Suspect you're right tho

Do you think I'll have as much trouble finding a flight as for the Prelim ?? ?

Baker to debut...

Is it also the kick out changes allowing clearance by defending team more easily? The extra 10-15 meters on the kickouts and the forward teams defending further towards the wing This hurts us in particular with the low quality of our inside 50s and missing some basic shots on goal...

5 out if our starting back 6, ffs

Ridiculous and utterly predictable, so much so I called it in other thread Now watch the 4-5 weeks blow out to .... wtf knows?? ?

Same as most rule changes over past (10?) or more years Coaches and players adapt and find new tactics, unsurprisingly there are unintended/unforeseen consequences, inevitably compounded by poor interpretation by umpireS of increasingly confusing rules I've said it before, if only they left the game alone and improved the umpiring of the original game the fans (including viewers/broadcasters) would be much happier and us folks on Demonland would get approximately 43% of our posting time back to use more effectively

I'm not much of a fan of Omac, but I have to agree that he's done his job the last few weeks. There is no way he'll be dropped until May and Lever are in and playing good footy and well supported by Jetta/Hibberd/Frost/Salem (or other structure). Even then he could justify his position if his form is good freeing up other options. I'd think good form is more likely if the best back 6 group is on the park with a stable structure performing well - so I'm prepared for him to surprise on the upside Picking single plays of the game where Omac didn't singlehandedly stop an attack OR using gross (and largely incorrect) generalisations to characterise his performance is unfair

This is an excellent post!

Looks far worse, but probably less impact Hard to see him being suspended

What is he? An Orchid?

Had a good game, even if some on here still want to bag him. He's looking more and more confident and competitive contesting and then winning the ground balls. Does need to improve the 30m set shot tho

Came back on... so you'd think he's OK Ohhh wait I forgot, 4-6 extending to 10 weeks

Probably room for him without dropping Omac

Tracc was good, Brayshaw poor but got heaps of it and won't be dropped Don't think we can replace Omac at this stage, so he'll stay in

Only if you're looking at the last minute in isolation We would've dropped players back earlier if we could have

Yes, unfortunately we have to imagine

Weren't many better

Was very ordinary

Gawn injured ?

Hibberd, Lewis injured... Keilty, Garlett omitted ANB, Preuss, ..... (I don't even know the 3rd or 4th)

6. Salem 5. Jones 4. Harmes 3. Petracca 2. Frost 1. Lockhart

Solid game from chunk, was in best couple

Brayshaw was worst on, Garlett not far behind. Fumble central. Decca and Stretch also failed to impact

What the complete f... is going on with the fumbles?
