Re: Always Right Match Committee Round 11 v Suns
Surely this week Bevo cannot justify giving JOD another run - he needs VFL game time.

While I tend to agree if he feels he is best suited to a specific match-up then that's okay but if it's to be the 4th tall in what will be greasy conditions then it's a huge mistake. We've rolled the dice twice and now it's time to make the change.

Re: Always Right Match Committee Round 11 v Suns
On JOD who was he matched up on and how did they go?
He may have had instruction to keep his opponent quite and they don't care if he gets a touch.
If his man was getting enough then he had his couple of games and its time to give someone else a go.

Why? Everyone gets there knickers in a knot re the 22nd player.
They just need to play a role.
I'd be pumping games into him non stop.
Love Buku however honestly already like SOS more.

True. I remember one week someone being flabbergasted McNeil was dropped ahead of other options. Seemed to be mainly Dureya he wanted out which is weird given where they both play.

McNeil played one game and has been sub for 3.
Reckon it's a fair argument.
I'm arguing keep. Cmon hujsh don't do a straw man on me.

GC are a danger team hope 5 in a row doesnt give us a big head.
Cleary for JJ, JOD needs to go back to the VFL for a bit, Khamis [versatile] in for him or maybe hannan

I think you make a good case for McNeil getting a break from being the sub as too much sub time doesn't help a player develop (I imagine).
Did I do a straw man? I seem to remember when pressed about who McNeil replaces it being Dureya or maybe Jones (Jones certainly was the correct inclusion in hindsight) but I'm happy to be corrected as I may not remember fully.
Anyway just meant to be a quick joke. I don't mind McNeil but wouldn't drop any forwards or mids in the 22 currently for him.

Damn are you now gaslighting GG?
Well known fact that Duryea did something to GG and any opportunity GG has he will drop, delist and sack Duryea.
More of an In Bruges guy?

He took over JTs roaming Jackson gig.
I praised him this week
God I hate the term gaslighting. Love the film though, I wanted to rescue Ingrid Bergman 30 years ago, 29 years before the term become nouveau cliche.

Re: Always Right Match Committee Round 11 v Suns
JOD while we are winning needs to stay in. The guy is great build and athletic and you can see from his games in the 2's he can play. Why not fast track him in the 1sts. He is also played a role down back when JJ went off. I'm happy to call it that he will be a player and a few at the club think so as well.

I mean, it could happen, but I reckon we leave the guy who's nabbed 20/20 coaches votes over the last couple of weeks where he is and go with something a bit more conventional.
Nobody's looking for a puppeteer in today's wintry economic climate.
