Re: 2025 Practice Match vs GWS in Canberra Reply #1 – February 28, 2025, 10:14:03 am Shouldn't we be exposing Lemmey to AFL standard opposition more?The only way he is going to be able to step up.PS Hope JSOS's return is smooth and enjoyable for him Quote Selected

Also, the way our rucks are going injury wise. he could be needed for a game or so in that role.Ab Quote Selected

However, it's also important to give McKay and Kemp game time together. I would have gone with Lemmey on the bench and rotated all three as the KPFs. Quote Selected

Just play him!People try to justify our KPP stocks are OK because of blokes like Lemmey. But he can't crack a gig for a nothing game like this. Instead we play Kemp, Sos and Young and cross our fingers they can perform a miracle.Its a big concern. Quote Selected

Not sure the club will want to over experiment when the real stuff starts and he may not get many opportunities unless we get injuries on mass, remembering he couldnt get a game last season when we were struggling to field a team.

Get him experience without hurthing our premiership window chances.But no.Destined to be one of the bottom 10 players on our list, closer to being delisted than being a player. Quote Selected
