The backline 2024

[ElwoodBlues1]

Good point about Boyd.  While I appreciate what he offers, I think that I’m guilty of overlooking his better performances.

Surely Young has to be our best option for covering Weiters and, hopefully, he’ll do well enough to keep his spot when Weiters is back.

I would like to see tall Durds given a crack.  I reckon he’s the modern equivalent of Sam Rowe; plenty of heart in mouth stuff but generally very reliable.

Have to admit about not being a Boyd fan but I warmed to him after the job he did on Bailey who has stitched us up a few times.
He seemed to work well with his good friend Saad and I'd be trusting him to repeat the dose.
Young has played some good footy for us and I'm still at a loss as to why his form
collapsed quicker than an Indian railway bridge and having the responsibility to replace JW might see him lift and get some confidence.
Sam Durdin is a good trainer and doesn't do much wrong in VFL games but my preference is still Young but if he can't find form I'd be happy to give S. Durdin a go and even play both if the opposition demanded two taller KP players if JW remained unavailable.
