Selection

[B.M]

What the hell are we doing?!

Clark, Crouch, Jones, Membrey

Running around dominating in the VFL

Collard
Ridiculously made Sub in his debut R1

Came in last week after being Worst on Ground in the VFL and low as a snake’s gut on confidence
Predictable he was horrible
Then to keep him in the side
And the sub him out?!

This comes after the disaster with Phillipou - who looked devoid of any confidence today in the VFL

What are they doing?!

They are blundering selection and mismanaging players development!!!!

This has been absolutely disgraceful by the match committee

Yep. I concur with your stated views. Well said.

Tanking.
If we were desperate to win , we would have selected those blokes.
I want to know if the playing group are aware of this policy to tank, or if it's just the coaching group.
It is a terrible idea.

[bigcarl]

Very puzzling indeed. Crouch, Clark and Jones all best 22. Can only assume they're not considered match fit. Or we are tanking

[Jaz]

I'm pretty sure its the shotgun approach, throw all the selections at the wall and see what sticks. Doesn't appear to be any logic to it. Tried smaller, taller, focus pace, more inside mids, always seems to be unbalanced and not inline with the opposition. Even the selection of subs is really hard to understand.

[saintbob]

Our selection panel are on a par with our insipid coaching team.

[Devilhead]

No argument from me

[CURLY]

Yep not playing to win it’s clear and selection has cost us games.

Non disclosure document signed ..TANK
But hard to pull off a tank

[The Fireman]

Tanking is character building. Well done to the boys for taking on this tactic.

[Devilhead]

We are looking to cash in before the arrival of the Tassie team and the draft being blown apart

Knowing us though we will blow a top 3 or 4 draft pick on a midget mid who is body light and slow

Happy days!!

I'm tipping Teflon will read this and be nodding his head... feeling really strange that he's agreeing with what you're saying

Only way for Teflon to defend Lyon is to blame Batchelor or Lenny Hayes...or...he might just stay silent for this particular thread

I don't mind the fact that we're playing senior players in the VFL. I do mind that we are mismanaging players development

[wally]

I expect those players to be fresh and play next week while we rest/ manage some others and leave them at home.
That’s my trying to be optimistic approach on these unusual choices.

[Yorkeys]

Wilson into the midfield mix next season.
Forget Bonner. Put JS back where he shines.
Stocker to do more bullocking in the middle.
Pray Hayes comes good. Or whatever the Euro-Euroke people practised.
Settle Henry, Higgins, Dow and Max in a side for a number of weeks.
If a player consistently misses targets put him on notice.
Clark and Crouch riding to bolster mids.
Sad, but Seb has reached use by date.
No selection night is short rubber stamping previous week choices.
Continuity vital but ellusive and its showing.

[Laurie]

Apart from possibly Crouch I really cannot see Jones Clarke Membrey being at St.Kilda next year.We will not make finals we all know that so why not put games into players who will be at the club.
Did I not read on here guys wanting Jones out after his game against Freo.giving away 4 frees in first 10 mins of coming on as a sub.
Now we are wanting him back in the side.
BOOM BOOM
