Sanders to Tas confirmed

Taking Bont with him? ☹

 

[Bulldogs85]

Is being made sub a kind of rebuke for his behaviour last week?

If you wanted to make a statement about sanders behaviour last week. I would of thought he would be playing in the VFL

I hope not because if a key position player goes down, we're ****ed

 

[Dogs 13]

And Tim just said the ruck is a position you need to be physical in

Its more likely a reflection of the tapering in his form after 5 tough games.

People expect way too much from 1st round draft picks during their initial season.

Bevo is the one that talked the young lad up

 

[MaxiBont]

The biggest knock on Sanders is that he lacks match fitness. Give him a game in the 2s then instead of giving him a quarter and half of footy. Would be way more beneficial.

I don’t get how anyone could be happy with Sanders as a sub, just bad for development all round.

His performances have been above average imo

Imagine talking up a 1st round draft pick during the pre-season.

Crazy stuff.

Maybe he should shut his mouth then people won’t expect to much on first round picks

 

[JTCWBFC]

I'll be ******* ecstatic if Dale plays on the wing.

Its a positional move that has been way over due.

He was on the wing when he came on last week got 3 touches.

Exactly this. I think he has been solid and one of our best before being subbed out last week.
However if he is getting subbed in or out every week because of Match fitness or general fatigue a first year player encounters, then it'd be much more beneficial to either have a week off or be managed through a few games at VFL level.
To me the Sub needs to be a high impact player that is going to bring a hit of speed to the game.

What exactly did he say that you take issue with?

Dont be obtuse.

For better or worse he is the public figurehead of the club and part of his job is to upsell the squad during pre-season.

Whether fans swallow it or not is entirely on them.

Haven’t really liked any of our subs this season. Macrae, Daniel, Dale, none of these guys are high impact players that I like as well.

 

[DueWest]

Here we go hopefully we are switched on and prepared to defend and run hard this week and not like last

 

[Bulldogs85]

What exactly did he say that you take issue with?

Saying that he is the most advanced player that he has seen coming through the club. That may be true but don’t you think that puts pressure on a 18 year old kid

VDM would be a great sub imo, good against tired legs and can play multiple positions

 

[Bulldog Brent]

We’re starting favourites with TAB.

 

[Dogs_R_Us]

I want a big game from Naughton tonight

 

[Chicago1]

Dear Tim,

Play tough tonight, OK?

Yours truly,

It boosts his confidence, I would have thought

 

[Doggies_13]

Garcia warming up with the forwards so is west

 

[Doggies_13]

Richards with the mids

 

[out of finals]

Baz in the commentary box with BT, extremely confused

 

[Wocka]

Not many here. Thursday night sucks.
