    Means we're tall, but also much better.
    Schache had a bad game, as bad as Weightman and he isn’t fully fit.

    But Schache spent a lot of time in the ruck. He is not a ruckman so his time on ground was totally stuffed up. He was competing against an established ruckman for significant periods of time.

    Why did Sweet disappear so often? He went to the bench early in quarters when he was playing ok. Does he ask to leave the game? He played 80% against Collingwood but only 70% last night. Why such a big change? He should have been left on the ground while the opposition ruckman was playing. Then our second ruck gets their second ruck.

    Do we have a look at turning Cody in to get his elbow fixed?

    He's had a really feeble couple of weeks and last night was as bad as our forward pressure has been all year.

    Cody spent a fair bit of the time on the wing last night... I really need to question why that's the case when our forward line was largely dysfunctional.

    He hasn't been right since the elbow injury so agree he probably shouldn't be playing.

    He went off the ground and in the rooms early in the match and Garcia was warming up. Then Cody appears does his run throughs on the boundary and continued to play. Not sure what his problem was.

    He copped a big high hit very early in a contest on the wing. Think he was being checked for concussion.

    I’m very surprised you are selecting both English and Sweet.

    I think Weightman needs a spell. Otherwise McComb but he actually played ok later in game.
    Hunter is taking Williams' wing spot.

    Williams has done well there. He didn’t play well in the backline, as he hadn’t earlier this year before the switch. He looked natural, and gave us something different on that wing. It feels unfair that Hunter, after a long layoff, can just claim that spot as his right. I’m not sure what the answer is, with our half back line decimated, I can see why Bailey went back, just don’t feel he should be penalised for the one poor game.

    I don’t want to beat up on McComb, lovely story, but the lack of skill is really painful. Commentary at one point said he was positioning and taking the Libba inside mid spot. If so @#@#!! I’m really confused as to what he provides.

    We so badly need English and Richards back if we are to make any sort of run.

    Would be a first for Bevo to play two ruck men
