Yeah injured, he was sitting in the stands with the rest of the boys. Everyone keen to see him come back...

There have been a few of those tbf. Look at Beach’s performance at the weekend for example

Simple case of Monty not liking him

Was it, I thought he went to WSW because his brother went there from OS.

His brother was trialling with Sydney around that time, Aydan was still hoping for a scholar deal here. Tristan still hasn’t signed anywhere as far as I know.

I don't think the plan is to continue with 2 up top but is a response to not having DiPizio and Sains.
I think when Migsy is back he will play 10 and we'll drop a striker.

Feijao may yet do what Nkololo, Doka, Torres and Tulio did before him - have a dodgy start then hit his straps. I'm happy to wait before judgement. He did some good things last night, but was quite inconsistent.

Kuz showed glimpses of what he can do and I'd be tempted to move Roux to CB, Kuz to LB, Tapp to midfield and Steele to bench. Nothing against Steeley but think that's the best bang for our buck. Kuz won't be up for the full 90mins for a bit, so Steele comes back in most games.

I'm excited to see what the like of our youth can provide this season - particularly Eames, Brandtman, Kuzevski, Duarte and Migsy.

Anything that plays Kuz is ok in my book

I dont think you want an unsettling effect where you end up Shifting Roux from CB to RB, Tapp CM to CB unless its unavoidable like a red card situation.

I get how you feel about Steeley, I'm much the same. But at the same time, I think he needs a run of games to show his worth, which he hasn't had with us....ever? I get that results come first but I would give him at least another 5-6 games barring a disastrous performance

He definitely needs to put some consistency on the board in just playing games but he has to earn it to.

Made some key diving tackles last night.

Problem was Alfie Tapp wasn’t working and we are loosing time to fix that or drop Alfie. I think Tapp Steele is better than Alf Steele but Alf Steele is better than Alf Tapp

 

[Ironbark]

I do like Steele and can even see him as Captain one day

 

[Tevor]

After the game I seen Jacko and Steely having a good chat and it looked like Jacko was consoling him.
