If your name in any way holds true (Neeldisournoah) he should be used to heavy rains.

Thought Magner performed well in the conditions, will hold judgement till I see him play in dry conditions against quality opposition. So saying loved his bump on Brown, shows he won't take a backwards step regardless of who gets in his way. Something sorely missed in recent years.

).... the following would be the ones I would go with on the basis of team balance and performance. Joel Mc (errors and balance) Fitzpatrick (balance) Bennell (poor game) Gysberts (poor game) T-Mac (balance) Neeld appears to be using these games as practice matches the result therefore being irrelevant. Therefore I would play all the above players for the reasons you give to see if they can improve I would leave out Green, Davey & Jamar & any other player who does not come up after a humid, hot game in Brisbane.

Interestingly Neeld was not willing to comment on individual players at his press conference. A new era, give the press nothing they will only use it against you. Plaudits and criticism of players best kept behind closed doors.

First post I may not have the same insight as others on this forum but having watched the training drills at Casey Fields, the first three halves looked suprisingly similar to the defensive match drills being carried out . What was missing were the offensive lead and mark drills being carried out at the other end of the ground. Coincidence or instruction ???
