Kouta said on radio over the weekend that he was really struggling with trying to pick up the pace of the game when he is only on the ground for 10 mins a quarter. If a guy with the experience of Kouta struggles with it, how do you reckon a freshman is going to go? You see guys that come from the Ants look all out at sea, maybe it's because they don't get enough time to feel the temp of the water :?

Our mids are looking slow because our ruckmen don't give them the ball and so they end up chasing the opposition. We need a ruckman that is actually going to win more than 50% of the tapouts. So it's time to give Aisake a go... Blackwell is a ball magnet when he is actually on the ground. :?

I'm hanging out for Aisake to get a run.

But to see him as a silver bullet to our ruck problems is unrealistic Malleefowl.

Unfortunately, when Pagan raised the possibility of playing him after some good performances, Aisake didn't play well last week. And this week he hardly played in the ruck. Unless Mitchell is trying to frustrate the Match Committee, that has to be a pretty good sign that Aisake isn't in contention this week.

If he were to be promoted this week, it wouldn't be in the hope of him winning a good share of the tap outs. If he is selected, it will be a sign we'll concede the ruck to Sandilands, and use Aisake as an extra midfielder around the ground to compensate.

Anyone would have been better than Ackland on friday night....he was insipid.

Aisake would at least have a crack!

@#$%&!!

People kept coming up to me on saturday and said "How about those Blues"...I am getting a little tired of being the brunt of the AFL's jokes!


@#$%&!!

MItchell is NOT the answer! We need a long term plan and Mitchell would only serve up the same sort of crap because he is unimaginative and has little defensive idea.

What leads you to that opinion?
