No pace in the emergencies either so nothing lost really.
I would have preferred Kerr to Casboult, and Garlett to Polson, and just about anyone to Shaw.
Sam Rowe may have played his last game.

Not sure we needed to play Levi given we have McKay. Would've picked another small.

How does polson hold his place.

And please don’t give me ‘oh but he trys or he runs hard BS’

Averaged 5 pos in last 4 weeks at 30% efficiency.

Club has to be tanking or we are stuffed.

He played forward pocket and the ball wasn't in his area much. Are you from the "Get pumped drop the forward pocket school of football".

Mick Malthouse founded that school by the way.

Chris Judd said these days it's the hardest position on the ground.

You are tagged every week, no one kicks it to you and you are constantly sprinting after rebounding defenders who out number you.

Don't agree. Played further up the ground - was hardly ever deep forward.

You can spin it any way you want but I've seen enough of him to say he is that far off AFL standard its not funny. I feel somewhat sorry for him because the club is making him look like a hack as he is clearly not up to it 'yet'

The kid is barely VFL standard.

Only if you have forwards who actually chase! ;)

I agree, he's miles off the pace and why he was retained and Garlett was dropped is a mystery to me.
The reality is that some of our youngsters won't measure up and at this stage he looks like being one of them, but give him a chance by all means because there's nothing really hanging on it.
But if he keeps failing and we keep playing him we'll start to look like amateurs.
