Pitto wants to play seniors, and he should, maybe as soon as next week. His strength is important.

Good to see Cincotta play so well in the midfield. He might stay there, as there isn't a lot of midfield talent in the 2's at the moment. 5 tackles and 6 clearances says he did the job.

One of Kemp or Young comes up next week to replace ... guess who? Honestly, Marchbank is so injury prone. After this he has to come back via the VFL; he looked really short of a gallop, even though he did a decent job.

I am disappointed to see O'Keefe do so little, but how was he going to displace Pitto on that performance? Still, we need a lot of work in the 2's.

Some great performances and some silly brain fade disposals. Acres had me worried in the second half. He can either be a freak and quality number one, or I just need to close my eyes when he has the ball. Not bagging him and he wasn’t the only player up and down like a yo-yo. Glad we won, and won well. I would have exploded if it ended up a goal or two result. Our list is far too good for close results against kids.

Yes, for a certain type of player.
Kemp could play on a wider variety of players and do better on some players compared to marchbank.

If your contention is true and he was brought in for a specific player, fair enough....but with no exposed match form to go by, I wouldn't have risked it.

I can't help but think there is something we don't know about with Kemp. He seems to be first one dropped and it can't be just about form.

I think you’re correct about him being the first dropped, however I’ve no idea why…

I think marchy is a better stopper than Kemp whilst Kemp is more akin to mcgovern.

Got quite a few on the team already.
Considering we do have some blokes who would be getting a game of fit, you might have heard of them...
Sam Walsh
Sam Docherty
Jack Martin

Oh and next year we'll have 2 camporeales to add to Billy Wilson, jaxon binns and an injured Matt Carroll. I'm sure I'm forgetting a couple as well.
Kinda my point…
Though waiting for who gets booted…
