I get that Weiters, Cerra and Pitto returning give us something, but if Pitto comes in at the expense of say TDK or SoJ we lose something as well.
When Cerra returns, who goes out, probably someone like LoB or Cottrell, without doubt the equation favours Cerra but still it's not a free lunch.
They can't all play, and they won't all play!
Why would Pitto come back at the expense of Jack or Tom? All three were playing when we were flying at the start of the season.
Same with Cerra; he doesn’t necessarily replace O’Brien or Cottrell. It’s more likely that he would come in for Motlop and join Walsh and Fisher in the high half forward-midfield rotations. We may lose some defensive pressure inside forward 50 but that would be more than compensated by more midfield possessions and good delivery inside 50.
It doesn’t really matter who goes out provided we select the 22 players best able to execute our game style.
