I'd have no problem of Dawson coming in for Towers but Melican stays for mine

Melican isn't going anywhere, Dawson deserves a go, so it's cya later Towers
I've been incredibly impressed with the way Melican has gone about his business this year and I reckon with another off-season in the gym he'll be even better.Originally Posted by longmile
Anyone else get the feeling it'll either be the tigers by 1-2 goals or the Swans by a landslide?
Out: Reg.
In: Marsh.
Solves two problems at once.
And as for dropping Towers as he begins to produce the goods, forget it.
He reminds him of the guys, close-set, slow, and never rattled, who were play-makers on the team. (John Updike, seeing Josh Kennedy in a crystal ball)
I dont think Melican has been any better or worse than Marsh - tough call to drop either one. Both good young prospects. With those two in the team it should give Rampe some license to attack along with a running HBF.
Agree that Rohan should get some touch in the seconds before coming back in. With Papley and Hayward up front and Reid the option to send down to stop opposition momentum I don think we need to rush him in.
He ate more cheese, than time allowed
Depends who turns up for both sides. The Ferals have been quite competitive this year, only being beaten badly once, by Adelaide in round 6 by 76 points. Their other three losses have been by a total of 10 points after choking three weeks in a row.
This isn't going to be an easy game and we'll need to bring our best game to beat them.

It may be worth recalling at this time that the selectors originally had Rohan in the Bulldogs team. He withdrew due to illness. So it is clear they viewed his form good enough for seniors. Given that he had a solid performance in the reserves that weekend, it seems logical that he would retain his position.
He may not break into the team this week based on the superior form of other players but given their preference for Rohan ahead of others on the list I doubt it.
Towers and Melican should hold their places in the side, both have been performing well this year. Towers still has his moments but improving all the time. Melican has been solid since his first game
Towers is 27. That means he's at the peak of his playing abilities right now, and next year. Keeping him on the list for his long is so that he pays back our patience right now. Not playing him when he's at his peak means we've wasted all the development on him.
Towers should be a locked in selection during 2017 and 2018.
Towers should be selected if his form warrants it
Towers turns up every week and as easy as that sounds you have to reward the effort he puts in
Rohan has a better game but does not turn up every week........and I wish he would cut the crap everytime he hits the deck where he looks like he has been shot only to join play shortly after at full pace highlighting the BS act he just put on
