Dunstan has the ideal match up today. This is what he can do, He just can't do much else.

I think there’s a few around here who have quite a bit of egg on their face right now.

Also, no way Hill can play next week.
You are kidding right? Dunstan has done a reasonable job, but his kicking is still lazy and not AFL standard. How many opposition players in the AFL are as slow as Cunnington, the only other is Dunstan? So Dunstan has one match up equivalents for 23 games.
Dunstan is well and truly earning his spot.

What’s Hill’s excuse?

I don’t think anyone’s ever suggested that Dunstan is incapable of playing good games...

He’s a senior player and has been for a while. Needs to do it a lot more and against better opposition

Hopefully this is the turning point for him
I very much think a number of posters on here directly stated that Dunstan isn’t AFL standard, which is clearly incorrect.
AFL standard is consistency and playing to or above expectations more often than not

If it was the odd nice 1/2 then we’d be a team of superstars

Im not defending Hill he is an absolute soft c..k, but Dunstan is very restricted.

Yeah he is obviously no Bont, but give him a solid crack and I think there’s a place for him.

Hill now at half back, Ratts is desperate to get his undroppable into the game.

Been saying it all year! Battle can’t kick! How come? He has never been this bad before.
