One thing about Aarts is that he should at least have a crack hes a goer. How well he goes we will find out but he will ask some questions and will have a dip, unlike plenty of others so far.

Good luck to the lad on his debut.

Hope he has a ripper.

welp.
Also surprised about Bolton, but well, no-one (bar Nankervis last week) has really earned their keep. No problems with the club putting the players on notice.

Bolton could very well be top 5 in the BnF. Clearly been the best small forward this year. Bizarre decision.

Furious that Shai is dropped. Was ok last week.

And Rioli hasn't played as well as Shai did last week for 12 weeks

Aarts head of Shai, spare me. Selection panel should be dropped.

If Shai is out maybe he went away from the team rules again in ways that were not not obvious to the fans.

Maybe he was late to training or something.

Something not right down at the club.
Lots of grumbling and odd decisions.

Rioli would have been guaranteed selection for 6 weeks if he 10 touches/2goals like Bolton did.

Bolton had 4 tackles to go with it.

Bizarre decision.

Bizarre decision.

I were at the Scratch Match and Rioli was not amongst the bests, Dimma's Golden child.

Last year when he was dropped, Taztiger4 and i watched his VFL game at Arden Street and he was pretty quiet, yet Rioli was selected the next week with the coaches saying he had done everything he needed to do to get recalled, I was surprised at the time Ditto this time.

Having said that hope he plays well and applies plenty of pressure to Melbourne's defenders, someone needs to.

Strange decision, I thought Bolton had been the best of our small forwards this year,

Starting to feel like 17 , 18 and 19 was only a dream :)

Only possible explanation. 2 goals last week. Only had 10 touches and would like to see him get more ball but far from our worst.

Other than that I like Chol, Balta and Aarts in.
