KB is in the media, and needs to talk about something. Judd's response is very poor, no matter how you slice it.

Hilarious joke - had me in stitches.
The line between a gentle jibe and a barbed comment is sometimes very fine, but it's still there, and IMO Judd crossed it.

There is no chance that there is no spot for Weiters, the guy is going to be a gun
Marchbank and Plowman can and will play on different players to what Weitering would. I've got nothing against him, but there are plenty of teams that will try and go small up forward and in all honesty, Jones is playing better than Weitering ever has, and he might be the #1 key back and there might not need a #2. Marchbank and Plowman can play small, but can play tall if need be as well.
It would also limit our running ability having him in the side as it means someone who would run more, perhaps even a pure mid, would have to make way for him.
Lods is closer to the money saying he'd probably be played forward, but unless its in place of casboult, i'd prefer to keep McKay in the side getting games under his belt.

Watched abit of the game, happy with any win whether its JLT or season proper, breeds the right culture. I like the way we appeared to move the ball quicker, still a work in progress though. I still saw a little too much sideways movement and indecisiveness from players at HB or on the wing whilst trying to thrust fwd. Players need to look for the player running past and go bang. You cant stop and prop every time to access the options, its what stifles our game IMO. Decisions need to be made much quicker and can be made easier on the bloke with the footy by those around him getting into the right position and get motoring to provide the option (ie no stationary witches hats pointing into the air). I guess this takes time to master but I would rather pay the penalties for the odd error playing this way than than slow, stop, prop look sideways stuff.

I rated him a 69 on the season with Plowman a 72 and Marchbank a 73.
For a 2nd year player, his season was still good and still better than a lot of our other players, including 3 of the Rising Star nominees (imo)
....and where was Jones? I'm tipping above all of them as well.
Which is my point. The other 3, are all in good form and held down the major defensive posts down back.
You can have your 3 best players rated 99, 98 and 97....but if they are all ruckmen, then you can't fit them all in the side.
Nobody is saying Weitering isn't talented, or couldn't perform at AFL level. Just saying that it is possible, that the blokes we have currently playing a similar role to him, are playing it better than he has/will and we may be better off for team balance (getting more mids into the side) not having him in it.
Bolts wanted to play the kids last year. So many debutants, so many rising stars. Yet even he admitted that he played too many in 1 game (port??) and said he got it wrong. Team balance was all out of whack and we got flogged. The same is possible for key backs.
Hell, Setanta and his little helpers gave teams all sorts of grief because it we were so small and would run off/around/through their 'excess' key defenders when played against us. I think the game is heading a little bit towards the way we played it then, with Richmond being the obvious point of reference.

I haven't seen the game, but that sound like what the guys on the radio were saying. Progress, but still work to be done.
