Unfortunately Tabs is past his use by date, too slow and no grunt. Freddie should be back this week and Worner also. Although our defence is sensational I do think Hughes makes too many clangers so swap for Chapman. Erasmus needs another year in the WAFL he was way out of his depth yesterday. I do agree that Johnston's efforts have been pretty underwhelming and it is time to spell him also.
I havent seen enough of Cooper Simpson to say that he is ready to step up but many are huge raves for him so maybe its time to find out.
Sonny is a puzzle to me , he was one of our best 2 weeks ago but his last 2 games have been woeful. He is part of the reason we cannot kick 15 goals a game. Our small forwards seem to be judged totally on their pressure acts but two goals from Switta, Banfield, Emmett and Walters is the problem they have to give us 5 goals between them. One goal from our midfield and wings is also a big problem.
Having said that we have done wonderfully in most aspects of the game and with Darcy, Chapman, Freddie, Worner, Simpson, Brodie, Sturt, Stanley, O'Driscoll and later in the year Cox to call upon finals are looking pretty damn good!
