develops a defensive side to his game. He has no impact on a contest so I'm not sure how he intends to gain possession to use his "sublime" foot skills in the forward 50. He is too one dimensional to be a success at this level with too many deficiencies to justify a spot on the list.Special J will be playing next year. No question. As long as he plays half forward/wing where he will be absolutely damaging...
Polite round of applause.Fwiw, I would have Martin as sub.
Anyone want to recant their views in this thread. How many of us dropped Douglas, Porps and Martin?

Would still drop Doughty, maybe Reilly.
Porps good, but a footy season isn't one week.
