Fuller not selected again and Cordy dropped is a bit of a surprise.

You couldn't see us playing all of Cordy, Jones, Campbell & Williams in the same team could you?.. Especially given Minson will play significant minutes.

I thought they might have had another look at him maybe at Campbells expense even for half the game.
I'm still trying to see where Cordy is placed in the pecking order as we seem to commit to him being a long term project player but then don't utlise these pre-season games to test him out.

I'm trying to not be a smart arse in saying this but how much impact would trying to develop a player in such a key role who doesn't pan out have in the long run?

I feel like these hours spent on Cordy could be better spent on Campbell; not to say that the two can't be developed concurrently, but knowing then what we do now, I would have liked all the game gifted to Cordy last season be given to Campbell.

I think we have a fair idea of what Campbell offers us in the short term and really it's just a matter of getting him very fit. Cordy on the other hand seems to be a player that we don't know what he is capable of. Do we just use him during the season as required or test the waters with him during the preseason games and see if he can improve?

We seem to want to commit to Cordy but then just bring him in for a small taste of it.

Whats your prediction for tonights game? I'll go with a 2 goal win by the Dogs with Higgins kicking the first goal and Roughead the best player.

Game should be interesting - Freo may be a bit fired up after being touched up by their West Coast friends last week. Fielding a strong team too.

SEN, 3AW and ABC Grandstand I believe. Not 100% sure about ABC

Re: Game Day NAB Challenge Match 2 - Western Bulldogs V Fremantle Etihad Stadium

Williams and Higgins as the subs. There goes my first goal kicking chance.

Redpath, Tutt and Jones are the emergencies.

Mitch Honeychurch is playing tonight. Looking forward to that

Terrific to see Honeychurch getting a game. I would have liked another game of Redpath, but he'll get his chance in the VFL seniors every week to impress.

Interesting Jones hasn't been selected.

Thanks for that.

Interesting to see how they use Williams tonight.

He's a sub but yes does he play forward or back?
