Dick had 6 disposals & kicked 3 points in the VFL on the weekend.
Surely on that performance he can't win a spot back in the one's?

Rounds and Young have also been less than inspiring, so I would imagine Fasolo would have to be the one to get the nod.

I reckon Luke Rounds and Fasolo to debut. Blair to come in as well. Well that is what I hope will happen. Love to see Buckley come in but I have a feeling he is not 100%.

^^ Just 1 month ago I wouldn't have believed someone could say they want to see Buckley in the team. How times change :D.

I agree with swoop though, definitely those 3 if they're all 100% (only question mark is over Buckley really)

I dunno. Back when I played for Lemnos U/15 D Grade, pretty much every side we came up against considered it a walk in the park...

Don't think stats from one game has much to do with it, Wotfam, and I'm not being a smart arse. I know what you're saying, but will all come down to wants and needs, particular type of player required on the day against the line-up we're facing. Dickie monstered them in this game last year, if my memory serves me correctly. He's going to click again at some point, he's too good not to.

^I think the Dees were monstered by Dick 2 years ago Podpicken. This year they'll be monstered by some Krak.

How about the long range kicking and accuracy from Buckley and Reid down back, and the occasional torp from the Sack. Not bad.

I think he kicked four in the draw against them last year too. Was his first game for the Season from memory then got injured against the Swans the next week.

Buckley, Blair, Fasolo are the obvious ins - in that order.

Buckley's form has been excellent, and up against the players we've named on interchange, he should be automatic - if fit.

Blair had a good start to the year in the ones, and is definitely a better option than any of the others.

Fasolo has the best VFL form of the rest and should be brought in for his debut.

Would like us to hold off on playing Dick till he shows some form in the VFL. Is too often brought in too early.
Well done boys!

I'd agree with you on Dick. I think the next spot will go to Mcarthy. Just on the basis he has had a few games this season and his experience so far will help.

Roughie though, maybe Young will get a game. He's a bigger bodied kid. Wouldn't surprise me to see him as sub. He's played alright in the VFL, been very happy as a supporter.
