    This might explain why Aliir keeps getting dropped. Maybe it's not his lack of accountability on the field. I wonder what Newman has done wrong to keep getting sent back to the twos? He's clearly too good to not be playing seniors.

    We have zero evidence Aliir has ever put a foot wrong before.

    And this is pure speculation given the club said he was dropped to work in the defensive side of his game. He was in and out of the side 3 or 4 times last year before cementing his place.

    It would be good to know more before condemning Aliir. I don't imagine players are in the habit of just not turning up for training, so no doubt there was some kind of reason. Sure, it sounds like it wasn't a good enough excuse for the club in the context of this week's game but that doesn't suddenly turn him into an undisciplined player.

    For those holding out for something else, forget it. He was dropped for not turning up to training. Who does that in this era of professionalism, especially when trying to hold down a permanent spot in the senior side?

    McVeigh warmed up with the defenders

    Towers and Jones with the midfielders.

    Cunningham and Florent forward

    I like that balance.

    Maybe that says a bit about why he was playing reserves.

    Yes it is pure speculation but it makes sense. If you think the club doubted his ability or skill I will ask you this question: If he was fit would he have played on Grand Final day?
