Grimes was taking upfield by Cameron so he couldn't effect the play down back spoil etc that matchup we needed to change.
That's where Broad comes in. Then again, I would have thought Vlastuin could have followed Cameron up field.

Well he won't be doing that again if we meet in the Grand Final. Dimma and the match committee will have something very different for Charlie that day. He and Mitch are their two most volatile players. Come the GF, both can expect to be Dimma's special projects for 2020.

My changes would be
Broad for Houli
Markov for Pickett
Lynch for Chol
Caddy or Ross for Aarts

Broad to free up Balta to play ruck
Mix of Markov and Shed to play wing
Lynch no brainer
If we bring in Ross we could play Bolton predominantly forward adding another avenue to goal.
Caddy for his experience it’s a 50/50 on him or Ross for me.
 
Easy. Like taking candy from a diabetic
I know we should win and if we play well we will win. I just hope the right selections are made.
 
Ok, buddy. And in the past few seasons, when Dimma has been out coached and we got beat, how do we go when we play that team the next time?
like you mate I am anxious. Lets leave it at that, we want the same things. Coahces need to be on it.

I like those, but they're not going to drop Houli for one bad game. I thought there were plenty just as bad or worse than him.

Are people serious about Houli?

The guy that was AA last year and could very easily have 2 norm smiths around his neck?

That’s the thing,one game,a very small sample size,after the bye also.

Chol is an enigma,one of those players who will try his heart out but struggle for a few games then plays a ripper.

Some interesting times at the selection table.
 
Can’t agree with you there SB. Soldo is pretty good at getting his hand on the ball in centre bounces and tapping it to advantage.

Well, he offers you more than Chol straight away then. Go with him, and if Lynch isn't right then put the resting ruck forward to chop out JR.

I watched the game closely and I honestly believe it was the reason the tiges lost.
 
Chol doesn't choose the teams. If you think its obvious it was going to happens again, then your blame should be on the selectors.

Just those guys? How about Dusty after quarter time? Houli did nothing. Grimes 5 touches and Cameron 3 goals? Aarts did nothing. Baker had little impact. Balta had little impact. Jack had little impact. Prestia first game back and it showed. Even Edwards was below his normal play.

Cotch, Vlaustin, Astubry, Short, Rioli, Graham probably only ones that get a pass mark for me. And none were amazing.
agree completely, as poor as chol was he can't get scapegoated (and I'm sure he won't internally). There's massive room for improvement across the board

I’m Confused SB. You are aware I assume that Soldo is gone for a year with an ACL? He’d be playing if available. And I agree that playing someone alongside JR was the thing we severely lacked. Made it far too easy for Andrews.
I think on reflection that Caddy would have been a better option than Chol as he is hard at it and could/would have assisted Jack in marking contests.
Unlike others, I wouldn’t move Balta from defence, I’d use Dave Astbury as the short term relief ruckman.
 
On replay : not as bad as I thought. Houli mis directing handball. Nank was actually good. Q4 we spud up 3 or 4 forward entries. George then Pickett then Dusty. Is the game. That would've matched their run in the second. Opportunistic goals. With 100m penalty taken no where it should have been but Neale kicked it anyhow. Stick with Cads for Aarts too. Pickett clanger kicks starting to get annoying. What Ross was doing earlier on.

Yep. But from reading the comments on here and on twitter, the fans sure are scapegoating him.

Can't imagine the abuse he will be receiving on social media. Will just be amplified by his skin colour too sadly.

Hope he comes back next year with a point to prove. Because he does have talent and he is our best set shit by a mile.
