Amartey party has been gatecrashed
In Taylor Reid McDonald McLean
Out Amartey (omitted)
I think Amartey must be carrying a niggle. He's been playing well enough to at least be on an extended bench rather than dropped outright. I wonder if McDonald will make the final cut? If so, will it be for Bell, Stephens or Rowbotton? Possibly even Wicks?
So, I’m assuming Reid is definitely in as the natural replacement for Amartey.
But would be surprised if we go another tall in, as Reid’s time will need to be managed a bit and my instinct is they also want another look at Logan pre-finals.
'Delicious' is a fun word to say
With all due respect, that's a terrible take.
If we want to be a serious threat at going deep in September this year, Reid is in the team as our forward / back up ruck. He was in brilliant form to start the season - competing very well in the air and dominating boundary throw ins in the forward half.
Amartey has been ok - he's shown he's a great prospect. But Reid is easily the better option if fit.
He's been back in reserves for a few weeks, and the next month of footy will be huge in building him up for finals.
