Wow, this working from perth caper is fantastic - getting teams at 4pm saves me 2 hours of stress!!!

I think Bentick has to come in, and will play on Coughlan. Huge ask from the kid but the Tigers have 2 very good, solid, hard in & unders in Coughlan and Tuck and Bentick will be needed.

In: Bentick
Out: I'd like Chambers but they tend to drop from the IC dont they... Houlihan again?

My view is this. If you're going to pick Bentick and play him, let him bloody play the whole game or at least most of it! What Denis does is that he gives you 10 minutes here and 10 there and you spend the rest of the game on the bench and are then dropped the next week so it just makes it a pointless exercise. You'd have been better off playing him for 4 quarters in the VFL again.

So I don't want to see Bentick or any youngster for that matter come in, hardly play and then get dropped again, it's frustrating for me and other supporters so I can't imagine how the player concerned must be! So for me it's either play him for a full game in the seniors, back him in and give him a proper chance, or don't pick him and just play him for 4 quarters in the VFL. Has to be one or the other for mine.

Out: Teague

Teague had a shocker last week, really not having a good season...Walker is the other option, hasn't been great for two weeks in a row now, but I feel that he will be persisted with...Then again, it would be nice for him to get some GAME TIME!!! Bryan is another possible out (although I wouldn't), maybe for Digby???

Digby's back! Talk about having to earn a game.

Hmmm, I don't think I have ever not cared as much about team selections as I do now.


Although I do notice Goddard's been dropped over at the Saints.

No Goddard has an injury.

What is the point of even selecting Prenda on the bench?

The guy needs more time with the Ants to prove he can do the basics!!

As for the non-selection of Norman - it's a joke! Are we going to see Teague on Richardson or Simmonds? No don't tell me our natural defender in Prenda is going to nullify them with his abundance of football knowledge!

I would give Walker a run with the Ants. He looks tired and frustrated. Let him play a full match with less weight on his shoulders for a couple of weeks.
We know he'll still be at the club next year anyway

actually buzz, i think thats a really good call.

hope bentick makes the cut and takes his chance to hold his position

exactly!! I mean look at Kade Simpson, he didn't get enough ground time during his first few games so he didn't get much possessions, but Pagan now gives him more ground time and look how well he plays.

Bentick to play. Just has to play.

So does this mean that naming DeLuca last week and replacing him with Chambers was a stunt or has his injury flared/gotten worse???
Guess we'll see if he plays for the Bullants on Sat. (on ABC)

Just heard on SEN: Bryan, Houla and Walker dropped from team... hmmm, Walker a surprise...

Not really, he's had some bad games lately.

Final chance for Diggers & Prenda to maybe attract some interest from other clubs I'd suggest.
Good luck to AB.

Go AB!!!

Come on Mrs Caz, fire the boy up

Houla dropped

I knew last night that he was dropped. He told me himself. He was upset about it. But its nice to see you so happy about it Brad.
