    Laidler kept up with White in the Power match, he is not slow. But maybe if enough people say it often enough....

    It's ironic reading posts wanting Reid dropped and saying he will never replace Teddy...

    As a forward, Ted was not as effective as Reid and was put in defence as a last resort, he only got a reprieve due to injury....

    So history would say, give Reid time to find his feet as a defender. He's already an excellent spoiler, has good skills and size.

    His decision making, as a defender, is his weakness at present. Game time, as a defender, should solve this issue...

    I think he's going OK, and don't think he'll be dropped anytime soon.

    I like the way Laidler plays, he has a relatively limited skill set but he takes his opponent on, and takes the game on, when he gets the chance...He's a brave player in that respect.

    Towers performance as sub was predictably ineffective. Hope not to see him and Cunningham on the same team.

    OUT : Towers

    IN : Smith

    No idea about who should be sub.
    Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it's time to pause and reflect... MT

    I find Reid frustrating but I think he needs to be given every chance.

    I'd be going Smith IN and Towers OUT - unlike some I rate Towers but suspect he may be trade bait at year end

    And I'd have Harry as the Sub

    Can't believe some want Reid out especially given that we are playing against Fremantle this week who would be the tallest team in the league - his good far outweighs his bad to us

    I'd give towers a full game.

    I also said that towers needs a full game can't be sub twice in a row. But I think he will get that in the reserves.


    Barry who do you think will make way for smith coming back. That is the real question ?

    More important question is: Will Goodes travel to Perth?

    I'd say no, reckon he needs a couple more games in the NEAFL to build up fitness and confidence, reckon Round 6 v the Dees could be the comeback.

    I don't think so. The inclusions (Mcglynn and Cunningham) played well against GWS. Nick Smith will come back in. There will be one out, but I don't know who the 2nd out will be to accommodate Goodes.

    Good question. Harry probably.
