The Swimming Dee

Really don’t know what to make of that performance. Not sure we are a top 8 team and really don’t know what to make of Goodwin’s coaching anymore. Richmond are scary good. So many positives in the first 3 quarters but we are so far away from being a really good team. 2 and 3 is a bad position to be in. ANB has been absolutely awful the last 2 weeks and must go back to the 2s. He handballs to danger all the time. Stretch ain’t up to it. He is in as a runner and every time he gets it he stops and goes backwards or sideways. He has completely lost the ability to take the game on. I’d rather give Spargo or Baker a go because Billy’s impact is a huge negative every time he gets the ball. Fritsch needs to come back in...he is clean Harmes has to go also. Just not a clean player, always fumbling. Weideman did OK. Competed, took some nice grabs and tackled hard. We must stick with him. Lever’s best game for the club. Got Bette as the game went on and started to kick the call very well. He will be a star for us. Good to see Melksham have a good game, I thought he was great. We lose on Sunday and it is year over...it is as simple as that

This is an unacceptable performance. Absolutely no idea how to play wet weather football

Frost is a seriously dumb footballer

6 Gawn 5 Hogan 4 Lewis 3 Salem 2 Wagner 1 Kent

Spot on Diamond. Kent was horrible when in the team last year - refused to bend over to pick up the ball, totally one sided and always goes for the hero kick which never comes off. His kicking is overrated imo. His league performances last year were nothing short of woeful and I am surprised he is still on our list. He needs to string many strong performances together before he should get a look in

You might be right Redleg but I just think Frost is a bit one dimensional and does not ruck. We do already have some good runners down back with Hibberd and Hunt. I think they like Hannan’s Ability to go through the middle also. We will know soon. It is a genuinely tough call. I would not even be surprised if Wagner was picked

Thanks ProDee. For what it is worth I think the bench should be Tyson, Melksham, Brayshaw and Hannan. All of these players provide more flexibility than Maynard, Bugg, Frost or Wagner. Saying that, it is a great problem to have - we finally have real depth.

Does anyone know when the final team is announced?
