I am and that is what I am writing. Next suggestion?

So you're writing off a few second year players?
Big footy lunacy right there

Can we say goodbye to Christian Howard already? I just think he's the wrong style of player for our team, irrespective of potential.
We need blokes that have a blue collar work ethic.

Agree - its like some others have commented, if he was playing for Footscray VFL we would not even look twice and rookie-ing or listing him but because he is on the main list, he gets a chance?

Surely he will be gone at years end - we aren't good enough to carry passengers.

Rocket was arguably the best game day coach in the AFL. The club moved him on for a bloke who was renowned as arguably the best development coach in the afl. (If the club had brought in a coach who was renowned for tactical nous and getting the very best out of senior players, I'd have questioned their thinking!!)

This sums it up for me.
I'm not convinced B-mac is a premiership coach, but he may just be the best fit for our current situation.

I'm comfortable with the selection - I wouldn't have given him another year on the list, but once he strung together a couple of good games we needed to know for sure his ceiling. We've found it.
B-mac in the MMM interview made it sound like he wont be back in the side.
