I can't believe this many people are on the drop Tabs bandwagon. I thought I was going to get chased out of the forum for even considering it. It's great to see so many people with an eye on the future. Restoring my faith in humanity.
Treacy couldn’t mark effectively and is barely 20 games into his career. No way.
This was probably about the worst game for the forward line to play. Back them in, have synergy for the group and bounce back.
People calling for Amiss and Treacy will be very upset in opposition just pummeling them. There’s inexperience and this is it. It’ll take time with this forward line.
Logue got gifted games up forward- time to do the same for Treacy and Tabs.

We've spent multiple years waiting for this guy to work out. He's had an arm chair ride due to the fact that all our other KPF hail Mary's have failed miserably, he's the last man standing once again. Through no fault of his own he's the face of the freo shit show that has been the post pav era.
Eventually sure but just not yet.
I think if by approaching the midway point of the season we’ve still basically got the same from tabs as we’ve always got- couple great games interspersed with non existent showings all wrapped up with the usual missed games through injury AND the teams struggling to keep pace with the comp leaders , then yeah we’ve really got to say thanks Matt but your purely depth from now on and it’s the Amiss/treacy combo from here on in.
We should nickname him Bradbury.
The final straw for me , you could almost hear the clicks and whirs

I like everything about this. My only concern is if we give him until midway through the season, will that be too late and we have to write of 2023 as well?

Hey, I’ve already said it, i didn’t want to drop him, but if I wanna see the dream lineup of Amiss, Treacy and Sturt, somebody’s gotta give.
Do we drop Switta instead?

Your dreams might come true but it’ll probably mean the seasons gone to shit and we’re out of the finals race

Ha Ha! If that's the case then it's not a dream, it's a deadset nightmare.
You don't think a Sturt/Treacy/Amiss forward line is the way to go for the future? Or do you think they just aren't ready yet?

Agree with this. He gets a reprieve for the first few round but if we’re looking like missing finals it’s a case of thanks but we’re looking to the future.
Why wait? I would be proactive rather than reactive. We aren't winning a flag with Taberner in the team. Move on. By mid-season, that could be 10 games into Amiss. They all count and the sooner we get Amiss up to 50 plus senior games, the better.
Also, our early games are the "easier" ones. They are the better ones to get Amiss into the side. For example this week he could get to play on someone like Bonar or Goater, who are 188-190cm medium defenders.

I'm not mad on Treacy either but we've got to move on from the Taberner show.
Taberner's history shows he needs a few games to work his way back into form. Hopefully he gets his mojo back soon, because with Lobb gone we really need him to perform.

Taberner was not the reason we lost against saint kilda. He isn't even close to the reason we lost
He is much closer to being one of the reasons we didn't win

You win games by scoring more goals than your opponents.
You lose games by conceding more goals than your opponents.
Hence, he wasn't why we lost, more so why we didn't win.

I actually agree with you, but it took a couple of re-reads to get to that point.
My GIF work needs to lift.
Brodie!!!! really!!. He has been no better no worse than any of the other big gun mids. Will the other be looked at?
Are we forgetting just how good he was for us last year?
Tabs, Shooter, i can handle,but Brodie. I mean really.
I agree Sturt , who i was surprised was not selected in the first game and Amiss. He played pretty well on Saturday without being super.We need to get games and time into these players.
Erasmus and Johnson need to be given games as well, but what is holding them back is the fact that the WAFL has not yet started.
Yep I'm in the same boat as you.
Love Tabs - but when you've gone from being not being able to finish a season to not being able to finish a game - then you've become a liability.
