    The question for many would be how can we drop a player in good form for someone in questionable form. I get that Gards is more capable of playing on key forwards but it can't be an easy decision.
    Bit of a stretch for me to consider O'Brien in good form.
    Gardner was probably best on ground in the VFL on the weekend - and has certainly done his time coming back through the VFL since the last weekend in March.

      Bit harsh there Ozza. I want Gardner in the side but TOB has done more than enough to hold his spot.

                    With players at level of Gardy, Keath and TOB, I believe it's largely the duo that fits in best with Jones. TOB might be the third 'best' individual player but I think he fits best due to his foot skills and 1:1 defending less of a priority in 3rd tall role. I'd prefer not to play Keath and Gardy alongside Jones as all are a worry with the ball in hand. I have Gardner over Keath atm.

                      Jones > Gardner > TOB.
                      But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

                        I'd play those three too. Not about TOB being a better player than Keath. I probably think Keath is a 'better player' but TOB fits being alongside Jones + Gardner better.

                          Bruce could be back in 2 or 3 weeks as well. Could be a (good) headache for the match committee if all 5 KPDs are fit at once.

                            Agree - not sure the MC will though. Keath has been solid I guess; is there really that much difference between the two?

                            I can't see Keath losing his spot any time soon. Which means I can't really see Gardner coming in any time soon.

                            When we had all available the preferred trio, irrespective of match-ups was Bruce, Jones, Keath.

                            Personally I would've thought Gardy was more like for like to replace Bruce, so I really don't know why they'd change their position now.

                              We haven't had all available though. Gardner has taken some time to get back up to speed and now is probably the first time he is ready to return to the senior side. TOB was also injured and obviously Bruce more recently. We still don't know the match committees' preferred 3 and that can be a quickly changeable position in any case.
