        I would have loved to have seen TDL get a run back in his home town. My preference would have been Everitt out too with TDL in.

        As it is, you can bank on Everitt being the sub.

          Well I'd have preferred TDL to be in the side, but we're on top, so I assume the coaching staff know what they're doing!!

            Disappointing again not to see TDL in. I fear he'll go to another club at the end of this year. What a waste that would be

              You pick your best 22 to win a game which we have been doing. If you do that, and you are top of the ladder, you are doing it very well. If that means you lose peripheral players, sad, but so be it. You hope they stay and fight to get in a good side with premiership potential. If they leave meh

                Are we top heavy? Ted, Grundy, Reid, LRT, Mummy, Moose. Throw in the mobile talls AJ, Goodes and Everitt.... That's a few players above 190 cm on a big ground. Possibly one Too many considering the Eagles have lost Lynch and Hille ( can play tall, not sure how tall he is). We'll see I guess.

                  Except that TDL is in our best 22 and is better than peripheral player.

                    Seems the coach and selection committe disagree. The same ones that have picked a side that sees us sit on top of the ladder.

                    I'm backing them

                      Maybe they think he's required now but is what we have seen so far this year the best LRT can deliver? He really hasn't done much to suggest he'll be in our best 22 next year so we could easily lose both. Net gain? Zero.

                        This is not serious surely?

                        When you are a genuine shot at a premiership (which Hopefully we can all agree we are?) you play the best 22 you have to win EVERY game.

                        Bugger what happens next year

                        Net win a premiership

                          I would also point out I really rate TDL. He has picked up his defensive work and spread. He is simply not in our BEST 22 ATM

                            Yes it is serious. TDL provides a far better forward option than LRT or Everitt. I'm not saying that LRT shouldn't be in the team, he just shouldn't be in the forward line.

                                The toughest part of the season is coming up. We are equal fourth. I am confident of making the top four. I think next year is our best chance of taking the top spot. I am not dogmatic about our best 22. TDL has a lot of potential. I think LRT has past his best. Its just my opinion. The coaches and your good self won't be convinced otherwise.
