OK. Not a great start on a number of fronts.First game back after the bye is against the Dees. What do we want to see from the selection committee,coach,and current personnel?

Injuries have not helped to date. Umpiring suspect to say the least.Coach is clearly under the pump.Do we put the ambition of winning games before promoting kids on hold?Do we ask that the coaching panel put it to our elite/premiership players are they still hungry or do they want to chase the money on offer elsewhere?And out of interest are clubs allowed to chase players from local or country leagues and promote straight away to the senior level without going through the draft system?

We don’t have many left in the VFL to promote barring anyone coming back from injury
Its only Cumbo Coulthard Banks Naismith Green and Smith that can come in

Stay as low as possible so they don't stuff the draft pick.
We need a Reid or Bompmytelly or Butters.
Our midfield would get beaten by our 2010 midfield

We are struggling right now due to our mounting injury list and playing the cubs in the big league partly through necessity but it is the only way we will know if they have the talent, desire, skill and temperament to succeed. Only time will tell

Happy we are not playing this week.
As Oozey said the bye has come at a good time.

Hope they can put up a performance of sorts v The Chardonnay Set.
Would want a reasonable showing as City Hall will start thinking of taking this marquee match off us.
You can just imagine them praying for us to get pumped.

Will look forward to seeing guys get promoted like Steely and maybe Kaleb.
Not that we have a huge list to pick from.
Just 28.

Also continued improvement from McAuliffe, Browny, MoJu, Dow, Nigel, Revenge of The SIth and off course Myki.
That's about all we can hang our hat on at this point.

Lift Tiges!
