Why does Dunstan play and not Bytel? Hopefully only one more game.
Because he gets **** all possessions in the seniors. There's a spot for him if he wants it.

Why does Dunstan play and not Bytel? Hopefully only one more game.
Exactly and we have to be better than that. We have to get a system in place that works regardless of personnel.If max kingdoesn’t get injured we probably win that game, completely threw us off. Very similar to how Marshall got injured the last time we played them and it threw out of structure. Oh well, our season was pretty much lost before this game anyway.PLAYERCARDSTART12Max King

Dunstan, 20 disposals at 60% efficiency, 4 tackles, 5 clearances, 8 clangers and 3 free kicks against.. not good enough.. Ratten should have just sit Dunstan on Dangerfield in the midfield and tackle him to the ground any time he touches it..And we have Bytel in the magoos
They weren't that bad. Hill and Roma were real passengers. Roma is a ruck forward by the look of it.
He is never in the seniors. How is he supposed to get AFL experience when treacle slow useless ball butchers like Dunstan are taking his spot?Because he gets fu** all possessions in the seniors. There's a spot for him if he wants it.
Dunstan, Steele and Jones were all sh*t after half time, Crouch nominally better but not much. Never seen Steele so quiet for so long.

I dont care if we get nothing for Dunstan get him out of the team, an absolute liability.
I don't think learning a new skill should feasibly take away from other attributes. It's not like bulking someone up and losing agility. He's going to tap the ball anyway, what's the harm in him tapping it a little more accuratelyHe has. Is it because we're trying to turn him into a tap ruckman? That was never his thing. He was pluck and kick type.
Dunstan couldn't go with Danger, worst spreader and running in the clubDunstan, 20 disposals at 60% efficiency, 4 tackles, 5 clearances, 8 clangers and 3 free kicks against.. not good enough.. Ratten should have just sit Dunstan on Dangerfield in the midfield and tackle him to the ground any time he touches it..
At least we know Bytel will get chances next year..
Kent, Dunstan, Ross, Billings, Long all from the Ross era.. fumble, fall over and questionable decision making or/and poor skills..

It's almost as if he needs some consistent game time and freedom.Because he gets fu** all possessions in the seniors. There's a spot for him if he wants it.
Exactly and we have to be better than that. We have to get a system in place that works regardless of personnel.
We are so fragile at the moment - we are like a Fabergé egg: beautiful and flawless for the first 25 mins then a cracked crumbly mess after King first went off with that injury.
yep you're allowed to criticise a players game without saying they're a bad player overall. Example. Steele had a fantastic first half and a poor second half. Regardless, he's a star of the competition and one of our best players.He can be great one week and sh*t the next can't he?
It's almost as if he needs some consistent game time and freedom.
Instead the dunny butcher kills the momentum again
You see how his brain works with the ball. I hope he's working with the younger mids to learn that. If we end up drafting 3 young mids in one draft I want him mentoring them 24/7On a bright note, bloody stoked for Hanners, he is class. Imagine a fit Hanners all these years. He won't get back to his peak, but hopefully he gets something positive from the rest of his footy days. It's at the point now we just keep playing him until he blows up. Maybe we've been over-sensitive with the calfs? I don't know.
Geelong had 105 more disposals, 36 more marks, 11 more clearances, 13 more inside 50s and yet we were in it right till the end
Work rate and bigger bodies killed us, we were manhandled badly in the second half.
Reinforces what we know, we need our own big bodied tall mids that work both ways. Draft time cannot come soon enough.
Props to Sinclair, super ball use.
Throw in a small bottle of Diet Coke?Pumping up his trade value
Max Heath next week please. Covid means there's no school footy. result means nothing so I'd be pissed if we injured King more, he's proven everything he needs to this year. We'd love at least a look at our new ruck and let him get his feet wet before preseason and next year. Just let him play the 200cm forward bringing the ball to ground and providing a target, let Membrey and Sharman work their magicWe need a dominant ruck man. Stanley gave their mids service we didn't even have a chop out of Roma. Joyce actually won his taps but once he was concussed by some campaigner we had no-one else.
Not with games like today. I like how Dunstan had resurrected his career, but we have too many like types and a ball butcher in Crouch, we simply cant have him and Crouch in the same team.Pumping up his trade value
Yeah he's in my AFL fantasy squad, normally gets 140 , while most of our others get 80 or less. Today he only got 100 odd.
