Its not like TDK has kicked a bag, Jack is kicking the ball about as reliably as Harry and that leaves Owies and Charlie to kick us a score as our mids give us nothing either.Harry should be dropped for the miss againstthe saints, but this time talking about mix and matching the selectionand trying to help him get his form back
Ours twos got knocked over by high school kids so I dont see any standout replacements for Harry from that lot...Im happy to play TDK this week and mix and match depending on how we are going and have some options but dropping Harry has a flow on effect that leaves us less potent and its odd we would do that in a game where the oppositions most glaring and only weakness is lack of size down back. We can win this game providing we dont do the old Carlton trick of picking the wrong team and beating ourselves...

For me, no Harry means Charlie always gets the top KPD, that isn't the case at the moment, because they rotate through the positions. It's a bit of fan naivety to think you can remove Harry and have no impact on Charlie.
I can't take it seriously, fans want someone to blame and they come up with the obvious because of it's appearance, but Charlie and SoJ have also missed pudding shots with conventional drop punts from 25m almost directly in front.
It's not dropping him.
Not everyone who goes out of the senior team does so because it's better for the team. A week in the two's is in HIS best interest. Take the pressure off, kick some sodas, score some goals, win a game.
We dropped fisher. We've been a much worse side without him. Fans got their wish about plowman too. That hasn't really been a win either.
