How has Polson been travelling in the VFL? He's the unluckiest of the lot, in for the Port game then straight back out.


Unlike SPS who has done bugger all since the Coll game and remains in the side

His performances post the Collingwood game haven't been as good HOWEVER who from Northern has played well enough to warrant replacing him? I mean somebody playing in the same position?

He has shown enough in my opinion to keep his spot. His last quarter was pretty good. Aside from the goal of course, he made a few great hand passes to put people into space. Keeping the faith may pay dividends over the next few weeks.

FWIW...I like it bg72

Your point is valid however I get frustrated with the ressies form warranting selection argument. It's the same as poor form in the seniors warranting demotion.
he will be an x factor, no doubt...just think that BB could've fiddled the team around a bit and given him 2-3 weeks getting a run with the NBs while bringing someone else in (maybe not exactly like for like)
Boekhorst, Smedts and Graham get dropped with regularity and generally, we agree (except Smedts...I think we should persist with him!!!)
Hopefully Polson and Smedts gets a 3-4 game stint before the end of the year

I'm already on my next multi modal masterpiece. I am going to attempt a rhapsody in blueness.

An unlucky break for Cripps. I wish him well. Looks like a lucky break though (no pun meant) for Graham now.
Can he break through and save his career? With so few options to play Cripps's first to the ball role it's his chance. It's now or never. 3-4 more games (potentially) remaining for the Blues for him.

Wouldn't mind Boekhorst or Pickett being given another chance if we want a bit more run and pace.

No one else really putting their hand up in the 2s

Silvagni is a test as is Williamson.
Andy Mac didn't give any hints as to their probability

I'm with 99prelim. I'd like to see Smedts get another run at it rather the Graham this week. He seems lighter on his feet than Graham and slightly quicker decision maker.

What does 9 clangers mean for Kerrige?
Next nearest was Simo with 6 and Gibbs with 4.
Probably deserves to hold his spot based on lack of other options and role to protect some of the kids like Cunners and Fish but c'mon Kegga! Limit the mistakes!! Take the first option!

Just heard Kerrige ran 17km for the game. Team high.
