Always Right Match Committee - Round 12 Vs Adelaide 2020

[ratsmac]

Lewis Young should be playing. He's definitely better than Gardener but that means nothing, but with Cordy and Bruce missing it's a no brainer. Play him forward, if Adelaide's talls are getting on top (of Gardener) swing him back. Puzzling selections to say the least

[kruder]

We clearly aren't scared to go into games with small line-ups

Good to see some faith in Gardner. I think we need to give him an extended run to determine if we can work through his nerves
Roarke Smith yo-yo's back into the side which is a bit baffling to me
Jordon Sweet returns to rightful spot on the emergency list. He is very much the central part of our triage group

Cavarra get his chance to impress

You have to wonder where Lewis Young is in the mix, surely we could have tried him forward and I would have thought Lachie Young instead of R.Smith would have been worth considering
Will Hayes must be a mile off the mark

We bring La Young in and play him out of position, with JJ and Crozier out it's the perfect chance to play him there, along with Richards.

Bevo brings in Smith instead. It's just baffling.

[DOG GOD]

Hmm can I change my tip to Adelaide?
I’m lost for words....again by the MC

[GVGjr]

Disappointed Lewis Young didn’t get a run. I don’t see how Gardner is ahead of him.

He's injured.........apparently.

He's on the bench so just not a preferred option at the moment

[Mantis]

2020 has been a year of constant change and unrest, but at least I have the constant of being absolutely *!*!*!*!ing mystified by our selection process.

Yep... it’s a *!*!*!*!ing shambles.

Bevo is just taking the piss.

[DOG GOD]

If I was Lewis Young I’d be asking for a trade ASAP (if he hasn’t already) before his career is brought to an end by Bevo’s regime.
It’s beyond a joke now.

[Happy Days]

Lewis Young is 18 months younger than Gardner.

[G-Mo77]

Lewis Young is 18 months younger than Gardner.

And twice the player

[comrade]

And twice the player

Yeah, but can he train?

[1eyedog]

Oh it's Roarke again. That's nice.

[Happy Days]

Yeah, but can he train?

How many 16 a side games has he torn to shreds?

[jeemak]

At what stage as a MC would they say, "you know what, this guy's been shit in the scratch matches, I reckon he's due a run in the seniors"?

Anyway, if you saw yesterday's press conference it was clear Gardner was going to be playing and that the coaching team clearly sees attributes in him they think they can develop. Whether I do is irrelevant, I can't impact it so am not going to worry about it.

Happy seeing Cavarra and West in. Hopefully at least one of these guys takes the opportunity and stakes a claim.

[Rocket Science]

The remainder of the season's largely a list management exercise so we're clearly hurling plenty of proverbial at the wall and seeing what sticks at this point.

[G-Mo77]

Yeah, but can he train?

I hear he cuts oranges in perfect quarters. Maybe he doesn't cut them quick enough?

[Grantysghost]

We probably need some communication regarding Lew Young. Maybe the silence is communication enough. There's no conspiracy here.
