Although his performance last week was meh, for a small forward his stats were ok.  3 tackles, 15 disposals.  Giving the ball lived at the other end of the ground for long periods its passable but I'd really like to see banging the door down.

Several of our players had reasonable stats but actually did very little.  Durdin had plenty of opportunities but failed take advantage of them.

Durdin is a more like for like with Fantasia, and maybe Binns is too much of an experiment in a big game.

Fantasia has been doing Cottrell’s role and I think that Binns is more capable of that than Durdin.  It would be a big ask to give him that responsibility in his full game when it’s a blockbuster against one of our fiercest rivals.

I think similarly, Carroll in and someone else Sub, but I'm not sure it's clear if it will be Durdin, could we have a late change?

I suppose we will know at 2pm!

We will know a fair bit at 2pm when the VFL plays, who is in who is out, etc., etc., limits the options.

They will always have a couple of emergencies who won't play today in the event of injuries in the warm up.

If you guys want to see why our afl types in vfl are being criticised look at channel 7 today.

The bombers score first blood.

Nick Bryan in the ruck. Taps down, bombers get the ball forward.  Dom Akuei fumbles a nothing spoil to Davey jnr who dishes off to shiel for a classy finish.

Outright second place on offer.
And the draw opens up in the back half.

I hope so MBB.  I have an awful feeling that Georgie will be the sub
