Re: McKernan, Wood and Long omitted
Assume Webster for Long, Marshall for McKernan, Bytel for Gresham, Kent for Wood. ???

Re: McKernan, Wood and Long omitted for WCE Game
I am really shaking my head, who in God's name is the back up ruckman for Marshall!
Marshall , first game of the year and no 2nd ruck. I can easily predict we lose and Nic Nat best on ground.

Re: McKernan, Wood and Long omitted for WCE Game
I think this shows “thanks Luke Dunstan” for your efforts
That he can’t get a game requires an explanation from the club
As I have said elsewhere, his last game for the club he got Brownlow votes

needed to work on some things, etc, so I thought he might get in this week at the expense of Zac maybe, who I thought had injured a leg or foot last week?

Rats did not recognise Butler after the hair cut and so could not tell him he was to be dropped.

Re: McKernan, Wood and Long omitted for WCE Game
Were all the players that were dropped worse than Hill against the Bombers . 
The Saints are under review, will it make any difference to the underachievers ?

Long is not dropped. He wasn't in selected side last week.

Re: McKernan, Wood and Long omitted for WCE Game
Jack Higgins shown as Centre Half Forward again
Against Jeremy McGovern, the sainter should win that marking contest easily.
Jack Sinclair shown as Centre Half Back against Jack Darling, the sainter should win that marking contest easily too.
I am surprised they haven't shown Jack Lonie as first ruck against Nick Naitanui.
That would really put the fear of god up Naitanui.
Jake Carlisle will destroy Liam Ryan for ground ball gets.

Re: McKernan, Wood and Long omitted for WCE Game
CHF and CHB do not exist in AFL footy any more
There are two Key Forwards and two Key Defenders
They position themselves dependent on whereabouts the ball is positioned (they do not have a starting on a part of the oval).
At centre bounce both Key forward start relatively deep inside fifty.
Where they are positioned on Thursday is nowhere near where they line up On game day

gutless. after such a performance just two players dropped - both newly drafted as back ups and naught more.

Re: McKernan, Wood and Long omitted for WCE Game
The coach is sending a very clear message. Sorry Luke, you were a 1st round draft pick, you were thrown into the midfield as a teenager and you gave the club 100%. But we now value soft receivers, we suggest you look for a role back in Adelaide next year.terry smith rules wrote: ↑Fri 09 Apr 2021 8:05pm I think this shows “thanks Luke Dunstan” for your efforts

Re: McKernan, Wood and Long omitted for WCE Game
Don't want to be disrespectful to the two guys, but we cannot be a considered a genuinely competitive unit if we need McKernan and Wood in the team
Long is obviously testing the patience of the coaching staff. Hopefully Webster can consolidate his position now.
Bytel needs to play in the stoppages. Put some faith in him and consider him an ongoing starter. Now is the time to get the games into him. The only way he'll develop is if he plays in the seniors week in, week out.
