It's so annoying. For a club that considers itself to demonstrate an 'elite high performance athletic' lifestyle, you have a bloke constantly present himself in poor condition.

Scott McMahon is a really decent bloke and I consider him a very smart footballer. But appearances surely can't lie that much. He should've been made to turn up lean and ready like Michael Walters was made to. He certainly trimmed down a bit but still looks to have a poor condition for AFL.

Sometimes you have to try something a bit different, what do people think about McMahon in the forward pocket to replace Sammy W? Before you shoot me consider his football smarts his ability to use his body in a contest and his accurate kicking? Don't get me wrong (despite my man love for Scotty) I'm in the camp that says he is too slow for the back line but up forward he might offer more?

I've long argued for the same thing, Scott is a very crafty forward.

But it would be a change from the status quo and that's not on.

Max Warren has been posting encouraging numbers. If he comes on as a lockdown defender that actually curtail the medium types our list will be looking better.

Wood, Jacobs and Greenwood in this week for wright, mckenzie and maybe basti for his piss poor effort.

Did Cam Delaney play?

Did Cam Delaney play?

Yeah all that was written on him was he played part in the ruck

Eric Wallace leading the way with 7 tackles! Get him in this week.

Can Bon just pick the 22 inform players, instead of the usual 22 players.

I'm sick of playing out of form players and getting embarrassed.

You can't possibly think we lost round 1 at the selection table?

If it's pain we want to see inflicted then he's the man. He'd have the biggest tackle ever to hit an AFL field!

Pretty sure none of these complaints about selection were made before the game. I recall a remarkable level of satisfaction.

McMahon selection was a mistake and wright hasn't really been ripping in it.
Bmac has never got enough of the ball to be in the team.

Yeah we're just shit

As opposed to the guys who missed out who were in dominant form.

There would've been outrage if McKenzie was left out. BF was ready to put him in the HOF after NAB3.

Unfortunately, due to a chance in my role at Werribee I no longer get a copy of these.
