This. Whichever of White or Cloak got dropped would be unlucky. But dropping Cloke a much bigger step, so understand the decision.

This the first time Moore and Weitering line up against each other? Or did they in round 7? Could be the start of a storied rivalry.
LOL, my 12-year-old could've built that list with the picks they were given, no achievement there.

long time reader, first time lurker. I could smell a bit of sour banter from the Collingwood camp from a mile away and wasn't disappointed!

White omitted lol, what a joke the selection committee is. The same clowns that thought it was a good idea to play Cox / Witts / Grundy together.
Cloke has 1 okay game, (Kicking as many goals as White did), where as White's been reasonably good since his return.
This choice seems more like playing to the media than actual common sense.

What the **** would we have to be sour about with regards to SOS? I don't think Collingwood supporters are the only ones to see how overrated he was.

Moore has x-factor qualities.
Cloke needs to string a few AFL games together. Can't have him in-out-in-out.
White doing well, however, sometimes you just need to make room. Maybe Goldy is a better matchup on the backline for this round?

Every time they've dropped Cloke was an example of this. White should never be picked ahead of Cloke. The former was lucky to stay in after the Port game, he should've been dropped then over Cloke for the infamous 3-rucks Queens Birthday game.
LOL Oxley.

settle down fella, no need to get too worked up. Your delusional thoughts on the great man reek of angst, he's a great of the game.

-1 for your signature. You seem to be playing the negative foamers on the forum than actual common sense. Nobody expected White to be in the seniors in the first place, not even him. Cloke deserved an extended run / last chance. If anything, foam why Moore should be in front of White .
Sigh. Back to school young Davy.
Oxley isn't great but neither is Goldsack.
Add in the fact Goldsack is 29 with a chronic knee problem...

White would make us too tall with the inclusions we had. Oxley would make us too vanilla. I think that Goldsack was the correct selection call this week. You know what Goldsack will give, a good honest contest and performance.

He is not the future,the sooner you realise this the easier it will be.
Yeah I am disappointed in this decision. Think Moore should have been brought back through the twos. At least one game in the 2s before elevation wouldn't have done him any damage. Think White had done enough to hold his spot from someone camping back from a decent spell.
According to Google Goldsack is actually taller than White.
Goldsack a few years ago would've given a fierce and good contest, he's starting to slow down now and his knee problems won't help.

Playing styles Kappa. Goldsack is a mobile third tall type defender. I see White as a key defender when he plays there. I'm not sure I would risk it after a chunk of time forward at AFL level either. Goldsack more ready for the immediate role required, replacing Marsh as the third defender. The knee hasn't slowed him down that much, I reckon that's an incorrect perception of yours.
Don't start patronising mate, I was probably watching the Pies win the 90 flag when your old man was still a virgin.
Goldsack is a good, average player. Oxley is crap.

Hey jscan why hasn't he been given another contract if he has been SO good?
And you are biased whe it comes to Grundy, Moore and Aish.
Moore's performance in the 1's has not been great. They are passable given his inexperience but nothing to suggest he is an automatically selection when coming back from several weeks on the sidelines. Particularly at the expense of someone who was performing reasonably well.
Moore should have come back via the 2s.
