Good ins.

White and Bruce will get a go 1) if they continue to perform and 2) in easier conditions against easier opposition at the dome.

If Bruce gets BOG at Sandy will he get a game next week ? .... or is there something deeper happening here ?. Surely he hasn't had his ticket stamped for the remainder of the year ?

Fisher played like a stoned badger in the VFL last week. What a shocker.
It's turning into a lottery each week. It's certainly not based on merit.

Didn't AR say something like "reputations are gone, that wasn't good enough people will get dropped" in his post match press conference last week?
Maybe Pelchen has a hand in selection as well as who we draft/trade?

Perhaps Bruce / Spence are being developed as a forward combo for the future which is considered more important than playing in the ones. Perhaps they got caught running around with smoked oysters stuck up their nostrils? Perhaps we need some light relief and could rewatch the old movie Stork.

Aw yeah they went hard as hell at match committee.

Minchington and Longa out.

Hard calls right there...

Minch is a dud to be delisted.
I reckon your a dud for that comment. He's the only player that could hit a target last week.

Curren doesnt deserve a game on last weeks performance.
28 touches and three tackles, named as one of the best. Not good enough for you?

Really don't understand Gwilt maintaining his spot or how Minch lost his, and Bruce has obviously pissed someone off!!

Bruce was actually decent in the wet conditions too. Would offer more than Stanley I feel.

Dunell is obviously great on the training track. Last week he played a quarter for 1 possession. Earlier in the year he played a half for 8 possessions. In neither game did he impact the contest at all.

I like the guy but I don't think he's got a position at AFL level. Surely this week is his last chance?

Why because Fisher is in and Minch is out. Think it proves we arent tanking.

We are not tanking. We know that we are unlikely to win another game this season, and we're giving everyone a run to see who is up for it and who it not.

Oh really people. You carry on about Bruce.
He is not even an emergency.

Obviously not doing something asked of him.

And to the poster who has started two threads potting Billings then Montagna, now insults Lenny and Fisher by saying their selection means we are tanking :roll:

Paul Hudson
Josh Bruce

Josh was probably our best player on the ground. He had 10 marks and six shots at goal. Unfortunately he only kicked two goals but he had a good day. He was taking on contests with aggression and eyes on the footy. He put pressure on and used the ball well.
Not sure what he Isn't doing but clearly Paul Hudson is sending a different message to supporters...

I don't remember Dunell's kick but it must have been a good one!

I don't get why we are playing gwilt ahead of bruce.
unless bruce has some gross disciplinary issues we don't know about then it seems moronic.
Hes 22. Lets get him to 50 games ffs. His sandy form is good.

What in hell are you on about?

Tell me the reasons why Bruce isn't getting a game. apparently it isn't form, so it would be obvious to any thinking person that he is not doing what is required by the coach.

So what is your question Con? Why is Lenny selected? Fisher? Why Bruce isn't?

Really your disparaging remarks say more about your ignorance and lack of understanding a football club then anything.

Disappointing response.

Honestly are we still trying to pick the 2010 side? Hoping for a time machine?

Ffs. Our club is a joke.

Maybe it's a case of the club wanting to have enough information to make a call on each player?

Minch has done enough
Dunnell on his last chance to prove something
Can Fisher's body hold up?
Is Gwilt worth another season
TDL is done etc

Bruce must certainly be wondering what he has to do to get back in.
