Jack Reiwoldt scathing of Harry and also suggesting Cody Walker will be considering Richmond and planting a seed of doubt by talking about it on Fox.
In the third qtr, 6 players laid 1 tackle each. 17 players didnt lay a tackle. EOS.
Begs the question... Why?

Word on the street is he might be reconsidering his decision to nominate us.
I didn't watch any of the game as I had to hand out the trophies at my cricket club's presentation night.
However, I have read a fair bit online about the match and it appears there were no trophies to be handed out there.
I can only summise that we are genuinely tanking and my reasoning is as folows.
If we can finish last, we can bid on the Port Adelaide kid, get matched by the Power and get that extra bonus pick at the end of the first round. Then we can take the best key position player with our next attempt. After that, if anyone bids on Walker, we can use the bonus pick as part of the collateral to match the bid.
In other words, we are going to try and get two young guys instead of one.
Furthermore, why has Hewett been dropped to the seconds and not recalled ??
Because he is providing genuine leadership to the young guys down there and they will not be promoted to the seniors as the selectors want to keep the next batch of youngster away from the toxicity the senior players.
Yes, it's quite a fanciful theory but its the only way I can understand the utterly woeful onfield efforts we are seeing right now.
IN: L. Young, Wilson, Hewett, HOK, Ison, MoirOf the 6 in's you've mentioned, only Hewett deserves a call-up. That's not going to happen. If you saw Voss' post match you'd know George is on the nose. Well on his nose primarily
I would rather Harry went to CHB than bring in the donkey (L Young).
Wilson started off pretty well yesterday afternoon but then had a couple of horrible moments and his confidence just dropped off. Like he felt he'd blown his chance? Still I'd be happy to give him a run if Cowan doesn't get up. Maybe he'll get in anyway. At the expense of a seriously underdone/out of form Cottrell
HOK is just no good at the moment. Cannot get considered, so based on our MC he has every chance
You need to watch the magoos game. Moir kicked an absolute ripper on his left from the boundary. More evidence of a player who has "something" but just can't sustain it for longer periods , yet, I hope. Still if Harry goes back he would be my logical replacement.
Finally, Ison. First time I've had a good look at this kid and I'm hoping, HOPING, we may have found one. Didn't get a lot of it but 3 goals from 8 kicks ain't bad. Looks to have some mongrel too. Wouldn't mind having a look at him in the big league
oh, p.s. Cody Walker. Very, very good
