5 day break is too short with his lack of match conditioning.
Hopefully next week

We're being pretty arrogant for a club that is 4-11. What is going on down there?

it’s always hard to change a side that’s won quite easily (except for injuries). Don’t buy the five day excuse, why name acres as an emergency if that was the case.

Apparently Richo was told he could not use Acres anymore, he had to use Hectares or nothing at all.

I didn't mind Craig Devonport as a player, but he is surely too old now to replace anyone?!

Weller has clearly had his best two games in the last two weeks for 2 years. So why would he get dropped now

18 possessions against port
15 (@86% disposal efficiency ,3 rd best for the team) and 7 tackles v blues

I had him just outside our best last week,

I suspect some of you just get a mind set and can't actually see when things change

He was deemed not ready enough. Get over it. The selectors did what they thought was best for the team and a guy that just played Sunday arvo. Its about 2019 and a pre season for Acres anyway.

Think of those pre season hikes and bike rides in the mountain wilderness.

Coach hoping to be stuck out with Mav in a small tent with little cover on a cold night. A crescent moon for dim light.

Nothing but the sound of a distant owl to keep them company.

<warning for homophobic post>

INAPPROPRIATE POST RULE

There will be ZERO tolerance for any sexist, racist, ageist, homophobic, religiously or culturally offensive, or highly sexually explicit terms or commentary in the Fan Forum or Private Messages.

Such behaviour is a breach and a Saintsational warning will be issued, OR if severe, an automatic ban of 1 week will be issued without warning.
Repeat offenders will have that ban effectively double each time (2 weeks, 1 month etc) for each repeat offence under this rule.

Serial offenders may also be banned by Forum Administration at their discretion at any time.

Richo and the whole team could go to Parkey’s house and take a dump in his living room and he’d tell his housemates to get over it. They had to go and did what was best for the team.

<warning for ongoing dispute>

ONGOING DISPUTES RULE

If posters repeatedly revisit past disagreements causing or creating an ongoing dispute between one or more posters, these disputes can result in multiple breaches and multiple simultaneous Saintsational warnings and as a result a 1 week ban without prior notice. We strongly advise that ongoing disputes be voluntarily by the posters involved taken to the ANIMAL ENCLOSURE forum, where the rules allow ongoing disputes and more abusive posts, as a closed rather than open forum.

Acres was very ordinary at Sandy on Sunday.
Needs another run in the magoos.
What's the rush? It's all about next year now!
