Was going to draft an email as well, but will wait to see how things go on Sunday.
Because if the TMac and BBB selections go as we all expect, it absolutely needs to be called out.

Problem is we are the playing the dogs, the way they play lets us play well normally anyway and look like a team we aren't.

You're probably right, but I'm happy to play the long game on this one. Let's see how we look after 4-6 weeks.
The emails will be flying thick and fast after a loss tomorrow. I'm still in shock both Brown and Tmac are in the senior side. What horrible list management. The last couple of offseasons in trading have been an embarrassment and clearly shows an arrogance by those in charge thinking we have the pieces. You gotta keep adding quality if you want to have a successful 'era'. And not just quality. but targeting points of need. Which is exactly what Collingwood did, and they won a flag because of it. We haven't , and we fall away and are left with Tmac and Ben Brown playing senior footy, 2 years after their expiry date.

Digging into the why
Reading Petty is nowhere near it.

Goody's press conference he said they would play him half a game in the VFL then bring him into the senior side lol
I believe Petty hardly touched it. So no doubt Goody brings him straight in next week!

It's a catch 22 this week. Petty comes in and Goody is playing favourites, Schache comes in and it's dumb selection...

It's.... not complicated? Posters here complain about Schache, posters here also complain about Goody apparently picking his favourites.

How about nether? Why must we play either a useless forward or someone completely underdone.

So you think Goody doesn't pick favourites?

I think he does, and sometimes I'm ok with it, unlike others.

Yeah totally disagree playing favourites at selection has been a massive problem since the 2021 flag.

How could you possible be in favour of favourites over merit?

Ok, so you're keen on Schache this week then?

Yes? I'm too afraid of them rushing Petty back and hurting him again, and all our KPFs suck outside Petty and JVR so might as well pick the guy with VFL form.
