You couldn't possibly retain Moore on that display with Cloke available and White in match-winning form.

DTM, White is not my favourite player but he did kill that VFL game off with his brilliant first half. Credit where it's due, he was stunningly good, on the day.

Agree, and more importantly for White he actually clunked a few overhead contested marks which was his major issue.

Appreciate Dave's angst on the possible inclusion of White at the expense of Moore. Moore is the future but he's just not impacting yet, 5 games, 4 as a forward and he's managed 5 goals. Sadly, all those came in 1 game.

Have to reward White, or any player dropped who then plays really well in the VFL. Sends the right message to players that work hard and you will be rewarded.

A win is a win, doesn't matter how you get it , White should get a run and PK put his foot forward

After waiting almost two seasons to see Marsh get his chance, I thought there were some pleasing signs with his ability to win the ball and back his judgement. He had an opponent though, who kicked 4 goals. He'll learn a lot from his first game. I hope he holds his spot.

They not done that with PK and Marsh had to play over a Month of Great Footy in the VFL to get AFL game time

For one game? Yer right. Any tool can have one good game. To force your way back into any decent team after being dropped you should have to string a series of good games together.

^^^ That might be right if the guy you'd be replacing had touched the ball to any useful effect in his previous two games against bottom-standard opponents. That is not the case, here - Moore will be a good player but, at the moment, the "Vacancy" sign is up at CHF.

I might add that White didn't have a "good" game in the VFL - he totally destroyed the opposition in the first half. I'm no fan - but I admit what I saw.
