    You’re going to work through lots of brain cells by trying to make sense of the restrictions in place.

    Back on topic, how bad was Lewis Young’s replacement on the weekend?… used all his experience to do add nothing at all to our team.

      Had a hand in multiple goals though!

        We really struggled holding those mid sized GC forwards with their pace.

        Not sure Lewy would have been better, but Crozier is just about cooked. I understand why he got a spot with two dominating games in the VFL.

          I thought me made several howlers in both games that led to multiple easy goals. That should’ve disqualified him from promotion. He should’ve fixed this in the vfl before being gifted a promotion where he coughed up goals again. Surely that the test not easy stats, as a defender.

            We have to settle on a defensive group soon but I just can't see how it includes both Cordy AND Crozier. Opposition teams will deliberately isolate them both in defensive contests, and when we have the ball.
            Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

              Crozier surely at worst comes out for Wood when available.

                I mean you'd think so, but who says Wood comes back.

                  Yeah that's a very good point. Visits a tier 1 site on 14 July and plays on 17 July.
                  But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

                    One for us (neat pass to Naughts), quite a few for them!

                    Who would've thought players like Cordy & Crozier who aren't moving well would struggle against a mobile forward-line?? The overall defensive positioning was pretty much horrible for the entire game with our defenders caught out of position against GC so many times... pretty much like we have in the past against this team. Do our players and coaches not reference previous performances?

                      Based on players available, what is the solution.

                        In/ Libba, Lewy, Scott
                        Out/ Dunks, Crozier, Roarke

                        It will be a massive challenge for Marra if we end up playing Dees with their intercept markers.

                            Look I feel I am more okay with the measures than most (bad vs worse options) but this made me lol.

                              There is no way more players won't miss due to all these exposure sites being re-classified retrospectively. Fingers crossed Bont is an UberEats guy.

                                Since he has tested negative he shouldn't be infectious, even though there is a 14 day period in which he could turn positive.

                                That is my understanding.
