Why is Ed not in the midfield?
Why isnt Ed tagging the opos best mid?
Why is Charlie getting a run in the midfield?
Why isnt Gibbons getting a run in the midfield?
Why is the coach too slow to make moves on game day?
Why doesnt our club complain to the AFL about umpires?
Why this, why that, the same BS (IMHO) questions every week.
No one asks the real questions which for me are:
When are our blokes gonna start hitting players properly with the same jumper as theirs by hand or foot?
When are our blokes gonna start making better decisions when transitioning the ball from defence to attack?
When are our blokes gonna start kicking goals from 25m out directly in front?
When are put blokes gonna start tackling like their lives depend on it?
When are our blokes gonna start locking the ball the in the fwd 50 like their lives depend on it?
When are our blokes gonna lead out hard to the man carrying the footy (and not trip over each other)?
When are our blokes gonna start giving a fark for 4 quarters every week?
When are our blokes gonna stop drinking their own bath water?
Fix the above and we wont lose a game.

The 99 prelim did us a great disservice. It fooled us into thinking things were ok, and that we didn't need to start looking at development of kids, systems, professional programs etc. It brought us to where we are today. If you believe posts on another thread, certain board members have given Bolton an ultimatum, that they want to see "results" in the next few weeks. After decades of fraudulently keeping up the pretence of a professional sporting organisation, they want a full scale rebuild, with all the chaos and list instability that entails, still with zero development of kids, still with zero seniors and core players around, and they expect a wrap in the next few rounds ?

Joke. Massive, massive joke.

O'Brien got an extended run at afl level with little form or worth.  Maybe we should given lang, polson and garlett the same approach and see if they dont kick on.

That's a good idea I think, we need to find out if these guys can play and have a future. Lang would have to be motivated and know it is now or never. Deluca coming into the VFL side will help give us some depth, and Setterfield just needs to play an extended period in the reserves and be best on the ground for several weeks.

Next season we need another experienced older mid to help ease the load, I think it is unrealistic the GWS super players we keep hearing about, given their situation, I would be having a go at getting Higgins across to help out for a few years.

How/why is Simpson being managed?

He only just came back from 2 weeks out and we’re already missing Thomas from our half back line.

Given how the Northern Blues played last week, I would not play Garlett (his form is very ordinary), I'd be struggling to consider Polson (at least he was trying) and I would give Setters more time in the VFL.
However, I have a poor record of picking our interchange players. :(

Got a sneaking suspicion they might punt on Garlett this week.....hopefully not though!

Given we just lost 3 battle hardened players, something we are very light on for. You'd think we'd bring in some equivalent.

Lang has gotta get a game sooner or later, now is the time.
Kerr should get a game to reward form.
Setterfield provides a bigger body that we need as well.

I'd also give Garlett a crack because he seemed to be mastering the defensive spoil based on what i saw on him on the weekend. He is more defensive minded nowadays and we could use his pace.

Personally i'd drop Casboult for team balance......but i don't think our MC believe in team balance.
