Nick Smith

He disposes of the ball well in the magoos, I think he was just a bit overawed by the situation. He's probably equal first on the chopping block with Brennan, but I'd like to see him given another game just to see if he can settle a little. Geelong on Saturday was a tough first up order for a debutant.

I reckon getting just one game and then being dropped is tough on someone. But he and Laidlaw could form their own little club - same opponent and venue too.

Assuming Kennelly's OK for next weekend, you'd think Brennan is already all but out. Then it's going to depend on whether they want to bring another tall player in to add some structure to our forward line, whether that's Everitt, Grundy or White. If they do, you'd expect Smith to be playing at Manuka next Sunday, unless they decide Bird could do with a bit of a rest.

Not bad but needs more time in reserves to prepare for senior footy. Better options available at this time. Please come back soon Fossie.

I agree it is. I rarely think someone should be dropped after 1 poor outing, particuarly early in the season.

A few people have said there were better options but no-one thus far has been willing to name them.
