Don't think Yarran deserves to play. It was frustrating watching mope around the backline at half pace.
Its not Tutt's fault he is being selected, please match committee don't select him this week.
Yarran - 25 possesions. 8 marks. 7 tackles. 130 supercoach points.
You should stop listening to brain dead commentators just looking for a story. Do something different and dont follow the views of people on here with no idea and the media crakheads and you might see things different.
He might be playing injured because from what I saw, he could barely get a jog up compared to his usual dash. Did you think he played with his previous dash? Did he play with intensity? Was he creative with his kicks or did he just play sideways? Did he look to give and go to create space? Did he remain flat footed after his poor disposal to let others clean up the mess? Did the commentators mention any of this?
I can't remember the last time he took a run and bounce, it's a great weapon so where has it gone?
Everytime l saw him play, he had an opponent on him 5m away or a zone ahead of him. 36 players in the space of 50m is pretty hard to break through from the backline. There is no point Yarran taking a bounce from the back line to kick it to no one, when our forwards are at the centre bounce area with their zone D. Plus you are playing Freo, one of the best defenses going around. Opposition coaches basically would plan every week to shut down yarrans run. He is our only dangerous player on the team. You really want to play Yarran on the HFF if you want to maximize his speed when the zone defense is broken.
Maybe you should listen to commentators, if this is your best work in justifying why someone should get dropped. I don't think you get 25 possessions and 7 tackles if you lost your dash.
Go to the about the two minute mark

And again at about the 5.30 minute mark, the defensive effort against Walters.
Like I said, he may be injured because they were two instances across many in the match were he has no acceleration and is very poor defensively.
I didn't need commentators to tell me that. I saw it myself.
