Ross wouldn’t get a game in top 4 sides period. That’s your problem.
That’s garbage. Ross would get a game at every AFL club.

If it’s good enough for the All Australian Team to have players in the forward line ( who normally don’t play there) then I don’t see anything wrong with it

Anyway...Lethlean already told us how they pick the team...

You have to find a spot for our leaders and senior players

You keep them in the team and just slot them somewhere because they have credits in the bank

He does just ask Scollop
But that aside at times it looks like they don’t even know whose going up in the ruck??
King looks lost to me and that’s game plan and structure he does not look like he knows where to run it’s bizarre...

The medical sub shouldn’t even be a thing, so it’s a bonus to have anybody to replace someone.

Good to know that coaches do need some acumen.

In terms of Ross in the forward line, I suspect it's because we have so many inside mids & Seb is the next best to play forward. Cannot trust Dunstan to do it & Steele & Crouch are first choice mids.

That said, I hope Sinclair plays plenty of midfield time in the 2nd half.

He’d go through the midfield at the WB he’d just add to the mix.

Papuley drops the ball in a tackle then gets the free for holding.

No forward structure is hurting us when we get a quick break thru the middle
