    I agree.

    But hopefully Ablett will be right. I'd have him in over Smith

    Is Schmit fit? (Try saying that fast 10 times)

      I thought Bolton had a go today, but Mathews, please, get rid of him.

          Matthews was shocking.
          A bigger worry is Spider, he was pitiful. He was slow , couldnt bend and just plain terrible and became a liability.

            Now we have Moore stepping up (hopefully Schmidt to come back soon) I see little benefit in keeping J Bolton in the side. We need to find some guys who can run and carry and kick the ball well.

                id rather see anyone else in whos younger and can develop. even if they make the same mistakes, but there no improvement left in bolton.

                  Bolton is still a 50/50 one for me, I am leaning towards saying he is past it but not sure. But on what we saw today, Matthews must never play for us again. He was dreadful today.
                  Another one that has me increasingly worried week in week out is Leo Barry. Pretty well beaten again today, hes not what he use to be.
                  Other then that, Bird could use a week in the reserves (He may get it possibly do they play next week?) and LRT and Spida were both shocking today as well but, with Barry LRT and Spida its difficult to see who we could bring into the team to replace them.

                    If Schmidt is named in the best for the ressies when the results come through, then he should definitely play next week. Deserves a chance to consolidate on his good season in 07.

                          Was listening to Colless on SEN this morning and he said we are in a rebuilding phase. If we lose our next game then I think we'd be seriously at the point where they'd take a longer term view of the list. Then again, hope springs eternal.

                          I'd like to see B1 and Mathews pensioned off, I'd like to see Leo given more bench time and reappearance of Schmidt and White in particular. More game time in general for the cygnets.
                          He had observed that people who did lie were, on the whole, more resourceful and ambitious and successful than people who did not lie.

                            We also have Fosdike who could be ready to return soon, Smith, Brennan and maybe Veszpremi to debut, if his form in the 2's is still OK.

                              Looking at the names in the Reserves (no results up yet) who is there other
                              than the likes of Fosie White Smith and Davis. Another who is struggling to get into the game is Ed but what he does is good but not enough of it. Mattner is like Leo B only one way to turn and goes round in circles, He looked ok early in season but now I am not so sure, hurry up nick M, Agree that Benny M should have papers stamped "not again" and I am also not sure in Jude B. my wife says out today if Nic D can go so should he. Their thinking is too slow it is painfully obvious you can see the brains ticking over when a number of them get the ball. Mattner Richo Bevo beeny Leo to name a few.
                              Goodes need a shot gun up his " " Roosey sshould play him in set possie. The forward line is weak, why is Ryno and Goodsi all over the place put themn up
                              forward and teach them to kick goals. We would have won today if we had not missed so many easy ones. Micky O also misses some easy ones. Roosey may also have to drop himself what with the speculation of will he or wont he giv eup next year.
