Nothing anybody says will convince me that it makes more sense playing Newnes on the wing in priority to Dow

Not if he’s not getting to the right space or not running hard enough, or maybe not supplying a way out of defence, let alone setting up attacks.

Fisher is the other one imo that is very lucky again to hold his spot. His best is good no doubt but should you hold your place week after week when you on average play a decent game if your lucky 1 in every 3 weeks.
I was a fan but I’ve given him more time then most to show what he can bring and yet we get the same output year after year. He has been in the system long enough to play consistent footy.

Same re Fisher ... not up to it and well short of what I expected.

Dow has struggled on the wing in the past.

If Jack Carroll isn't the medical sub this week and either of Cottrell or Setterfield is, I will spew up (no pun intended).

Dow is not very good on the wing - half forward would be more his thing.

Don't see either Cottrell or Setterfield improving or staying on the list..
