    I must be in the minority, but I thought Cordy was pretty good.

      The game has changed, but in our last outing Dusty, Aarts and Castagna combined for 8 goals as we were touched up at ground level.
      Aarts is another that Wood could match up on. Basically the smaller the better for Easton.
      Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

        How much of today's current football is physical wresting between a key forward like Hawkins and a key back. I'd say less this year than last year. I'd bring Buku in for JJ who has been a real disappointment of late. Only 161 meters gained for the match. Only better than Vanders, English, McNeil (sub), Jong (subbed), Keath and Scott.

        Young was ordinary in the reserves game, West and Lippa were standouts and deserve a chance.

        Who to come in for Tim is a difficult decision, i think Bevo will go with Sweet.
        JJ has been playing within himself, but when it's been his time to 'go' he actually has - a knock on him in the past.

        Not sure the metres gained stat is useful here either, given his role has significantly changed.

        JJ isn't in danger of being dropped but I do hope his form can lift.

          I thought he was ok too - though a couple of times he did look slow.

            I thought he was pretty good too. I also thought he was pretty good last year, but he’s also looked full on horrible in the seconds games I’ve seen this year, so a bit of apprehension is understandable.

              Love to see JUH come in but I don't think it's going to happen.

                  I thought Cordy was ok. Not sure what people expect.
                  But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

                    Can we just ease up a bit on Cordy for a second or two though (and this isn't about your post Mofra or your post Kruder) - it was his FIRST GAME in > 6 months...he's probably going to be a bit rusty. I thought he played with effort and energy and whilst I know we don't like to admit it GWS have Himmelberg, Finlayson and Ricardi all running around (not to mention Greene) and whilst none are world beaters all are competent AFL players who have to be defended...we kept them to NINE goals.
                    We agree on this one.

                      Good question. He was good when he came on. I get confused with the ins and out re the sub!
                      Hannan I wouldn't have as a sub in his first game, so maybe McNeil again if we think he needs a rest.
                      JJ a possibility too.

                        I think a few have got the sub mixed up.

                        McNeil is officially not in the 22, so either he is in for another eg Vanda or sub, or not in at all.

                            BAD I think you are the only one who understands if the activated SUB is in the 22 or not!

                            I think I finally have my head around it and for McNeil to play in the 22 next week he has to be named as an in.
                            More of an In Bruges guy?

                                Replaces who?

                                I think he should take Vanders role (if he is a definite out) We need pace as Richmond has plenty to burn.
