Were the following ready.....

Post: # 586798Post BigMart »

Robert Harvey - Always a dodgy selection with a calf at 37yo......NO!
Sam Gilbert - Has not played in 8 weeks, looked like 10..........NO!


Should......

David Armitage played instead of Banger.........YES!
Shane Birss played instead of Gilbert..........YES!

Should.......

Charlie Gardner have come in for Ferguson......YES! (like for like)

Should.......

Jarred Allen or Ben McEvoy have come in for Kosi......Maybe (like for like)

Should......

McQualter have been in the original side after 4 BOG in the VFL.......YES!

Should......

Milne or Schnieder have been dropped for McQualter to give us a more defensive fwd crumber, who can go into the midfield.......... or Gwilt should have made way as we had Dempster, Goddard, S.Fisher, Blake already a tall utilities......Maybe!

As usual some real selection FOPARS by Ross......ones that armchair experts could see on Friday.....not in hindsight...


Well at least Greg Hutchinson would have been happy on Thursday....

Didnt see you calling for Harvs to be left out before the game?

You always this good with hindsight?

FACTS are we have a mediacl staff. IF they clear Rob Harvey to play - he plays. Get a grip FFS.

Who would dare say Robert Harvey is not ready before a game? The man can do anything, only a fool would bet against him before any game.

A true king is Robert Harvey.

I have heard that some people knew Kosi would be out on Thursday - so if we get a fine for this crap mind game stuff - will RL be paying it out of his own pocket. Mini and Chuck should have been in the emergencies if they were going to be needed.

You cannot tell me that RL does not know whether his players are going to pass a fitness test before they are actually tested!!!!!!!!!!!!

If he is fit he is an automatic......was he fit?

Just Common sense to rest an injured 37yo for an extra week.....if he was passed fit, the medical staff are struggling.....How often does Harves have a 5 possesion game....was he hampered?

I am pretty sure that a Sydney assistant coach said they knew as early as Monday that Kosi would not play!

How predictable.
You have to defend every decision, no matter how bad they turn out.

Our medical staff would have to be the WORST in the league.

Gilbert certainly should not have played.

Im defending nothing.

Im stating the obvious we are all experts "after" the game arent we?

And now we have so many SS Doctors in here if I ever get sick I'll give you a call cause you must be a doctor yeah? (I mean to have the inside knowledge on how cr@p our medical now are.......)?

That's the funniest I've seen on here. Definitely the biggest FAUX PAS I have seen!

C'mon people.

Be fair.

You're blaming Ross when that lazy SOB Harvey should be taking all the blame.

Fancy blaming a coach when our players clearly aren't up to it!

A doctor won't help you.

This is why our medical staff are so bad.

Penny
Hamill
Kosi
Ball
X
Watts
Baker
Maguire

All of them butchered...

Are you serious?

Hamill decides to charge Steve Johnston and do his knee - so thats the medical teams fault.

Maguire broke his leg and had post operative complications.....thats the Dr fault...

Kosi keeps falling over his own feet....thats Dr Fault...

X has the genetic make up of the elephant man........guess whose fault that is?

come off it...always looking for an excuse.

I've run out of irony pictures. :oops:

Maybe you could explain again - without the excuses - why Ross is a good coach?

No - playing them before they are ready.....that's the medical staffs fault...

Nearly all our seriously injured players have come back too early....a couple have got away with it, most haven't......Kosi, Ball & Goose the biggest victims, and they may never be the same again....X, Raph, Max, Kosi, Harvey, L.Fisher, Watts...the list goes on with our re-injured soft tissues....
